cell output of function

I have a function that returns a cell, but i only need what is stored in that cell saved to D. Is there a nice way of doing this ?

An ugly solution would be:

D = fDurations(I);
D = D{1};

Could i do this in a single line ?

Why is this ugly?

I feel like it should be something i could do in a single line :)
