What Happens in Vegas... is a case featured in Criminal Case as the ninth case of Travel in Time (Season 6) and the three-hundredth case overall. It takes place in The 1960s.
Plot
After witnessing people running away from the Peacock Hotel and Casino, Jack, Nebet, and the player found actress and manuscript owner Lorna Westerberg shot dead in front of the hotel.
Mid-investigation, the team flagged Tony Marconi's mother Nicoletta as a suspect, even meeting the young Tony. Later, Nebet and the player continued the investigation in the victim's hotel room upon hearing of an intruder there as Jack had to leave to smooth-talk the hotel staff into calming down. Soon afterward, while Jack briefly reunited with Nebet and the player, the paparazzi barraged them. Nebet and the player then found enough evidence to arrest casino card dealer Frankie Paisley for the murder.
Paisley admitted that Lorna had asked him to help her cheat, splitting the winnings in return. However, Lorna had refused to pay him his half of the money. Disliking the jeopardizing situation he was in, Paisley shot Lorna to death. Nebet and the player then took him to the local authorities.
Post-arrest, Zara and the player found an audio bug in Lorna's empty suitcase, which Kai used to determine that Lorna had bought the manuscript for Soviet ambassador Lev Romanov. Lev told the team that he had already taken the manuscript to his embassy in Washington, D.C. Zara then suggested that they team up with Nicoletta as she was a top-notch thief. The team then met up with Nicoletta, who agreed to pull off the heist in exchange for the team not reporting her theft of Lorna's tiara.
Meanwhile, Janis taught Nebet how to play craps in order to get back the team's money she had lost when she and Orlando went gambling. After all the events, Nicoletta met up with the team in front of the casino and agreed to meet up with them outside the Washington, D.C. embassy in three days.
