Disappointed but undeterred, the brothers decide to wait it out and see if they can sneak in a quick round at the end of the day.

As they are waiting, they run into their old friend Denzil (Paul Barber), who is working as a caddy for one of the golfers in the tournament. Denzil tells them about a bet he has placed on his boss, and asks Del and Rodney for some advice. Del, always eager to make a quick buck, tells Denzil that he can give him some tips on how to improve his boss's game and increase his chances of winning the tournament.

Rodney, who is not much of a golfer himself, is skeptical of Del's ability to provide any useful advice. However, Del is confident in his own skills and tells Rodney that he used to be a professional golfer in his youth. Rodney doesn't believe him, and the two get into an argument over Del's proposed bet with Denzil.

The situation gets even more complicated when Del and Rodney run into an old acquaintance, Boycie (John Challis), who happens to be a member of the golf club.
