Meet the Morgan Triplets, Zoe Mateo and Dustin, after graduating from uni they took a much needed vacation at the beach.

Zoe decided to relax and work on her tan but....

Dustin talked Mateo into scuba diving which was a big mistake.

Of course those two imbeciles had to dress back into their everyday clothes before going into the water.

Something went wrong and Mateo ran out of air too soon.

Poor Mateo

Dustin couldn't find Mateo and he wouldn't stop searching for him.

He was mauled by a shark 

Than it was Dustin's turn to run out of air.

The next morning Zoe received word that her two brothers remains were found.  She didn't know how to tell Grandma Alessandra who was waiting for them to return to Monte Vista.  She was frail and old and to find out that both Mateo and Dustin were gone would be too much for the old woman to handle. 

Zoe couldn't handle being without her brothers either so she decided to plead her case to ole Grim himself.  She heard that he was the type to make deals and she planned to do whatever it takes to bring her brothers back.

Grim did want to make a deal with her.  She would have to produce at least 100 potential souls under some strict rules.  The rules would just pop into her head if she accepted, she would know exactly what to do.  Her spouses must be living in the household and they must eat three jelly beans every night after the first child was born with the exception of festival day and fathers day.

Zoe asked why the fathers would have to take such a risk and Grim explained that the men who would be attracted to her were not happy and fate played a trick on them.  If they died while eating the jelly beans she would bring their remains to him and he would reincarnate them.  However they came back, it would be her job to take care of them.

Grim also said that this type of challenge would mean she could have either Mateo or Dustin as a ghost for help.  Zoe knowing both of them knew that Mateo was the better choice.  Grim told her that he knew she would choose Mateo but in this case he would make an exception and let her take Dustin with her too.  Dustin seemed to always be getting on everyone's last nerve and ole Grim was no exception.

Zoe shook his hand and accepted.

Zoe blinked her eyes and she was in the middle of the desert with the jelly bean bush.  Grim was right things were popping into her head, she was in Lucky Palms, she had no skills and no money.  Than she knew to turn around for a surprise and they were.

She hugged Dustin

and Mateo.  

Grim was right everything was popping into her head, she knew she had to go to the wishing well and retrieve a lucky coin.  

This coin was to be using at the casino and she was to gamble until 10 PM that night in order for them to build a house. 

Dustin and Mateo decided they had to do their part in raising money, after all they were receiving their own messages and their part in this.

True to form these two found different ways of earning money, while Dustin went to the dumpsters.  Dustin also applied for a job in the military.

Mateo picked flowers and decided if his sister was going to have so many babies, he joined the medical career.

She won $18,406!

They had enough for a small house and Zoe decided to join the painter career.  She went back home to get some rest and tomorrow she we begin to look for a husband.
