THE NEXT DAY AT JAYSON'S AND MAVIS'S MOBILE HOUSE . . .
In Jayson's and Mavis's sunny bedroom, Jayson is asleep, gently laying sideways in bed.
Mavis plays electro-pop instrumental music on her phone at a high volume, causing Jayson to wake up and sits up straight.
{Mavis Outfit}
"Wake up, sleepyhead." said Mavis and stops her electro-pop instrumental music on her iPhone.
"Geez, Mavis." Jayson said. "Scared the hell out of me."
"Well, you did it to me, so, I got back at you." Mavis said.
Jayson and Mavis exchange playful chuckles with each other.
"Did you really think I forgot, Jay?" Mavis asked.
"Apparently, you haven't." Jayson said and smiles at her. "Mrs. Mavis Haddock-Reynolds."
Jayson and Mavis exchange smiles at each other. And then, he remembers his job.
"Oh, shit. Mr. Cheetam." Jayson said.
"Don't worry, Frankie and I. We covered for you." Mavis said, sitting on the ottoman. "Mr. Cheetam asked about you, and Frankie and I told him that you were on a trip with your grandma Melissa."
"Okay, I gotta go. I'll see you later at the Golden Griddle." Jayson said.
"You too." Mavis said.
Jayson and Mavis shares a kiss and he gets up, walking away.

AT THE SILVERTROPLIS NEWSPAPER INC. . . .
Jayson sits at his computer desk, working on his photo portfolio.
{Jayson Outfit}
Mr. Cheetam steps out of his office. "Mr. Reynolds? My office."
"Yes, sir." Jayson said, getting up from his office with his photo portfolio.
Now, in Mr. Cheetam's office, Mr. Cheetam sits behind his desk, looking at Jayson's photos in his photo portfolio.
Jayson looks out of the window with his arms folded.
"How was your trip with your grandmother?" Mr. Cheetam asked.
"It was awesome. We ate a lot at the buffet and then, we had these margaritas. My grandma got me into dancing. It was so much fun." Jayson told him with a small smile.
Mr. Cheetam just looks at him.
"Sorry." Jayson apologized.
"Very good photos, Mr. Reynolds." Mr. Cheetam said, gently hands Jayson an envelope of money of $200.
Jayson gently takes the envelope of money. "Thanks. Can I ask you a crazy question, Mr. Cheetam?"
"What is it, Mr. Reynolds?" Mr. Cheetam asked.
"How much money do you have? Because you give me money for my photos?" Jayson asked.
Mr. Cheetam looks at Jayson and laughs. Jayson chuckles to himself. And Mr. Cheetam stops laughing.
"Sorry I asked." Jayson said.
"I have enough, Mr. Reynolds." Mr. Cheetam said. "You're dismissed."
"Yes, sir." Jayson said. "What happened to Pepper Bloom? I thought she worked here?"
"She worked here temporarily and she quit. I don't know why though, but she was a good photographer, but not good as you, Mr. Reynolds." Mr. Cheetam said.
"Okay." Jayson said, and walks out Mr. Cheetam and walks away.

"Thank you, Super Knight, for your help." Sheriff Susan Reynolds thanked him with a small smile.
"You're welcome, Sheriff." Super Knight told her in his deep voice modulator with a small smile.
"Thank you for all of your help, Super Knight. We all missed you." Deputy Tammy Campbell said.
"I appreciate the thanks, but I can't take all the credit. You and the Sheriff shares the credit with me." Super Knight said.
"You're being modest, Super Knight." Deputy Tammy Campbell said with a smile.
"We'll take the bank robbers to prison and the duffle bags of money back to the bank." Sheriff Susan Reynolds said.
"Okay, then." Super Knight said and flies away.

"Do I need to separate you guys?" Mavis whispered to them.
"Nope." Jayson whispered.
"Okay, then, hush up and watch the movie." Mavis whispered.
"One thing, you shouldn't do is wander off by yourself. Because shit always happens." Jayson whispered.
