Episode Overview
Title: Jury Duty Plot: Michael and Jay find themselves summoned for jury duty together. Eager to wrap up the trial swiftly so he can enjoy a "Godfather" marathon at home, Michael is chosen as the foreman. However, Jay insists on a thorough discussion before agreeing to a guilty verdict. As a result, Michael misses the marathon and resorts to renting the films to catch up. At the video rental, he encounters an insurance agent whom he mistakenly believes is a mobster, leading him to think he's being targeted because of the trial. Ultimately, the case is dismissed before a vote, leaving Jay frustrated with Michael's lack of support, but she gets her own back when he embarrasses himself.
