Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. We start the episode with Ed having caught a cheater. The cheater has used a substance called magnesium silicate that enables him to see through the cards. When he's being interrogated by Danny and Ed...a staff member burst through the door asking Ed questions about her father. Who bursts in?

Answer: Nessa

As you should have guessed, it's Nessa who barges in. This is the first scene of a continuing storyline throughout the show with Nessa trying to learn more about her father from Ed.
2. The Montecito has hired an entertainer, Anton, who is a psychic by trade. He gets random people up on stage... and tells them what's in their purse! His first volunteer is a lady named Cynthia James who has a tan leather wallet, some money and what item that she would have preferred not being told to the audience?

Answer: A pack of 'Her Pleasure' prophylactics

Later in the episode, Cynthia tries to convince Sam that her whole stay should be complimentary due to this embarrassing scene. Sam doesn't believe so. Cynthia then admits that she had met a guy at the casino, and hadn't heard from him since...fearing that her stage performance had cost her the shot of dating him.
3. Ed tells Danny to follow the cheater, which takes him to a small bar with gambling facilities. Danny knows the owner and is taken back into the security room. He asks if he can look at the security system to watch the cheater who is in the bar...but the surveillance isn't exactly high-tech. What exactly is his security system?

Answer: A peephole

Danny - "Hey, can I get a peek through your surveillance system?"
Owner - "I dunno Danny...even with your training you had I don't think you can handle it"
Danny - "I'll give it my best shot, I promise"
Owner - "I'll tell you what...you go back to peeping tom, you'll never wanna go back to Big Ed's world"
4. Meanwhile, our psychic, Anton, has managed to attract the attention of one of our leading ladies. Who seems to be smitten?

Answer: Mary

The handsome Anton captures Mary's attention and pretends to see into her future. He sees them having dinner. What an original pick-up line for a psychic.
5. This episode introduces us to the Montecito's favourite chef, Gunther! Gunther is very passionate about his food, but always blames his assistant when something goes wrong. What is the name of this poor faceless sod, who we never actually see on screen?

Answer: Benito

Poor Benito cops a steak fillet to the head in his first outing. Gunther - "BENITO! Where are you, you little gypsy boy, come here!"
6. Delinda manages to get a job with Gunther. Followers of the show will know that Delinda makes radical changes to the place, including re-naming the place 'Mystique'. But what was the name of the restaurant before Delinda changed it?

Answer: Corinthea

It is mentioned a few times throughout the show that the restaurant is named Corinthea. Cynthia, Delinda, Gunther and Ed all mention it as well as there being a logo for it on the wall out front. With Gunther realizing that Delinda is too beautiful to work in the kitchen, he pus her out front as the Maitre'D, but she takes the opportunity and runs. Using her pull with her father, she renames it Mystique and performs almost a complete overhaul...including turning the non-existent backroom into a nightclub.
7. Nessa goes undercover to try and unravel the cheating ring that has long been haunting the Montecito, along with other casinos in Vegas. She meets the leader of this cheating ring, the mentor of the group known as The Professor. Which brilliant actor, who came to fame from "M*A*S*H" the movie, plays this role, the first major guest star to appear on Las Vegas?

Answer: Elliott Gould

Gould does a grand job in the episode. His smoothness is brilliant and he plays the part to a tee. Unfortunately for his character, he is set up by Ed and Nessa and eventually caught... but not without adding a lot of spice to Nessa's background storyline.
8. Nessa convinces The Professor to appear in a $10 million final table tournament in which they are using a 'cooler' to switch decks. This deck would give The Professor all the best hands and allow him to win. What popular card tournament is being held?

Answer: Blackjack

As we realize in the end, Nessa had duped Gould and made him give himself up to the authorities. Each of the characters on Las Vegas get a chance to shine for Ed and make him proud. Nessa is the first to receive this honour.
9. Someone dies in this episode. Who is it?

Answer: Anton

Anton the psychic tells Mary that someone is going to die during his next show...that he can feel it. When no-one dies during his penultimate show like he said... Danny is amused and he busts Anton's method of knowing what's in people's purse. Unfortunately...Anton has a brain aneurysm during his last show, something totally undetectable.
10. Who was the first of the regular characters to visit Mystique? They walk out of Mystique telling Delinda it was the best meal they've ever had. For a small trivial hint...this character is also the first of the regulars to appear on screen in the very first episode of Las Vegas! So who is it?

Answer: Mike

It's Mike! In his only scene in the episode... he thanks Delinda for the meal, which dumbfounds Danny and Ed as Delinda is not letting them in...they aren't on the guest list! Delinda also lets in a man named Ethan for a friend...but still not Ed and Danny. To elaborate on the starting scene in the first episode... the first scene has the dead body in the desert and the camera whooshes down the strip toward the Montecito. Mike is the first character seen...as the whoosh slows down to see him out the front of the casino working in valet.

The whoosh then goes indoors to meet the other characters.
