Lucky Jordan

Jordan is a skilled but unscrupulous New York gangster with a knack for navigating the underworld. He is swept into a new reality when he receives his draft notice from the military, which disrupts his comfortable life of crime and luxury. Ever the schemer, Jordan decides to use his cunning to dodge service. However, his attempts are thwarted, and he soon finds himself enlisted in the army, facing an unfamiliar world that requires discipline and sacrifice. Reluctantly, he goes through basic training but retains his sly ways, using every opportunity to exploit those around him for personal gain. The structured military life grates against his freewheeling nature, setting up a number of comedic and tense situations as he constantly seeks a way to return to his former life.

Throughout his military journey, Jordan encounters Jill, a determined and principled USO worker who believes in the cause and sees through his act. Despite their clashing ideals, Jill becomes instrumental in challenging Jordan's selfish outlook, presenting him with a model of selfless service and dedication—values he's never held dear. As they interact, Jill becomes both a formidable adversary and an unexpected ally. Meanwhile, Jordan’s criminal past catches up with him when one of his former associates tries to involve him in a scheme against national security, forcing him to choose between his old life and the one he has stumbled into. As the plot unfolds, Jordan must confront what truly matters in life and whether he can rise above his self-centered ways.
