During the tournament, Pryce puts undue pressure on Santi by making a bet and chiding him when he falls behind, which reminds Santi of his father who abandoned him. This causes Santi to walk away frustrated and ignore Pryce's coaching.
After walking away from Pryce, Santi meets Zero, who encourages him to forget about Pryce's expectations and play his own game. This support helps Santi recover his confidence and play exceptionally well, ultimately winning the tournament.
Mitts gets stuck under the bed in his RV and asks Elena for help. Elena tries to rescue him herself but eventually has to call for more help. Before that, she makes a deal with Mitts asking him to be more civil with her and Santi, which Mitts agrees to, acknowledging the need for civility given the group's dynamics.
While testing new clubs, Pryce tries to impart advice about mindfulness on the golf course, attempting to help Santi improve his game through mental focus and presence.
The episode suggests that with Pryce's current attitude being difficult, Mitts and Elena will likely have to assume the responsibility of keeping the group civil and making things work, especially considering the already tumultuous dynamic between Santi and Pryce.
