Ann meets an elderly man, Andrew Washington at a party when he accidentally spills his shrimp cocktail on her new white crepe dress. He tries to make it up to her by giving her gifts, but Ann cannot accept them.

Ann takes her jury duty to heart and will not go along with the rest of the panel when they all want to vote ""guilty"" against a man accused of hitting his wife with an ashtray. After reasoning that he couldn't have hit her with his right hand, she convinces the others and they vote for acquittal.
