Tina jumps to her feet, angry, "You tipped them off!"

Gnarlak just stared at them and chuckled menacingly, then says, "And I'm getting a heavy bounty for turning in a fairy."

Newt and Tina glared at him and Rayla grabbed Newt's hand, but the glare she gave him was one of the scariest things Gnarlak had ever seen.

"You don't deserve anything that you have. Anything at all," she growled at him.

Suddenly, Jacob was there casually saying, "Sorry, Mr. Gnarlak-," and punched Gnarlak in the face. Queenie looked a little too happy for the current situation. "-reminds me of my foreman!"

Rayla suddenly became aware of the chaos taking place in the bar, loosening her grip on Newt. He suddenly ducked under the table and grabbed something. Newt quickly stood back up and grabbed Rayla and Tina, who was holding Queenie, who grabbed Jacob.

Jacob snatched a shot of gigglewater and knocked it back. He let out a loud giggle and the group Disapparated.

"This is- I gave this to- this is my blood, the vial I gave to Gnarlak. How-?"

"In the, uh, chaos, it must've slipped from his grip. I found it under the table. I figured he shouldn't have it."

She smiled at him then gave him a hug.

"Thank you," she said softly.

Jacob leaned out of the store.

"So, are you two coming?"
