During the week the convict lives with the Cajun man, the pair spend every day out on the water hunting alligators. Through gestures, the pair decide to split all the money they make from the alligator hides 50/50, even though the convict is completely ignorant of how much an alligator skin is worth. Doing the hard labor with the Cajun brings the convict a new sense of pride in himself and a feeling of belonging, even if it is to a very small team.
