NOTE: As I was writing the end, that song came to mind, and since it's the Christmas season, I put it in! Anyone know where the song originally came from? (clue; it's NOT a Christmas movie!) Answer, and I'll give another chapter of the next story!

TRIVIA: What is Sue's favorite Christmas song? It's mentioned in several different ways in the show! Correct answer gets the first chapter of the next story!

?-?

"SAM 3-6, you ready?" Mya asked from the surveillance van.

"Affirmative." Jack replied. "Ready and waiting at the front door. SAM 3-1 and SAM 3-3, you ready?"

"Affirmative, waiting at the back door." Myles replied.

"Alright, on my call," Mya said, watching all the men and their body cams intently. "3, 2, 1, go!"

"FBI" The agents shouted as they busted the doors down.

?-?

Early Monday morning, all was back to normal, and Sue was staring off into space. "YOU OK YOU?" Amy asked, seeing her.

Sue nodded. "THIS PAST WEEK THINKING." She replied.

"UNDERSTAND." She replied. "IF SOMEONE ASKED ME IF ME WANT UNDERCOVER JOB, ME ANSWER NO."

"REALLY?" Sue asked. "ME THINK YOU GOOD UNDERCOVER!"

Amy laughed. "NO."

"OK, NEXT TIME ME NOT ASK FOR YOU." She replied.

"YOU ASK FOR ME?" She asked, not believing what she saw.

"YES! US-TWO UNDERCOVER, WOW."

Amy laughed. "ME THINK LIKE MAYBE."

"OK!" Sue replied. "NEXT TIME, ME ASK!"

"GOOD! THANK YOU!

"OK, you two. Let's get back to work!" Tara said and signed, seeing her coworker friends distracted from their task.

"Yes, we should, shouldn't we?" Sue replied.

The women smiled, then got on with their tasks.

?-?

"We have your fingerprint on the bomb. You can't handle little tiny pieces with gloves, can you, eh?" Bobby asked in the interrogation room. They had decided to take the rest of their Sunday off, and interrogate their arrestee in the morning.

"We know it was you, Gary. Did Cara hire you?" Jack asked.

"No, of course not! Keep my cousin out of this!" Gary exclaimed. It was the first comment he made since the arrest.

The two agents looked at each other. Gary virtually confessed, they just needed a more concrete confession.

"Did she tell you that she had to take a job she hated just because she had to make some sort of money to keep her home?" Bobby tried.

"No, worse." Gary replied.

"What happened, Gary? The more you tell us, the more we will be able to help you.

He hesitated, but decided to tell them anyways. "When I got out, you know what she told me?"

The two agents shook their head, not knowing what he was going to say.

"That she and that woman that hurt her all those years ago reconciled, and she works for her! For her! That woman damaged Cara's entire career, and they reconcile! I knew I had to do something, she can't get away with it." Gary explained.

"So you were threatening her, and when that didn't work, you set up a bomb?" Jack asked.

He nodded. "What else could I do? I needed to make sure she knew I was serious!

Cara, who was watching behind the glass, shed a tear, watching her cousin, along with Francesca and Mya. "I told him because I thought he'd be happy for me. He really is a sweet man. This rage isn't him. Prison did this."

"But he was in jail for making a bomb?" Mya asked.

Cara nodded. "Yes, but he wasn't going to set it off to hurt anyone. He was an inventor, and experimenter. An officer came around his house at the wrong time, and arrested him for making a bomb, saying he intended to hurt people, when he didn't want any of that. I guess prison was worse than I thought. He wouldn't let me explain that I made the stuff up about Francesca, I did. She didn't do anything to me. I wanted someone to blame for my stupid mistake. I was young, naïve. Gary wouldn't let me explain. He was furious, but I never thought he would do something like this!"

"Well, at least we caught him before he actually hurt someone. And we can make sure he gets mental help. Maybe that'll help the next time he gets out of jail." Mya replied.

"If he gets out." Cara replied, tears now falling steadily down her cheeks as she looked at her cousin. "We were best friends at one time." She added, her voice breaking.

"It's OK." Francesca said, taking her friend into a hug. We will get through this."

She nodded through her tears. "I hope so."

?-?

"I thought I'd find you here." Josh said, walking into the dance studio room later that evening.

Mya stopped dancing at the sound of his voice, and looked at him and smiled through her mask. "Am I that predictable?"

"Sometimes." He replied, shrugging. "And sometimes I feel like I don't know you at all."

"I guess that happens to everyone." She said as she walked over to quiet her music down.

"You really like this, don't you?" He asked as they both sat down on the bench.

She smiled widely and nodded. "Yeah. It was a lot of fun."

"But you never wanted to pursue it as a career?"

"Oh gosh, no." She scoffed. "It's just something fun to do."

"Since it's so fun, would you like to teach me some steps?" Josh asked.

Mya smiled widely, then jumped up. "Sure!"

He laughed at her excitement.

?-?

"Hya, darlin'!" Bobby said as the FaceTime call from Darcy connected.

"What on earth is that?" Darcy replied in disgust, seeing his goatee.

"You don't like it?" He asked."

"No, and you better not have that when you come here for Christmas!" She replied.

"Oh, so I'm coming there for Christmas?" He asked.

"Do you have a better plan?" She asked.

"Yeah, come here. Then I don't have to take any vacation days."

"In other words, you'd be working the entire time I was there." She said, a bit annoyed that he would suggest that.

He paused, thinking. "Probably. I guess you're right."

She smiled. "Now, that's what I like to hear!"

?-? LISTEN TO: Baby It's Cold Outside (any version- I have 2, but I've probably heard about 10 others :) )

"I wonder what Howie is doing?" Sue mused as she and Jack sat on the couch.

"Probably hobnobbing with all the celebrities, having the time of his life." Jack replied.

"I'll miss him. You think we could visit him sometime next year, more towards the end of his filming stint?" She asked.

Jack shrugged. "Sure."

Sue smiled, settling into their comfortable position. They stayed like that for a few minutes, quiet. Then Jack touched her so she knew he wanted to say something. She positioned herself so she could see.

"You want to sign-sing your favorite Christmas song? Maybe teach me how to do it too?"

Sue smiled widely, sitting up fully, getting ready to teach him. After that song, she taught other ones as well. They were signing Christmas songs all night, until they got too tired to do so.

"That was fun. But now it's late. I should get back home." She said, getting up. "We still have to work tomorrow!"

He nodded, getting up as well to say goodbye to her. "I wish you didn't have to leave." He said as she was putting on her coat.

She smiled as she put on her shoes. "Me too. Soon." With that, she opened the front door, closed it behind her, and walked to the car in the cold night. Jack watched her from the window on the door, wishing he could travel 6 months forward in time. But then he smiled. Tomorrow was a new day, a day where he could figure out how to get the Consultants to work on their next current case. That would always be something that would motivate him to get up in the morning. And now he couldn't wait for morning.

THE END
