Plot At Las Vegas, a stranger with several missing body parts sells a statue of a grotesque Leprechaun to a Pawn Shop owner named Gupta. The statue has a medallion around its neck, which Gupta removes despite getting warned not to. As Gupta examines a pot of gold coins found with the statue, the Leprechaun comes to life and attacks him. Seeing the medallion, the Leprechaun flees into the back of the shop with his pot of gold, dropping one of his coins in the process. Gupta watches a computer program on Irish folklore, which reveals a Leprechaun's gold coin will grant the holder one wish and that their power resides in the gold.

Seeing the computer program, Scott makes a nonchalant wish to be back at the casino on a winning streak.
