Shanti's party on the beach - part 2

Oliver is pointing at someone: it's Mr Spencer, the new IT teacher.
He's getting into a dinghy and he's hiding his face with his hood. He's going to a big yacht.
Oliver and Alwena are wondering where Mr Spencer is going and what he is doing in a dinghy on a sunday evening.
Oliver thinks it's fishy.
Alwena imagines he's got a very rich girlfriend but Oliver doesn't agree.
Perhaps he's very rich and he lives on the yacht but Oliver doesn't think so.
