The cenote scene represents how Ernesto is willing to sacrifice everyone around him even and for success.
Her father David got married again to Christina McLarty in 2015.

This shows he's being forgotten, and once he is remembered once again by the Riveras, his bones revert to white, he gains a pair of shoes, and his clothes are good as new.
