9:20 P.M.

"Trainspotting" by Primal Scream can be heard playing from the ballroom.

Brother Foooz looks very happy, and sits down to join the game, picking up his hand and examining his cards.

You keep the ten, the jack and the ace and ask for two cards, glancing nervously towards the guy in the closet. You receive a three of spades and a seven of diamonds.

As Governor Asher starts to examine his cards, Amanda suddenly says, "Hey! Wait a minute! I got six cards! Misdeal...gimme those...you don't know what you're doing."

Before Bernadette can protest, Amanda grabs the deck from her and collects everybody's cards, then re-deals. You receive a three of diamonds, a king of spades, a king of clubs, a king of hearts and a jack of diamonds.

You're not sure, but you think you notice Amanda palming cards every time she deals to the governor.

As everyone examines their cards, Amanda says, "Okay, guys...since I'm the dealer, my rule is that whoever wins this hand can make anyone in the room an offer they can't refuse..."

Bernadette giggles and bats her eyes at the governor, then Amanda continues, "How many cards do each of you want?"
