The problem, as others have already covered, is lack of communication and understanding of the dive plan.
The next time you see that you are headed down the same road, should you not want to take over the briefing, just ask pointed questions you learned might be helpfull from this experience.
My other advice is for you and your buddy to weight for freediving and practice entrys, exits and diving in the surf without the SCUBA gear. What you learn will help you when diving with tanks, and it's fun.
