'That's a wrap folks!'

A cheer erupted after that which seemed to spread like wildfire, seeming to leave a miniature celebration in its wake. The last several weeks had brought a great deal of uncertainty, and the knowledge that there would definitely be a paycheck coming their way was the best news many of them could have hoped for.

Danny, Sawyer, and the gang found each other. Their joy was so abundant they could almost taste it, and they began pulling each other (even Cranston) into tight hugs. No matter the cost of their coup, this was done. They had finished this.

They were primed and ready to head out for a drink, a final hurrah to celebrate their finished product, when they heard a voice call out behind them.

'Excuse me, may I speak to Danny and Sawyer? It should only take a minute.' LB stood behind them, clearly looking as uncomfortable with the celebrations as any man in that situation could. They could only imagine how furious Muntz must have been - There was a huge difference in emotion in that room.

Danny and Sawyer exchanged weary looks as they approached him. It wasn't that they expected to get away totally unacathed; they just hoped to maybe get a couple of days where they didn't have to think about it. As if they had ever been so lucky.

Sawyer was the first to step forward. 'So, what's the bad news.'

LB chuckled. 'Well, I don't know if I would call it bad...Listen, Muntz isn't happy. If he had it his way there would be no animals in Hollywood. To be blunt, he wants you both to have your asses handed to you.'

'I'm not sure how this isn't bad news.'

'I'm getting there. The point is, we aren't listening. Mammoth Pictures is much more than him, and you two are worth ten times what he is. He might have had the kind of clout he thinks he has ten years ago, but not now.'

Danny paused, a grin starting to spread across his face, 'So what you're saying is...'

LB, despite his best efforts, couldn't help but return the smile, 'What I'm saying is...you two need not worry about your futures here at Mammoth Pictures.'

Before he knew it LB had two sets of arms thrown around him, and was drawn into one of the tightest hugs the man had ever experienced. Sawyer leaned forward to peck him on the cheek, 'Thank you Mr. Mammoth, you won't regret this!'

'I know that.'


Neither Danny or Sawyer had any real plan for how long they were going to stay in Boston. The initial plan had been to just stay around for as long as Jared needed them, but that moment came sooner than any of them had expected. Soon he was back working, and they were leaving.

They left on a fine Saturday morning, and it seemed as if Danny was left to do most of the carrying of supplies. 'I'll never not be surprised by the amount of stuff you can accumulate in such a short time'

'Quiet you', she said with a laugh, before turning back to her Dad, 'You're sure you'll be okay here without us?'

It was amazing how much better Jared looked. His weight was up and the colour was back in his face; he seemed to be carrying the same sort of dignity with him that he did before he got sick. 'Of course. I'm starting to work again; I can't have you two sitting here bored all day. Who knows what you'll get up to?'

Sawyer laughed, giving her father's arm a gentle squeeze. 'And you swear you won't overwork yourself again?'

'Definitely not. I got used to being lazy, I don't know if I could handle stress again.'

Sawyer heard Danny loading their final supplies into a taxi and begin the climb up their front steps. 'Well in that case, we have nothing left to say but goodbye.

Jared and Sawyer hugged each other tightly, holding on for just a few seconds longer than would be okay in any situation besides that one, Jared gave her one final squeeze as he let go, 'I'll be sure to visit more, okay.'

'And I'll be sure to call more. I love you, Dad.'

'I love you too, girl.'

Jared looked over to see Danny in the corner, shuffling uncomfortably at the scene he saw before him, 'Sorry, didn't mean to intrude.'

Jared laughed, motioning him towards him. They had gotten close over the last while, but he never ceased to be amused by Danny's discomfort when he believed himself to be bothering him, 'Come here Dan, give me a proper goodbye.'

Danny pulled the other man into a hug, 'Thanks for having me Jared, there was no need too.'

'Happy to have you here. Besides, Sawyer probably would have killed me if she didn't have you to keep her company.'

The two broke apart, and Jared glanced between the other two people happily. 'Be sure to call me if any of the things Danny and I spoke about come to fruition.'

Sawyer looked between the two, smirking, 'Oh? And what exactly were-'

Danny launched forward to grab her hand, 'Nothing, not important. Hey, we'd better get out of here!' He got this all out in a rush, dragging her towards the cab.

Sawyer laughed at that, 'You two are so strange
