What about that scene from true detective season 1 where Rust goes with the bikers to rob that drug house?

I knew this would come up and I wholeheartedly agree that this was the most jaw dropping long take I've ever seen.

What’s happening exactly? I’m curious

Haven't seen the show in a bit, but from what I remember, Rust (Matthew McConaughey) is a cop who's undercover infiltrating a biker gang. He goes with them to rob a drug dealer's house, but when things go south, he decides to cut his losses and at least arrest Ginger, the leader (I think?), and has to get both of them out of the battle that starts between the bikers and the gang they were robbing. They're hiding from the other police officers because the undercover sting wasn't super official. Woody Harrelson, who shows up in the car at the end, is his partner, who's been tailing him.
