They have the shop open, but haven't had any customers yet. They're all hanging around, bored. Pope is reading and JJ, Zack, and John B are asleep while the girls are just standing around.
"It's a nice day." Kie comments.
"Yeah." Sarah says.
Brooklyn taps her nails against the counter.
"Guys." Sarah calls. "Boat. Boat." She says, the others looking out to the water and watching a boat approach.
"Holy, shit." Erin mutters. "Zack, get up!" She calls.
"Hmm?" He mumbles.
"Oh, snap!" Kie exclaims.
"It's a boat." Sarah says.
"Hey, hey, hey." Cleo calls.
"Guys, a boat!" Kie points out.
"John B, wake up. JJ, wake up." Sarah orders.
"Wake up, wake up." Brooklyn shakes her boyfriend who jolts awake.
"Somebody's here." Pope says, getting up.
"Is that a motor?" JJ asks.
"Yes." Brooklyn nods.
"Get ready, get ready, get ready." Cleo says.
"Okay, it's our first customer." Sarah grins. "It's our first customer!"
"Guys, come on! Come on!" JJ urges. John B and Pope run down the dock. "Howdy, sir!"
"How you doing?" John B calls out.
"I got your ice right here!" JJ pulls a bag out of the cooler.
"And we've got bait." Erin informs.
"Bait, beer, a fresh pot of gumbo! What do you want?" JJ asks.

"Holy, shit. You've got all this live bait?" The guy asks.
"Big and small." Cleo states.
"Oh, yeah, it's our secret sauce." JJ says.
"Give me a whole bucket." The man says.
"Coming right up." Cleo says.
"Man, beer, granny made sandwiches. I wish y'all had opened up sooner."
"We're gonna be opening up 24/7, my friend, so nothing to worry about." JJ says.
"Whoa, whoa." Brooklyn mumbles.
"Not actually true. We're not open 24/7." Pope argues.
"Still working out the hours." Kie says.
"Hey, I'm here." The guy answers his phone. "This place is the tits, Bobby. They even got pogies. A whole tank of 'em!"
"Just, uh, just keep the change." The young guy says, paying Kie for the stuff.
"Thank you, guys." Sarah tells them.
"Come back." Kie says.
They bid the three guys bye as they return to their boat and drive off.
"Boys..." John B wraps his arms around JJ and Pope's shoulders, resting his hand on Zack's. "That's the smell of success."
"First sale, baby! Whoo!" Cleo cheers.
"He said we were the tits." Sarah says.
"I know." JJ says.
"We did that. We really just did that." Erin grins.
"Yeah, we did." Zack smiles, kissing her with a loud 'mwah.'
