The cast never brings any counterpoints to justify their management decisions, they immediately run to Ed to overrule her while Ed himself just offers half-assed "that's how we do things" excuses, which just highlights that [[ProtagonistCenteredMorality the staff are way too tightly knit and think of the casino as their personal fiefdom]].

* CompleteMonster: "Bare Chested in the Park" through "A Hero Ain't Nothin' but a Sandwich": On a show whose antagonists are composed mostly of gambling cheaters, thieves, or con artists, Vince Peterson stands out as the most depraved villain to appear. He's a billionaire gambler who travels around the world to have a good time. It turns out that this includes kidnapping, [[SerialRapist raping]], and [[SerialKiller killing]] women. He [[ScrewTheRulesIHaveMoney uses his money to get away with his crimes, cheery that it allows him to do whatever he wants]]. He asks Sam Marquez to marry him and sweetens the deal by agreeing to buy the Montecito... before drugging her, tying her up, stuffing her into a trunk case and taking her with him onboard his private plane. He takes way too much pleasure in letting Sam know that she isn't even ''close'' to the first woman he's done this to and looks forward to his victim pissing herself in fear [[{{Squick}} because it will turn him on more]]. He further beats Sam up with his belt and prepares to rape her before she manages to kill him by throwing him off the plane. Sam spends the rest of Season 5 trying to cope with the trauma.

* ValuesDissonance: in one episode the Montecito staff encounter a male guest who is being repeatedly beaten up by his karate expert wife. They treat it as a big joke and spend most of the story trying to get the pair back together, female-on-male domestic abuse not taken as seriously as it is today
