However, with the holidays coming up, Andie receives notice to report for jury duty. Even though the timing is bad, an excited Andie looks forward to performing her patriotic duty. Tony Urbanski is the newest partner in the Great Lakes Management Group. He currently is working a major merger deal when he learns jury duty awaits him. Tony, a workaholic due to the demons of growing up in an alcoholic home, loathes serving on a jury. The Judge selects Tony and Andie to serve along side ten other individuals.
