That's what you get, isn't it?
Z always wants to be the center of attention. That's what you (he) get(s), isn't it?
he/you depending on the larger conxext.
Advice: I would avoid translating 'hè' as 'huh'. 'isn't it' fits the context better. In my dialect of English (Great Lakes American) 'eh' or 'hey' would fit, too.

"That is what happens when somebody like Z.........."

I feel that \"dan krijg je dat he?\" refers to a situation or the result of a situation, and not a bang on the head.
I think \"grote kop vooraan staan\" refers to somebody who always wants to be in the thick of things. e.g. fights
