At 39 years old, Nozue lives a routine, if not melancholic, life of sleep and work. Togawa, his younger subordinate, finds it troubling and takes it upon himself to shake up Nozue's routine. During a lunch outing, the two go to a pancake shop full of exuberant young ladies to 'do what girls do,' and it's just the thing to breathe life into Nozue. The two men start an unlikely friendship-and perhaps something a little sweeter! For mature audiences.
