Along with everyone else, they each have a digital display floating above their heads representing how many dollars they have; Rashad has $0.00, while his son's amount increases and decreases. They go fishing, participate in a dance competition (where his son earns money), play games, and flirt with women. The duo spend time on the pier until the sun sets on the beach.
