They are successful until Principal Lewis finds them and threatens to sell them out, exposing Principal Lewis who owes the casino money, he blurts that the kids were counting cards and the casino owner orders that they all be shot. Fleeing the casino's goons, they hide behind a trash can until the goons empty their weapons. When Barry claims they are out of ammunition, Principal Lewis bursts out and is shot in the shoulder. When Lewis asks why he lied about the number of shots fired, Barry points out he should never touch a fat boy's candy while sticking his finger in the bullet wound and twisting it.
