"you sure he got everything?" Kie asked John B who was laying on the ground staring up at the ceiling.
"every bar. the whole enchilada." he said taking his cast off grunting throwing it. "look, it's not like i expected a happy ending or some shit."
"John B—"
"what, Kie? it's a hairline fracture. who cares?" John B said annoyed.
JJ and Caroline sat quietly together smoking a blunt that he had brought looking at their two friends.
"you should care. your arms gonna be messed up for life." Kie said.
"it's fine. see." John B replied bringing his hand up wiggling his fingers.
"guys!" Pope yelled running over to the group all sweaty. "oh! oh! oh, God. i ran all the way here." he bended over to catch his breath.
"you all right?" JB asked.
"how was the interview, Pope?" JJ asked.
"don't ask." Pope replied, "JB... look, i'm sorry, dude. about everything."
"it's fine." mumbled John B.
"but- but i don't have a lot of time, and- and i have information that is tactically relevant. so, before i had my interview, my dad said he was going down to the private airstrip to cut palms for Cameron's big plane. because it was too heavy, it needed a longer landing strip to take off. so, i'm there sitting in my interview, thinking to myself, "hm. why would Cameron need a longer airstrip to take off? what could be so heavy to weight it down?" Pope explained.
everyone sat up thinking the same thing, Caroline jumped off the ledge her and JJ were on looking at Pope.
"gold." she said, Pope jumped around moving his arms.
"exactly." he replied. "guys, this is our chance but it leaves tonight, and we have to go." Pope continued.
"guys, we can't give up now." Kie said standing up, Caroline kicked her sandals off slipping on her boots she left under the bench.
"what's the plan, big man?" JJ asked looking at John B.
"we're gonna steal that shit back." John B smirked looking at his friends, they all smiled looking at him.
"let's do this!" Pope said running off with JJ and Kie.
"come on, boys and girl!" Kie smiled.
Caroline smiled at John B hugging him tightly, he hugged her smiling finally getting things back on track. they all ran to the van jumping in heading straight toward the airport.

"we go in there, guns a-blazin', make Ward Cameron beg for mercy, abscond with as much gold as possible and vámonos, get the hell out of there." JJ explained loading up his gun.
