Slip finds a book of matches with the name of a local nightclub on his boss' desk and finds out from Gabe that a casino is being run out of it. Slip comes to the conclusion that the club had something to do with his boss' death and sets out to find his murderer.
The boys get jobs at the club and Louie poses as a rich cattleman as they gather the information to convict the murderers.
