Michael V,O: Cards?
Tobias: Darts
Amy: And it doesn't have to involve gambling. 
Nathan: Not like money is a manjor concern for people these days.
Slade: Well its a bit to public for strip poker.
They chuckle again while Nathan gives a playful dark look.
Other Nathan: Your lucky I enjoy a good joke once in awhile.
Nathan shakes and comes back to himself sheepishly. Karina puts a hand on his shoulder comfortingly. It was a minor slip but she knows its good to support him no matter what. 
Cage: So... before we accidently start a bar fight lets pick something. 
Tobias is thoughtful.
Tobias: How about Snap.
People give him a look but he is eyeing a game table in the bar full of salvaged games from just about everywhere. Checkers, chess, Jenja, a few board games and card sets and yes even an Uno Deck.
James: What are we six?
Moe: Well I am game.
They all look at him in surprise but he is genuinly smiling, apriciating their efforts. 
Moe: Lets just be civil about it.
Tobias returns with the deck. 
Cage: How will we do this?
Tobias: 4 against 4 and winner from each round face of till there is one winner. 
Slade: Sounds like football.
Everyone looks amoung themselves and smiles. Yes this sounds like fun.
Moe: Well Tobias you are holding the cards so you deal.
We then have a montage of the games going on, all clean good fun between friends. In the end we see Moe is the final winner.
Slade: Well would you look at that, for a man who never gambled in his life you have a good poker face.
Nathan: Well, considering he doent drink either you might have another disadvantage. 
Moe: Luck, nothing more or less. 
He looks at the time and wee see its quite late now.
Moe: I think its time for some rest now.
Adam: Shit, your right....
Slade: Bull, the night is...
He yawns and Cage slaps his back happily.
Cage: Come on, ill get you home... less you want to end up in a bin or the drunk tank. 
He helps him up and everyone departs offering goodbyes and prep for the business of tomorrow. Moe watches it all with a smile; he can almost forget they are in the calm ocean before another potential storm.
Almost.
Fade to black.
