Joey looks forward to being a judge on the Miss Southwestern USA beauty pageant in Las Vegas, asked by Bobbie instead of Corbin Bernsen. Alex finds it degrading but is convinced to join by one of the perks, Céline Dion concert tickets. Gina was eager to come, believed they'd have to force Michael but is delighted when her nerdy son turns out to be a casino regular under the alias Dr. Rodriguez, using a mathematical blackjack system. Joey sleeps with a beauty before realizing she's finalist Miss Laughlin, Gina encourages his solution: do them all, but there is a teen section too and when Miss Laughlin is disqualified... Michael reluctantly accepts to let Gina and Joey 'Dusty' play along in a counting cards operation, but despite his warning that getting caught means being dragged to a back room where scary things happen they are inadvertently betrayed knowing each-other by Alex; they hope to get off if they look too stupid to pull it off.
