Danny walked into the casino and saw Nessa, Mary, and Mike, all of whom were looking very worried. Nessa looked towards Danny and gave a sigh of relief. She quickly motioned to other two and they headed towards him.
"Well, is she alright? Are you alright?" Mary asked as they approached.
"Um, yeah! Sam's fine, I'm fine, and Metro arrested the guy." Danny responded.
"Oh thank God!" Nessa replied.
"So, what exactly happened?" Mike asked him quietly.
Danny started explaining about the guy and how he had held a knife to Sam's throat and taken them both to the roof. When he was done he was left looking at three horror-struck faces.
"Oh my gosh! Are you sure Sam's going to be alright?" Nessa asked him finally.
"Yeah, she should be fine!" Danny replied.
"Well, I should go back to the pit!" she smiled she gave Danny a quick pat on the arm and left.
"Yeah, I need to go back to the lobby!" Mike said as he pulled Danny into a bear hug, "Next time, don't try and be the hero!"
"I'll leave that to you!" Danny laughed as Mike headed out of the casino.
"Danny, I know that you said that you were fine, but..."
"Mare, I meant it, I'm alright!" "Fine, but if you ever want to talk, I'm here!"
"Thanks Mare!" he said softly.
"I should go! Before my guests start wondering where I am!" she whispered and she turned around and left, leaving Danny standing at the entrance of the casino.
The next morning, Danny came downstairs to find Mary, Nessa, and Delinda swarming around Sam. "What's going on?" he asked as he joined Mike by the front desk.
"I think they're just trying to help!" Mike replied with a smile, "But it doesn't look like it's working!"
Danny smiled too, it looked like a scene from out of a movie. Mary and Nessa were trying to comfort Sam while Delinda was ordering people to move out of the way. Sam in the meantime was practically pushing Mary and Nessa off of her and trying to get Delinda to stop at the same time, it was highly ineffective. Danny couldn't help but smile further as his eyes fell upon Sam. She was wearing black form-fitting pants and a black tube top and her face was framed by her flowing curls. She looked over at Danny and Mike and mouthed the words, HELP ME! Danny looked over at Mike and they both rushed into the rescue.
"Girls," Mike began, "Don't you think that you should give Sam a break, I mean she was already held up in one hostage situation..."
Danny stifled a laugh as Delinda, Nessa, and Mary glared at Mike.
"What he meant to say is that..." Danny started slowly.
"I'm fine, and while I appreciate your concern, your only making things worse." Sam finished, motioning to the angry guests huddled in the lobby.
"I guess you're right! I'll ask Daddy to comp their meals!" Delinda replied quietly as she hugged Sam and then headed for the surveillance room.
"In the meantime, I'll go and apologize!" Mary said staring after Delinda, she gave Sam a quick hug and walked over to the angry guests.
"I guess that means I'm off to the pits!" Nessa replied after some time.
"I'll come with you!" Sam said.
She quickly turned to Danny and Mike, and mouthed the words THANK YOU! Then she headed off into the casino with Nessa.
