In the upcoming episode titled We Take a Zebra to Vegas, Percy and his friends land in a casino. In the previous episode, Ares told them to find Hermes at the Lotus Hotel and Casino. Lin-Manuel Miranda is expected to play the role of Hermes, the messenger of gods.

While in the book, Hermes does not appear, the casino scene is well-known to Percy Jackson fans who have read the books or watched the Percy Jackson movie. Here Percy, Grover and Annabeth find the goings-on in the casino interesting.

While they get engrossed in various activities, they fail to register how time passes differently in a casino. They realize later that the casino is designed in a way that people would not want to leave. This part is likely to stay true to the original story The Lightning Thief.
