What Da Vinci and Shannon also find in O'Malley's apartment is a series of lottery tickets. Although drunk at the time the winning numbers are announced, Shannon is lucid enough to know that Clarence owns a ticket worth $2 million. Da Vinci and Shannon contemplate what to do with this knowledge. They go through a series of options, including keeping the ticket for themselves, especially if Clarence had no living relatives. Their resolve to "do the right thing" strengthens when they meet who looks to be Clarence's only surviving relative, an opportunistic Rick O'Malley. Da Vinci and Shannon definitely do not want Rick, who cared nothing for Clarence, to get the money. Da Vinci and Shannon finally decide on an option they feel is equitable and humanistic. Meanwhile, Leary is involved in a high stakes poker game at a private gambling club on what looks to be his off time. The players are all pretty intense on the game except for chatty Greg Prentice. Prentice's chattiness gets Leary talking, which suits the two men's purposes just fine. But Leary gets the final say in the conversation. Written by Huggo See less
