Ace Savvy: The Case of the Mysterious Gambler : We begin on Earth-13 where there's a bank robbery committed by the crime boss Toney Maroney. However, Lincoln Loud A.K.A. Ace Savvy and Clyde Mcbride A.K.A. One-Eyed Jack come to the rescue and take out a few of Maroney's goons then they beat up Maroney along the way. However, he calls more men, but Ace Savvy calls the Full Deck and they're now together as the Full House Gang. The heroes beat up the goons and capture. After this, the heroes enjoy the privilege of getting free food because of their heroic acts. When they go home, where it's revealed that in this universe, the Louds are rich and Mcbrides are staying with them after their house burnt down by a crime. After watch the Dream Boat, Lincoln reveals that he became a superhero after their grandma (on Rita's side) was killed by someone unknown.

After some scenes at school (where Lincoln's friends are in awe of him being rich, and talking about the upcoming pool party, but Chandler is scornful) and the Louds' library and gym, we learn that several companies are going bankrupt, and several people are now inexplicably poor.

Suspecting foul play, the Full House Gang investigate and ask several victims such as Steve (from Vantastic Voyage) and people at the homeless shelter, but all of them act evasive. However, a man then tells the Full House Gang that he had a run-in with Tony Maroney who mentioned he was gambling, suggesting that he's been gambling people out of their money. However, Ace/Lincoln is suspicious since that isn't what Maroney usually does, so they look up his crime record at the police station and find that he doesn't usually gamble.

The gang wonder if Maroney is in on it but working with someone else, so they look up his associates and end up in a fight with a few of them. However, none of them are the culprit; all of them used to work for Maroney but quit and were betrayed. One of them, however, gives them a lead-in and mentions that the bad guys will be in a warehouse. The Full House Gang goes to a warehouse and fights with Maroney and his partner, and they manage to get Maroney arrested, but the partner escapes.

After finding out that Duds for Dudes gets robbed of its inventory, Lisa/Card Counter invents more weapons, and the Full House Gang meets another of Maroney's thugs, who reveals that he doesn't know who the partner is, but he knows there's a hideout at an old steel mill. At the steel mill, they fight off more thugs and meet face-to-face with the Gambler, who turns out to have been Chandler, who wanted to be rich because he felt like the Louds's wealth made less-wealthy kids like him look like losers. They get into another fight, during which Chandler acquires short-term memory loss, which luckily prevents others from finding out about the Full House Gang's secret identities, and the bad guys get arrested. Then, the gang has fun at their pool party.
