Danny, Ed and Sam travel to the New Orleans Montecito in search for a gambler with a high debt, who is being sought by a criminal.

The gang tries to figure out the tactics of card counters. Nessa has an unwanted admirer. Danny finds a scam artist. Mary gives an employee orientation to topless women.

Ed uses his past connections and some old-school tactics to hunt down the man who stole a priceless work of art from the Montecito. His frantic search for the piece leads to an uncomfortable reunion with his former partner Jack Keller, who cannot be trusted. Danny and Mike are dispatched to deal with a fight between their tenants and find themselves smack in the middle of a lovers' quarrel. Sam puts together an exotic weekend for a young couple in love that ends with only Sam smiling.

The Montecito experiences several financial perils. Ed Deline worries about chip cheaters who already got away with $1,200,000, and orders to divert owner Monica's attention -she hasn't even mastered the essential element of fun- to a gambler who seems to keep winning honestly, already for $300,000, while he and Mike trace all people plausibly involved, the manufacturing company and even the whereabouts of only five machines which could do the job, the takes drastic action... Meanwhile Mike and Danny close in on pick-pockets. Danny's accountant insists he should sell his late dad's house, which increased in value from almost nothing to about $1,500,000, and thus discovers a recent picture on pa's bed-stand with a woman he doesn't know at all.
