The exchange begins with Officer Tensing asking Dubose for his license. The officer then asks Dubose why he doesn't have a license plate on the front of his car, his reason for pulling Dubose over.

Dubose tries to show Officer Tensing the missing license plate in his glove box, but Officer Tensing instead asks for his license again.
Officer Tensing asks about a bottle on the floor. Dubose hands him what appears to be an unopened bottle of gin.
The officer then asks again about Dubose's license. When Dubose says that he can't find his card, he tells the officer "I have a license. You can run my name." Dubose then asks why he was pulled over.
Tensing asks Dubose several questions about not having his license, tells Dubose to take his seat belt off, and begins to open the car door. Dubose holds the door closed and starts his car engine. It's hard to tell what happens from there. A short altercation ensues.
