He decides to do it, and picks up the electric shaver and starts shaving his head. Suddenly, someone flicks off the shaver – it’s the boy’s dad. When the dad looks up, he sees his son, head half-shaved, and notices that his son’s hair eerily resembles his own balding head – nothing on the top, and only some on the sides. There’s an awkward moment as the two don’t know what to say, until a slightly embarrassed dad exits the bathroom, leaving the boy standing there dumbfounded.
