Elyse becomes consumed by the thrill of gambling during a business trip to Atlantic City. Caught up in Alex's supposedly "foolproof" blackjack strategy, she loses sight of her family and work responsibilities. Eager to see his system in action, Alex encourages everyone to take risks, but Elyse insists her focus is on business. Eventually, she reluctantly agrees to give blackjack a shot. As luck would have it, she embarks on an incredible winning streak, skipping the architects' convention, neglecting her family's needs, and disregarding any sense of financial prudence.
