With their father (guest star Tom Irwin) out of town for the Halloween weekend, the Sorelli sisters agree to hold down the fort at the family deli, but things get a little out of hand when Marjee decides to throw a huge party at the house. In the midst of the chaos, Anne realizes she still has feelings for her childhood crush, Marco (guest star Victor Webster).
The series begins with the four Sorelli sisters in the midst of their very complicated lives together. Oldest sister Ginnie, a high powered attorney is having difficulty on telling her husband that they are having a baby. Ann (guest star Laura San Giacomo) is dealing with the fact that her longterm relationship with her boyfriend Danny (guest star Jon Hamm) may be over. Marjee is in a rut on finding a restaurant to host a Pug Dog Benefit featuring Jillian Barbaree that will have live dogs. Also, college student Rose is having a hard time telling the family that she has switched college majors from Pre-Med to the Experimental Theatre Ring. While all the sisters lives are in a rut they also have to plan their father's engagement party as he is remarrying to a woman that they don't particularly care for.
