It’s Christmas Eve and the team is home for the holiday.

They have a fire burning in the fire pit. Colorful Christmas lights decorate the deck and the edge of the roof. The whole house on the inside was decorated. A Christmas tree in the living room, stockings hung by the fireplace, twinkling lights make the house have a warm and cozy feeling. A cooler of bottles of beer sits on the nearby table. Everyone just relaxing and having a good time.

Jack is telling some funny story about Christmas when he was a kid. Wearing a Santa hat on his head. Bose is wearing an ugly Christmas tee shirt seeing as it is too hot in Los Angeles to wear an ugly Christmas sweater.

Mac is mostly listening. Smiling to himself and chuckling with the group. He has a notebook in his lap. Drawing out chemistry compounds on the paper to help his mind relax as he sits back in his wooden chair. His elbow resting on the armrest and his head resting on his fist.
