Not only does he have a large seaside development in progress, but he's due to marry the beautiful daughter of a rich and influential businessman. Satoru is humbled, however, when he's asked to connect with the common folk via a period of service in a local supermarket named Mantendo. Satoru initially clashes with his trainer, a no-nonsense part-timer named Ninomiya (Shibasaki Kou) who has little use for the obviously arrogant Satoru. Not that it matters to Satoru. He's too busy exercising his superiority - until one indignity after the next reduce him to a shadow of his inflated former self. Now at rock bottom, can Satoru regain his self-esteem and - with the help of former nemesis Ninomiya - work to save Mantendo?
