Differs from WhereAreTheyNowEpilogue in that it's a full scene that shows interaction between characters and most likely dialogue. See also DeadlyDistantFinale (when the Distant Finale shows how the entire cast dies), FastForwardToReunion (when a Distant Finale is used to reunite characters who separated at the end of a series) and DistantSequel (when a work with a Distant Finale recieves a sequel). Might suffer from ModernStasis. If the distance is long enough, you can expect BabiesEverAfter. Contrast (of course) DistantPrologue.
