printer... what have you.

Of course. Always forget how advanced

the family islands are.

Where's Rhoda?

She left.

Sorry. We can stay somewhere else...

No. It's fine.

I have plenty of room.

Thanks.

So. It's just us two then...

The three of us!

And loads of work.

That's true.

So, maybe if you stay a couple of

days maybe we could catch a swim in.

No I don't swim,

I don't want to spoil my hair.

You're that preacher right?

Not in here.

So what are you getting to drink?

Just a club soda bro.

Club soda?

Yeah. I'm sure.

Bahamian music.

lighthouse beach.

Good luck with that. It's quite an

excursion.

You need a strong vehicle and my

friend you ain't got one.

And you do?

I do alright.

Then can you take me there? I'll pay.

Hey, I'm coming. I'm coming.

That is for the two of us. He doesn't

look like he's in any capacity to pay.

Don't do that sh*t man.

So why you hate faggots so much?

I don't.

But you have to give people something

to hate. It keeps them together.

You understand.

Yeah, I think so.

Hey, I want to give you

money back man.
