In the last days of July 1944, in an atmosphere of uncertainty and expectation, the soldiers of the Home Army were preparing for the decisive battle. In one of Warsaw's premises, a confectionery on Solna Street, a group of comrades from the platoon meet to discuss the current situation and make an important decision. Tadeusz "Naprawa" throws the slogan: "We do Germans". During the occupation, disarming German soldiers was strictly forbidden, threatening with repressions. However, in the last days of July, the atmosphere changes, and the risk seems to be lower than the need to acquire weapons.

Armed with pistols, "Naprawa" and "Gil" go to the streets of Warsaw to realize their plan. Not far away, on Solna Street, they encounter two non-commissioned officers of the Wehrmacht. "Naprawa" gives a signal and then draws a weapon, shouting "Hände hoch!". At the same time, "Gil" shows the Germans his visa. The non-commissioned officers, surprised, raise their hands. One of the soldiers tries to escape, but "Naprawa" holds him at gunpoint. The action is successful, and the Polish soldiers acquire valuable weapons.
