What directors shout when the last scene is complete and cameras stop rolling.

Explanation:

"Finish filming" is a classic example of a double-meaning clue. In movie production, "wrap" is the command given when filming is complete, signaling the end of a shoot. The word also literally means to finish or cover something, which ties back to the idea of completing a task—like wrapping up work. It’s a straightforward but clever play on industry jargon.
