As the credits rolled and the French production credits flashed on the screen, Luc felt the quiet resolution of the episode. Earn and Van, under the stars, figuring out their lives. He closed the media player, the file name Atlanta.S04E07.FRENCH.HDTV sitting neatly in his "Watched" folder.

Luc sat in his apartment in Lyon, the blue light of his monitor reflecting off his glasses. It was 3:00 AM.

He didn't need to catch a snipe. He just needed forty minutes of a world that looked nothing like his own, yet felt exactly like home.
