Epilogue

The sun slowly sinks over Hall Manor, as the Justice Society has gathered for a quiet evening. The cards are back out on the table, though not many are interested in them.

"How's Jenny doing?" asks Charles, glancing over at Alan.

"She's doing well, under the circumstances," says Alan.

"This was a difficult case to take," says Ted, as he deals out a new hand. "I didn't expect the ending we got."

"At least he was caught," says Al, as he starts to organize the cards dealt to him.

"Well, let's just say, I can do without some excitement for a while," says Alan, looking over his cards.

"Amen to that," says Ted, as he draws some new cards.

Looking over their cards, they place their bets. Laying down the cards, Ted wins the hand.

"Now don't go stacking the deck," says Al, winking at his friend.

"I already told you, I don't stack," says Ted, as he pulls in the money he won.

Laughter fills the room, as the team lays aside the case and enjoys each other's company.
