It's over. After months of being sidelined by the trial of their friend Rafael, the Knights are finally free to return to England and see what headway the Dragon's Claws have made on discovering the location of the Talisman they seek.

But not everyone is so free to return. The consequence of getting Burt's assistance in disentangling Finnick from his contract and super-stardom was an ironclad agreement that allows Burt to sink his claws fully into Rafael's career. Considering that Burt knows their secret identity, non-disclosure agreement or not, the executive's renowned moral gray-itude doesn't exactly make it seem like a great plan to back out on the compromise.

They've at least been able to put off their goodbyes for a few days since the end of the trial, as Burt invited all of them to New York City for the opening of his brand new nightclub. Some of them flew out, while Archer and Des presumably drove their matching El Caminos cross-country in the days between. But now they've all met again in the Big Apple, for a celebration - and farewell of sorts.

Yeah, no, sorry, Finnick has a date. [ the look she gives the girls, both of them, just barely matches he glare she gives burt. (intimidate nat 20, 22 total) she's taking over myri's burt scaring duties, i guess. but no. sorry finnick. ]

[ buffy doesn't even get the chance to fully turn around all offended-like before des is swooping in and rescuing rafael from getting laid. what a hero. her mouth hangs briefly agape, and she scrutinizes des like she's trying to sort out his actual motives. he can't really be being helpful. that can't be all. ]

You know, that sounds like a great plan. [ she turns back to kat. ] Let's tequila.

[ rafael recognizes that save, des, bless you. however else rafael might feel about your life, he doesn't look at all enthused at the prospect of getting to know candi better. or amber. or... anyone burt has ever recommended ever. he's quick to get to his feet and follow them, saying: ] Can you believe I have never had occasion to try it before?

[nothingsodivine]

[And out they go...] I know. It's awful. Aren't you glad I came along? Except for the part where no one can do as many shots as me and you'll end up under the- [OKAY ARE THEY OUT OF BURT'S EARSHOT NOW? Good.]

He hired hookers?

[shootfirst]

Are we really acting surprised and/or morally outraged at anything Burt does anymore?

[slay]

Every time I think it can't get worse ... [ biiiig sigh. ] Let's just hope Finnick politely sends them on their way. Or ... Vi terrified them into running first chance.
