As the finale ends and the full cast lines up to take a bow, James finds himself standing next to Idina. Everyone grasps hands for the final few bows of the night. His hand encompasses hers, and he feels the slight tremor. He tightens his grip to counteract and she quickly releases his hand. She smiles a little lopsidedly, as if bringing the other side up to even takes more of an effort than she can give. The audience whoops and hollers, and the cast smiles back at them. One last bow and they file off stage, waving as they go.
