Workaholic FBI agent Jake Cunningham (Shawn Christian) fears his case against investment fraudster Scott Shift (Cameron Bancroft) may not stick without the testimony of cocktail waitress Brandi O'Neill (Jami Gertz), who naively believed herself to be more then Scott's latest throwaway flirt.
Then Jake is tricked by his “Ma”, Anne Cunningham (Tyne Daly) to spend
Christmas with his “seriously ill” dad, Judge Joe Cunningham (Winston Rekert) and is ordered by his
bosses to take Brandi into protective custody.
Jake didn’t regularly visit his family, so he passed off Brandi as his
steady date and his mum is not impressed and there follows a humorous posh
versus working class seasonal culture clash, but there is a dark side to the
tale when Jakes dad discovers the true identity of his girlfriend and
sympathizes with the Shift family and unwittingly informs the corrupt family
lawyer of her location.
