Danger Looming

Casey loses more money gambling! Elwood asks him if he's out of his mind. He takes the battery from Casey's laptop!

When he recommends Casey get the money to pay back the people he owes, Casey confesses to stealing his mom's mad money. He asks him how he stole the money. He explains, and says he thought he could put it back before she noticed. He says if he comes clean now it will only make things worse. Elwood asks what he's going to do. He says he'll go back to the dorm to try to figure something out, but Elwood says he can't go back there because some guys are there looking for him. He says they want the money he owes them.

Amber Alert!

At Java, Casey asks Maddie if she wants anything, but she says she's okay. He meets Elwood and another guy outside. He gives the other guy some of the money he stole from Margo, and hands the rest to Elwood.

Thy Shall Not Steal!

At the dorms, Casey pays Elwood back with a little extra. On his way out, another man meets him at the door and says he'll take his payment as well. The man takes the rest of the money from Casey.

Will Punches Adam!

At the dorms, Casey arrives to find Elwood gambling. Elwood is about to fold, but Casey says he's played the guy before and knows he'll fold. Elwood is hesitant but continues to play. The guy folds and Elwood wins the pot! Casey can't help but get involved as he takes over for Elwood. When Casey loses a large amount of Elwood's money, Elwood gets upset saying he told him not to do it. He promises he'll pay him back. After Elwood leaves angry, Casey continues to stay glued to the laptop. Again, he loses more money! Maddie knocks at the door. When he answers, she says she thought about everything and came to some conclusions. "Do you want to hear them?" she inquires. He says he's busy. She says then she'll keep it simple.

"You were right. You said you were going to stop gambling, and you said that you would stop lying, and that's all I need. I trust you," she continues.
"I'm sorry I pushed you, and if you need more time that's fine."
"No, you were there for me after all those lies I told, and now it's my turn to be here for you."
"Really?"
"Yeah, as long as it's really over, and no more hiding things from each other. Promise?" she says with a hug.
"Yeah, I promise," he answers with a kiss.

Katie Holds the Proof!

Elwood asks Casey to leave his name out of the gambling deal when he tells his parents. He says he will.

After the introduction, Holden and Lily dance. Faith and Luke watch. Luke asks if she's going to stop getting all freaked out that they're going to break up again.

Adam Pays Off Another Gambling Debt for Casey

At the dorms, Casey arrives to find Elwood packing. Confused, he asks why he's packing. Elwood tells him about the poker representative coming by. He doesn't seem too concerned, but Elwood continues packing.

In the hall, Will tells Maddie his good news about Oakdale U. Soon after, the poker representative approaches them. He asks them if they know where he can find Casey or Elwood. Maddie sends him across the hall. After he leaves, Will and Maddie continue to talk about his acceptance into Oakdale U.

The poker representative emerges at Casey and Elwood's door. "Casey Hughes?" he asks, as Casey opens the door. Elwood chimes in reminding the representative that Casey and Elwood flunked. "Not according to the dean," he says. Casey informs him that he doesn't know who he is, but he has five minutes to leave or he'll call campus security! Not alarmed by the threat, he asks Elwood if he's going somewhere. "I got a sick uncle," Elwood answers. He says he has a hunch they've enjoyed themselves the last couple of weeks. They nod their heads in agreement. He says that's good, because at playpoker.com they want their guests to have a good time, but they're always on the look out for players who cheat. He explains their process, then reveals that they know him and Casey are regular table mates. Elwood says lots of guys in the dorm play poker. He agrees, saying their happy to have them on the site, but they've been monitoring them and tracking the way they place their bets. He goes on to disclose everything they've found. Casey says even if they can prove anything, so what! He goes on to say his dad is a district attorney. "Which means he's well versed in interstate commerce, and no doubt eager to take hold of a federal procacution? Or, we could just call him and see if he wants to pay back that money you owe." A knock at the door interrupts their discussion. It's Maddie and Will! Casey steps out in the hall to talk to them. She asks what's going on. He says Elwood's in trouble and he's helping him out. Before she leaves, she tells Will congratulations. Casey asks him about that, and Will shares his good news. He says as soon as he's finished with his business inside they'll celebrate.

Back from LA, Adam shows up at the dorms; Casey tries to run Adam away but fails. The poker representative asks Adam if he knows Elwood and Casey. When he reveals he's Casey's brother, the representative fills him in. Adam asks how much they owe him. "$2800," the representative replies. Pulling out a wad of cash like it's nothing, Adam hands him $2800. "Pleasure doing business with you Mr. Munson. "Yea, I'll need a receipt." Without argument, the representative writes out the receipt.

After the representative leaves, Elwood goes on about how amazing Adam was. "Don't you have somewhere to be, Elwood? Adam inquires. He confirms, thanking Adam. "I'm going to pay you back," Elwood finishes.

After Elwood leaves, Casey thanks Adam for helping him out again, then he says they have this system and it was working so good. Adam holds his hand up, cutting Casey short. Casey apologizes. He says he's going to pay him back. Adam says, "No, this is my fault." "What do you mean?" He reminds him about the guy a few weeks ago. Casey says that wasn't so bad, because all he was going to make him do was tell his parents. He says that's why he appreciates his help. Adam retorts that he didn't help him out. Looking confused, Casey asks if he's going to tell. "No, you're going to tell 'em." Adam replies.

Casey Lies to Maddie!

At the dorms, Elwood and Casey are playing poker. Maddie comes in. Soon after, Elwood leaves. After Elwood leaves, Casey and Maddie share a kiss. She says she thinks it's great that he invited Elwood to stay with them. She says he's a great friend and boyfriend. She goes on to say she found the game for Henry and believes she'll check it out online. She grabs up the laptop, opens it and finds the poker site! When she asks him about it, he blames it on Elwood, but he admits that he's tried it a few times. She believes him, and thinks she should talk to Elwood about his problem. Casey asks her not to talk to him, but she tries to convince him it would be a good idea, because gambling can be addictive.

Later, Elwood comes back. Maddie tells Casey she has to say something to him before it gets any worse. Elwood asks what she's talking about. She replies that she knows. Casey steps in to explain that Maddie found the poker site, and she knows he was the last one to use the laptop. He plays along and listens to Maddie's lecture about gambling. When she finishes, he says maybe her brother can't stop but he can. She gives him a number in case he changes his mind and wants help. Elwood thanks her. Casey asks Maddie to warm the car up and he'll be right out.

After she goes to warm up the car, Casey apologizes to Elwood. He's angry at Casey for lying to Maddie, he says now she thinks he has a problem. He goes on to say Maddie will figure it out soon.

Back at the dorms, Elwood is playing poker. He hears a knock at the door. When he answers, he discovers a man who says he's looking for Casey Hughes and Elwood Hoffman.

"Uh, why?" Elwood asks.
"I represent playpoker.com. You wouldn't happen to be Mr. Hughes or Mr. Hoffman would you?"
"No, no, uh, can't be that lucky. Swell guys those two, but uh, a little stupid you know, because they flunked out. Yea, I mean it was a little sad to see them go and everything. You know?" If you don't mind me asking, why are you looking for them?"
"Our site's been tracking an unusual game pattern between two players whose e-mail addresses link back to Mr. Hughes and Mr. Hoffman and this room. And if it's what we think it is--well… those boys are in trouble."
