Plot Overview

The Professor is summoned to jury duty. He is thrilled to be a part of a service that requirers civic responsibility. He is thrilled until he sees Nikki come into the courtroom. She was selected as an alternate after another juror became ill. They are both jurors on the trial of a very attractive woman accused of murdering her elderly husband for one million dollars. She had taken out a million insurance policy on his life. The Professor is immediately smitten. Not surprisingly, Nikki is fuming. After days of listening to testimony in the case, the jury deliberates. At first, it was only the men who vote not guilty, and all the women vote guilty. After some more dissusion on the case all but one jury vote guilty. We can guess who that juror is.

Notes

It seems like no matter whatever attractive woman it is, the Professor always falls hard for the woman. The woman, no matter whom it is, does not return the affection. Paris Walker is no exception.

Trivia

Gretchen Palmer who plays the Black Widow (no pun intended) would appear two more times as Paris Walker.
