- The show's producers tested potential leads for mental stability.
The second season of Jury Duty, titled 'Corporate Retreat,' concluded, revealing the elaborate ruse to its unsuspecting lead, Anthony Norman.

His journey was captured extensively by hidden cameras throughout the season's run.
As the season finale unfolded, the cast experienced an emotional reveal as the truth was brought to light. In interviews, Norman disclosed early suspicions, citing a cameo by the artist Sia as a pivotal 'red flag.'
