Urie’s Brian fears that his best friend Margaret’s (Lovell) potential marriage to Randy (Ozeri) will leave him left out. He forms an unlikely partnership with Randy’s best friend, Jake (Cregger), to disrupt their union.

Cregger’s Jake is handsome and a little too arrogant. Jake has been best friends with Randy since kindergarten, and he rejects the unwanted additions of Margaret and Brian in his life.

Lovell’s Margaret is a sweet, sarcastic middle school librarian who is looking forward to a lifelong relationship with Randy despite the objections of her best friend Brian and Randy’s best friend Jake.

Ozeri’s Randy, lovable and optimistic, is Jake’s best friend since kindergarten. He is ready to live the rest of his life with Margaret, even if Jake does not support his choice.

NBC originally developed and ordered Friends-In-Law to pilot last development season. Gallivan’s script is now being re-piloted.
