Ready

Jason hesitates on the way downstairs and turns, staring after Dalton. "I will," he replies quietly. "...I will."

Giving a sigh, he keeps up his route until he's downstairs and finds Katie. "Hey you. All set or what?"


A smile creases Carson's lips as he sees the locket. Just looking at it for several moments, he finally reaches out to take it, letting it dangle and sparkle in the light. "Old and new... I like that."

Slipping it over his head, he tucks it safely underneath his t-shirt. "Thanks, Misty." His thanks meant so much more. It wasn't the necklace he was grateful for... it was the trust he'd gained back. The trust he'd broken so severely. It seemed like an eternity ago. All he could do now was strive to live up to who he could be, and who Misty wanted him to be.

Seeing his bracelet on her wrist, he cocks his head. "Guess a bloke really can have third chances, huh?"

He reaches out and pulls Misty roughly to him, gazing down into her eyes. "One for the road." Leaning in he gives her one last kiss before he has to leave. But he just doesn't want to let go.


Rick comes into the room, his eyes down on paperwork he picked up on his way back into the office. Looking up, he spots Misty and Carson, and he lets out a groan. "You know... I hated it when you two were at odds... but I forgot it would be like this again if you got back together."

Carson's laugh breaks up the kiss and he hugs Misty tightly. "Say what you want, Doc - you're not gonna scare me away."

Rick can't help his grin as he returns to his work. "Good."

Carson finally knows he has to pull away. Giving Misty's cheek a brush with his hand, he backs off. "See you soon."

Letting her go, he turns and heads out of the infirmary, heading downstairs. It was down to business.

Arriving downstairs, he meets up with Jason and Katie. "Alright you two. Let's load up. Hal's gonna drive us, and we're all set." He looks down at the table, seeing the IDs. "Mm... nice work. Oh, and by the way, Reese has been busy all day getting our contact for when we get to Australia. His name is Ryder and he's gonna be our 'tour guide.'"

Hal comes around the corner, keys in hand. "Ready?"

Jason looks to Katie then Carson, then back to Hal. "Ready."


Laura glances down at her watch. "Oh, shoot." She was late. She was supposed to meet Nate for their special supper and she'd lost track of time. He'd already left hours ago.

Quickly shutting down her computer, she makes fast work of getting out of TJY for the night. She wanted to stay and find out more about Jason and Katie's mission, but maybe she could just forget about work for a while and relax. At the very least, Nate could always make her smile.

Getting home, she finds a nice blouse and slacks, takes a quick shower, and is out the door again. She knew the restaurant she was supposed to meet Nate at, and within fifteen minutes, she was there. Parking her car, she goes inside and looks around, not knowing if he was there yet or not.
