BACK ON SET THE VERY NEXT DAY, WITH A HUGE HANGOVER, TAYLOR MADE HER WAY TO HER FATHER'S TRAILER, WHERE HE'D CALLED HER TO BRIEF UP ON THE NEXT STUNT THEY WERE GOING TO EXECUTE, AND ALSO GIVE HER NEWS ABOUT AN UPCOMING GIG HE WAS PLANNING.

Taylor was her father's daughter. She was raised by him, after all, to love giving to others. The Cruise's way of giving to people was filming movies. It was their job, and they loved doing it, especially when they were together.

Taylor was dressed in the 'Hunt's' outfit, wearing black from top to bottom, the bomber leather jacket fitting perfectly. Her hair was down as she always kept it whenever they'd do Mission Impossible films, the audience seemed to love the idea of a woman with heels on fighting people. Frankly, she couldn't disagree with them, it made her feel like a badass.

Knocking on the trailer door, she hears a faint 'come in' from the other side of the door.

And there he was. Her father sat on the chair with the hair and make-up artist stood right behind him, touching him up before the next shot.

"Hey, sweetheart!" Tom gives her his toothy smile, the one she always loved, the one she grew up admiring.

"Hi, dad!" Taylor moves behind him, hugging him, smiling as he kisses her arms wrapped around him, giving her a huge smile which said he was so proud of her.

"I'm so proud of you. You deserve it, honey, everyone knows how hard you've worked to bring 'Archer' where it is." Taylor gives her father a kiss on the cheek, squeezing his hand in gratefulness of his support.

No matter what, he'd always been by her side, the shoulder to cry on, especially after her mother passed away. Before she passed, he wasn't as around, but later, they became each other's best friends. The only ones they had in the world to call family. Her other brother and sisters weren't as close to her, or their father, but they kept in contact.

She was the only one who decided to be with her father, and she'd never regret that decision, no matter what.

"What's this about jumping off a cliff, huh?" Taylor gets straight into the point, taking a seat on the chair beside him, looking at him through the mirror with a pointed look. She knew her father was a daredevil, and that he absolutely adored his job, but sometimes, he'd get injured, and he was getting older too, which worried Taylor.

"Ah, I bet Pegg told on me." Tom gives her the usual smirk, crossing his arms over his chest, pouting his lips.

He always pouted his lips before he'd ask her to do the stunt with him.

"And I'm glad he did." Taylor shakes her head, sending the Cruise smirk back to him.

"Well, it's, basically, you'll have control of the helicopter, right? We're gonna have to crash it into the one in front of us, and then jump out. You'll have the cord on, as always, you just have to jump and 'climb' back up to grab the detonator, which is a few feet above us, and remove the coil from it. Simple." Tom gives her a simple, innocent smile.

Taylor shakes her head, smiling at her father's usual antics at convincing her to do the stunt with him. "How do you always manage to get me to do these things?" She raises her eyebrows in disbelief at herself actually agreeing to do all the stunts he'd ever asked her to do.

"Well, you do get to kick Cavill in the face." Her father shrugs nonchalantly. Taylor holds her forehead in her hands, rubbing a hand down her face.

"Why didn't you start with that?" Taylor gives him a huge smile, holding her hands out as if she was shrugging dramatically.

The father and daughter end up laughing their way out of the trailer, his hand over her shoulder, holding her close.

"ACTION!" MCQUARRIE YELLS OUT, AND THE SCENE BEGINS.

Taylor and her father were in the helicopter. 

She had complete control of it, as she already had a flying license. She always loved to fly. Every time the father daughter duo would fly around the world for events or shootings, she'd always tell him, 'I'll have a flying license before you.' 

And it was true. 

Her father was getting his final license in the next few months.

Taylor had hers'  since she was twenty six, and right now, she was thirty four.

She was ahead of her father in some way, and she was extremely proud about that fact. But, she also adored flying. If she wasn't an actor, she'd definitely gone after aviation, possibly end up in the Navy. Another way of giving back.

Taylor pushes the throttle to her front with large force, crashing the helicopter into another one in front of them. Technically, it wasn't an actual entire helicopter in front of them, it was like a remote controlled vehicle which someone back on set was controlling.

The Cruise's weren't too much of daredevils either, to just go about crashing helicopters, jeez.

The helicopter with the Cruises in it crashes with the other, sending them whirling around towards the nearby terrain, where it kept spinning nearly eight times, before stopping right before the cliff's edge.

The father and daughter grab the top of the helicopter to steady themselves, and each other's hand to make sure the other was safe, grunting and groaning at the sharp twists of the helicopter.

The helicopter behind them, in which Henry was, slowly twisted through the snow, before clashing into the helicopter the Cruise's, or rather, the Hunts were trying to catch their breaths, trying removing their seat belts off. The seatbelt was not supposed to be removed, since they were going to go further down the cliff, completely vertical into a small tunnel formed by the terrain.

The father and daughter push each other's chests to the seats, trying to protect each other, not only as actors, but as family, heavy pants and breaths escaping them.

The audience loved seeing the duo on screen together. They seemed to have the real natural chemistry not many could capture between a spy father and daughter duo's, but at the end of the day, they were Cruise's. 

If anyone could capture such relationships, it was them, Taylor and Tom.

There was a bit of distance between Henry and their helicopter's, but it was soon covered when the Cruise's helicopter fell further down the rock tunnel, and the two let out loud yells, panting.

They could hear Henry's screaming from below, where his character would get sprayed with boiling hot 'fuel' in the face, burning his side.

Looking down at Henry, then back to each other, the father and daughter sigh deeply in unison before nodding at each other and unclicking their seatbelts, falling through the open space created between the two helicopters. 

Tom grabbed ahold of the detonator's strap which was around Henry, and Taylor grabbed a support handle near Henry side.

Henry utters his line, trying to hold his weight as his arms are spread out to the side of the helicopter, keeping him in place, "Why won't you two die?" 

He grunts out, before the helicopter falls, sending the three of them tumbling down the cliff, still inside the vehicle.

Tom is thrown out of the helicopter, landing safely back on the cliff. He pulls out Taylor too, and she lands right beside him on her back, actually groaning in pain at the hard rock beneath her.

Taylor thinks to herself, well, here come the bruises. Every single time the Cruise's would do stunts, she'd always end up with a bruise.

She looks to her father, rather Ethan, and closes her eyes, taking a deep breath, before she gets up slowly on her feet, pulling her old man up with her. The two nod at each other. The side of Henry's face had 'burnt' off, probably due to the hot 'fuel' which was sprayed on him earlier. The stunt coordinators had confirmed he was getting hit by just colored water.

The three of them look at each other for a moment, before running towards the detonator from opposite sides.

"And, cut!" McQuarrie yells out again, clapping his hands at the trio, "Well done, you guys, we're done for the day."

And with that, Taylor pulls her father and Henry into a side hug, walking with them towards the director, who smiles at their antics.

Work was always fun.
