In the pilot episode, we saw that Maddie had been a very wealthy model, before her accountant ran off with all her money.
As this episode begins, Maddie learns where he went. She learns that Ron Sawyer went to Buenos Aires and built a casino. Incensed, she flies down to confront him and demand her money back.
David is convinced that she is wasting her time, that Sawyer will laugh in her face, but he follows her down anyway. It turns out David was right, of course: Sawyer has no interest in giving her her money back. Dave and Maddie try to make the best of it by winning some of it back at the craps table.
Then Maddie has an idea: she wants David to win her money back from Sawyer in a high-stakes poker game. She puts up her house, her car, and the agency, against the two million dollars that Sawyer stole from her. Of course she doesn't get the money back, but she doesn't lose the agency either; the resolution to this card game is classic. ("David!!!")
