Somehow my beloved daughter has stopped talked to me.
No matter how much I try to talk to her,
my effort is always futile.
The train that my daughter and I were riding on
got into an accident.
Dad?!
Koume?!
When we woke up,
somehow I was the daughter
and my daughter was me.
The one who's on a date with her crush is...
the father.
The one who's following them around, afraid that she's going to ruin it is...
the daughter.
After working on Sunday, the one who walked out with the office lady is...
the daughter.
The one following the daughter nervously is...
the father.
The fact that our bodies have switched is...
our secret.
I always come here to eat. They're really good.
Is she going to have dinner with her?!
What the heck is she thinking?
Okay. Let's go in!
It's not everyday you switch bodies. It doesn't hurt to enjoy it, right?
Hey! What are you doing?!
Why doesn't she pick up the phone?
Maybe she forgot to turn on her phone.
Hey! You've got a phone call!
A phone call!
Oh, I just remembered, I need to call my daughter, too.
- Excuse me. - Go ahead.
Hello? Is this Koume?
Are you studying?
What are you doing? Rumors spread at work too easily!
You better not have dinner with Nishino-san.
She says she wants to talk to me.
Girls' talk is nothing. I'll just go listen to her.
Why don't you just talk at work?
You just wanted to eat at a fancy Ginza restaurant!
I wonder who was the one that got you 1000 survey responses.
One hour. Finish this talk in an hour.
And you better bring the topic back home.
I will, I will.
Why don't you go home first and eat?
Mom's been talking about cheap potatoes since this morning.
These potatoes are so cheap!
Potatoes...?
I don't care right now. Keep this phone connected.
Fine.
Sorry. Let's go.
Okay.
What should we have?
I'll leave it up to you.
I can't wait.
But then again, what's Nishino-san thinking?
Somehow
Nishino-san doesn't seem like her usual self.
Where's this bad feeling coming from?

Welcome.
Episode 3: I failed!? My marriage is in danger!?
Wow!! It's crazy gorgeous!!
Do you like it?
Of course.
It's not in Japanese! I can't read it!
I think I'll have... spaghetti for now.
Spa...S...S...
Those are the drinks.
I knew that.
Alcohol...
I suppose you shouldn't drink alcohol after you just got well.
I know.
Oh, ginger ale would look like champagne.
I know.
Nishino-san, you're so considerate.
Not at all.
Ginger ale.
- Cheers. - Cheers.
So, what did you want to talk about?
Let's eat.
Crap. It's good.
It's nothing important, but...
Is it about relationships?
Here's your order.
Please enjoy them with fragrance of the balsamico sauce.
You know everything!
I have good instincts despite my looks.
Why is she asking me for relationship advice?
The thing is, I met with a suitor.
I see.
Who's the guy?
He's a wonderful man.
It's so good! It's crazy.
He's 6 years older than me and 33 years old.
He's about the right age.
I can't believe adults eat this every day!
That's not fair!
Sounds good.
But I still feel like he's not the one.
I turned him down.
So you've already decided.
What kind of talk is this?
Relationships are complicated, aren't they?
Well, marriages and relationships are different,
but girls are hopeless once they lose their sparkle.
Who are you talking like you know everything?
I actually have one more thing to talk to you about...
Pardon me.
Please select any dessert you want.
What should I take?
It's about Nakajima-san...
I'm so tired. I'll do the rest tomorrow.
Yep, good idea.
Hey, Kajino?
I'm Nakajima. We started working at the same time.
When did you come back from New York?
Oh, I, err...
came back yesterday.
I see.
Oh, you have a meeting the day after tomorrow.
Must be tough.
Yeah.
But only two more months until Rainbow Dream goes on sale.
I've got to work hard.
I suppose.
Someone has to do a project even if just to satisfy the top guys.
And it's thanks to those on the bottom that we can keep going.
So
Who's your boss?
Kawahara-san.
Kawa... oh then I guess you won't be promoted.
I see... you've gotten taken off the line.
Hey, isn't Nishino Wakako also in your team?
Yeah.
I see.
Well, I suppose, what?
She's like my best partner.
He's been asking me out to drink or to have dinner more frequently now.
He's not a bad guy, but...
Is he just annoying you?
Yes.
I didn't know he was that forward.
But if he annoys you, maybe you should tell him.
I think it'll be awkward if I tell him myself.
I was wondering if you can, like, give him some hints.
That'll be even more awkward.
You're right.
I'll tell him.
Hey!
Take it home! (Talk with me first!)
The problem is the excuse.
Maybe you should tell him you actually have a boyfriend.
I actually... don't.
I see.
A crush, however,
You do?
What's he like?
He's tall, kind,
and someone I can talk anything with.
I see.
Judging by her eyes...
does she mean...
Dad?!
And he's someone I can talk to when I need to like this.
He's cute and very fun to be with.
I see.
It can't be Dad.
He's not cute and he's boring.
What about you, Leader?
Huh?
Where did you meet your wife?
Uh... where was it...
Where was it...
Then, what did you like about her?
What was it...
I don't know anything about Mom and Dad.
The bill...
Oh! I forgot!
Hey! Don't forget the receipt!
The receipt!!
Do you need the receipt?
No thank you.
I understand.
What did you like about her?
I forgot.
Oh, never mind already. Forget it.
Never mind... about what?
Why... forget it?
Don't you love your wife?
L-Love?!
Love...
Pardon me.
Oh, thank you.
Expensive.
Oh well, it's Dad's money anyways.
I'll pay with credit card.
Hey! Don't forget the receipt!
Guess I'm paying for it myself.
Thank you for today.
I even made you pay for me.
Not at all.
Where do you live, Nishino-san?
In Urayasu.
Wow! That's near Disneyland!
You're so lucky!!
Leader, you're just like a kid!
Would you like to come over sometimes?
Sounds great!
Then the first day we'll go to Disneyland,
and I'll stay at your house at night,
and I'll go to Disney Sea the next day. What do you thinK?
But Leader, you have a wife...
Crap!
I was Dad.
Just kidding.
You're horrible.
Sorry.
Why do you look so hurt?
Wait? Did she really want me to...?
Of course not. It's just Dad.
Well, I need to go home now. Good night.
Good night.
Slow down. Don't rush things.
I think that was a little bad.
Does affairs start like this?
Well, it's impossible. It's just Dad, after all.
Koume!
Dad.
I told you to take the talk back home!
Oh well. She asked me.
By the way, what happened to your studying?
I'll make it work.
I've always been good at geography.
Things aren't the same anymore.
Anyways, did you get the receipt?
Here you go. These are the new samples by Jewel Cosmetics.
Please try them.
What? Samples?
Oh, Ritsuko said these smell really good.
Lucky me!
What about the receipt?
It's Nakajima-san.
Hello?
It's the end. I might as well just die!
He said he might as well just die.
Huh?!
And?
If you don't come...
I might quit my job!!
Oh well. I'll go see what's up. You go home first.
But...
Go home and study.
If he wants to talk to you...
I'll take it home, alright?
Being an adult is so tiring.
Hey! Leader! Over here!
Nakajima.
What's wrong?
Drink, drink, drink.
Cider please!
No way!!
Why cider?
Are you saying I can't handle beer?
There.
The usual phrase.
Bottom my shit.
We're on the same footing, but
he's already forgotten about me.
Well, drink first.
Drink.
I just poured that for you!
Fine, thank you.
Let's just make him drunk first.
You okay?
Yes, I'm feeling better now.
Can I have some water?
I just can't let this go.
About what?
I haven't been noticed since I came into this company.
And I haven't had any achievements.
So I was really happy when I got picked to be on this team.
I see.
So let's show them that we can do it if we try.
I can't just let things stay the way they are.
I guess he really did feel frustrated.
Sorry.
Here! Water and red bean ice cream!
Thanks.
What about Dad?
I see.
Well, I think I can go home by the end of next week...
Good night.
What's wrong?
No, nothing.
Who was it?
My mother.
My father is in the hospital.
Is he sick?
Yes. He has cancer.
Cancer?!
That's horrible!
Is he okay?
Yes. I heard his operation went well, at least.
But we can't celebrate just yet.
Of all days...
Well, I can't leave work right now.
Not until the meeting is over.
When my grandpa from Dad's side died,
Dad couldn't make it because he had work.
I thought that was cold and harsh of him
but maybe he had his reasons.
I can't believe he chose work over family...
I'm home.
Welcome home!
Oh, I'm so tired.
You must have had a long day.
I bet you're hungry!
I have curry.
No, it's okay. I ate with a coworker.
You did?
You could have called and told me first.
Sorry.
You're always like-
You smell.
What were you doing, Koume?
Did you study?
I need a break.
Koume, go to sleep if you aren't going to study.
Okay.
So what did Nakajima talk to you about?
A bath first.
I wonder why he didn't say anything about his father until now.
He didn't want to make people worry.
He's considerate that way.
I see.
- Hey. - Hmm?
Are you really studying?
You're so persistent.
I am.
You don't look stressed.
Is that because you're confident?
Well, yeah.
Okay. If your score is good, I'll raise your allowance by $30.
By that much?!
It can't hurt once in a while?
Right, Koume? Do your best.
I'll be so lucky if Dad gets me a good score and my allowance goes up.
Huh?
Koume, did you change your shampoo?
It's a new product by Jewel.
I got the samples.
It smells really good.
I'll buy it next time.
Good morning.
Nishino...kun!
Hello. Good morning.
Good morning.
Let's make it another good day.
Yes, let's.
Hey, Kajino! Good morning!
Good morning!
Everyone, tomorrow is the long-awaited meeting!
Let's put some effort into this.
Nakajima-san, you sound really spirited.
Someone's got to do it.
After all, I'm a man.
My, you're so reliable!
Nishino-san, you're acting quite friendly.
Didn't you say he annoy you?
Good morning.
- Good morning! - Good morning.
I need to be careful with her.
Girls can see through other girls pretty easily.
R-Republic of... Kazakhstan...
Republic of... Taj...ikistan?
Bishkek? Astana?
Tashkent? Dushanbe?
What the heck is this?
An exam?
I give up...
You've got message!
How was the test?
White flag?
Leader, here's the material for the meeting.
Just in case, here you go.
Imperial Council means everyone under the president must attend.
It's the biggest hurdle in Bisei Cosmetics.
Product models?
Nakajima.
Why are the models in their 20s when this product is for teens?
No, I just picked innocent girls that the people at the top would like.
Doesn't that make no sense?
Why are you suddenly bringing this up?
It's not a matter of sense.
We just need to get the okay from the president.
- Oh, really. - Please, sheesh.
But don't you need to think about the consumers more than the superiors?
Every new product in Bisei Cosmetics must pass
this Imperial Council's approval.
Anyways
we have to get this meeting over with.
No one likes to decide because they don't want the responsibility.
Adults often say kids don't understand, but
is this it for the Imperial Council?
You just have to get it over with?
Kajino-san!
Nice to see you well!
Nishino-san, these are chocolates from NY. Enjoy them with your team.
Thank you. I will.
Nakajima!
Since it's my coworker's project, I thought I'll help out.
What a strong bond between coworkers!
Thanks.
Can I have a sample of Rainbow Dream?
Did we even have samples?
Samples?
Free stuff?
Teenagers love to share with their friends. I'll do the marketing then.
Yeah, you're right.
Thanks.
Oh, but hold on.
Hold on? But the meeting is tomorrow.
I know that!
But we've just had a brand new idea so I'm bombarded with messages.
I'll make sure to get it done for the meeting.
Are samples
free?
That's why you call them samples?
We won't make it in time for tomorrow.
We should have just told him we didn't make samples.
I couldn't! Not in a situation like that!
Kana-chan, this way.
I've never gotten free samples for perfumes before.
I suppose we should put them in bottles.
But we don't have the money for it.
If you say that before you even try, then you've already lost!
Lose? To whom?
His coworker, Kajino-san.
What are you saying, Kana-chan?
I'll lose against myself. Myself!
Mom did say she's going to buy the shampoo after she smelled the sample.
The meeting is tomorrow!
There's only few more days!
Don't give up!
Let's impress everyone!
And ourselves too.
Samples of perfume, huh...
I've lost completely.
You're too depressed!
It's not like you're an overworked office worker.
- Come on now. - She's right.
As long as you didn't fail, you won't have to repeat a year.
Repeat a year?!
Koume, you're never going to fail!
She's screwed if she get held back a year.
It'll hurt her when she's looking for a suitor.
It's hard to show how good this is if people don't know its fragrance.
Yes! Exactly, Nishino-san!
I did it. I'm going to go print it out.
Nakajima-san, we're done here, right?
It's gotten so late!
H-H-H-Hold on!!
Doesn't any one of you have pride or something?
I have an idea.
Ties.
Ties?
Hair ties.
Look. There are decorations.
Like flowers or ribbons or clothes.
We can spray the perfume onto it and distribute them.
That sounds great!
That's it! Then let's look for a provider.
And we also have to figure out the cost, order them... Okay, got it.
I'll make everything work.
Alright everyone, help me out!
We'll get this done before tomorrow morning.
From here
all the way to here?
It's hopeless.
You're too overdramatic.
But...
there's so many...
Oh well, here. Want to continue this at your house?
Please.
Thank you.
Kenta-senpai.
Kawahara.
Are you studying?
Yeah.
Tomorrow's the hard day for us too.
Um, Kawahara,
after tests, would you...
Sorry. I have to do this or I'm held back a year.
What am I gonna do if I fail math?
Good luck.
Okay.
This is cute.
Yes, hello?
Yes. A hair tie with a cloth cover.
How many kinds do you have?
Yes?
What? When?
I see.
Well, I have an important meeting tomorrow, so
From Nakajima-san's home?
I can't go back today.
I wonder if something happened to his father?
What's wrong?
Your father is in quite a bad condition, isn't he?
Yes.
But tomorrow's the Imperial Council. I have to be here.
We're back!
Oh, any good ones?
Thanks. Well, now, put them here.
Why do you have to act normal when your parent's about to die?
That doesn't make any sense.
Back then, I thought he got there too late, but
I thought it makes no difference if you show up after he died, but...
Nakajima-san.
Yes?
Go!
Leader...
I have to be here or else...
If...
you can never see your father again,
I bet you'll regret it your whole life.
But I'm an office worker.
It's work. It can't be helped.
There's so many other office workers!
But
there's only one son.
There's nothing more important than family!
Go!
This is my order as your leader.
Leader...
I'll take care of the rest.
Everyone understands how you feel.
Here.
Go, for his sake.
Okay.
Alright. Let's all cover for Nakajima's work.
Okay!
Hello? Yes... Please hold on a minute.
Leader, Honda Plant wants to speak to Nakajima-san, but since he's not here,
extension number 3.
Leader, we've got quotes from three companies.
Here you go.
Leader, I'll take the call. Extension number 3, right?
Crap. I don't get a thing.
What should I do with these?
We will have a blackout starting at 7pm tonight.
Please be aware.
We completely forgot!
Oh, we can't stay overnight.
This is hopeless.
This is bad...
Blackout? What are we going to do?
Oh, Leader, don't you live in a single-family house?
Yes, but...?
What?
Is Nishino-san trying to come to our house?
That's great!
What should we bring with us?
- That's good! - Isn't it?
- It's the new one, right? - Yep, yep.
I know this one!
Hey, let's turn up the volume.
Shut up!
You guys have to work hard when it's time to work hard!
But you're... using my notes.
Just a bit longer. Thanks.
Koume! Are you working hard?
I've called both of your houses already.
Thank you so much!
Curry!
I made a lot so everyone can have them.
The potato salad's good too.
Thank you so much.
Dad said his coworkers are coming now.
What?! Why?
They're doing electric repairs so they can't work overtime.
Enjoy.
Okay.
Let's eat!
I didn't hear about this.
Leave the stuff around here.
Around where?
Just there. It doesn't matter.
It's so heavy.
Welcome. I'm Kawahara's wife.
I made curry so you can eat fast and get to work fast. Please have a seat.
- Wow! I'm so hungry! - Let's eat!
I'm Nishino Wakako.
- Nice to meet you. - Nice to meet you.
I'm his wife, Rieko.
Please have a seat.
Please eat as much as you want.
- Thank you. - No problem.
Koume!
If you're going to stay late, why don't you take a bath now?
Okay!
Thank you for the curry.
You're welcome.
Let's take a bath together!
C-Can I?
Well, right now, I'm Koume...
No, I can't.
You're coming with us too, right?
No, I...
will take one tomorrow morning.
Why?
I need to study.
Okay?
This is... the right choice.
I haven't seen these guys in so long.
This looks good too.
It looks much better than this other one.
Great work everyone.
- Huh? - Koume.
KO-U-ME.
Is she your daughter?
How cute.
How skinny.
Thanks.
Have we met before?
No, not at all.
- Is that so? - Yes.
Koume, how was your test?
It sunk.
Koume, come here.
I didn't know he was that strict on education.
I know.
What do you mean, it sunk?
My bad!
I can't believe this!
What about tomorrow's?
Not a clue.
Not a clue?
Maybe you're just stupid, Dad!
How dare you say stupid to your parent?
- But... - No buts!
And what were you thinking, bringing everyone home?
But you brought my friends...
That's for studying!
Which means it was for you!
I did this for you too...
It's so hot!
- Koume, I'm thirsty! - It's been forever!!
There's juice in the refrigerator.
- Oh, okay. - Thanks.
You've got message!
Give it to me.
It's from Kenta-senpai.
I'm at the park right now. Can you come out for just 5 minutes?
See? He's at the park. Go.
I have finals. What's he thinking? No.
He says just for 5 minutes!
There's nothing you can do in 5 minutes!
You're the one who failed the final!
Oh.
What do you say?
Yes.
Good girl. Go!
Yes.
What is it?
Don't be so blunt.
So? How's your studying coming along?
I'm so screwed.
You seemed...
so nervous, so...
Of course!
Just thinking about staying back another year....
It really may be hopeless.
These are last year's finals.
The questions are about the same every year.
Really?
Physics!
Ancient text!
Even English!
It should help you at least a little.
Yes!
Good luck on your finals.
I love you, Kenta-senpai!
Thank you.
Why are they hugging each other?!
Thank you so much!
No! Not that! That's for me!
No!!
Oosugi-kun again.
Hello.
How're you doing?
Uh, well.
I'll... go now. Good luck on your test!
- Okay. - Oosugi-kun.
Yes?
Do you want me to walk you home?
I-It's okay.
Excuse me!
Thank you!
He's a great guy.
I change my mind.
He brought me his last year's tests!
Now you're saved, Koume.
What's wrong?
You took my...
first hug.
Sorry.
I'm missing so much...
of my teenage life...
I want to back right now.
What if I can never go back...
Koume.
I'm sorry.
I was...err.. looking for you.
I wanted to apologize for yesterday.
Yesterday?
Your husband treated me to Italian food at a fancy restaurant in Ginza.
I was worried you might have already made dinner for him.
He didn't ask for the receipt because it wasn't work-related
But I felt so bad.
I-I see. Don't worry about it.
Hearing you say that makes me so relieved.
Excuse me.
Leader! You're back.
Are you okay?
Yes.
Sorry.
Honey,
can we talk?
I heard you
ate at a fancy Italian restraurant yesterday.
How do you know?
I shouldn't have known?
Not at all.
So how much did you spent?
Don't worry.
$260.
But I was able to pay with credit card.
I can't believe you!
I went to buy the potatoes on sale in the morning!
The line was so long...
I should...
apologize...
right?
I'm sorry.
About what?
Is there something you need to apologize for?
Huh?
Mom... you're scary...
If the quantity OTA equals alpha,
OT and OA equals the radius, and OT equals OA.
OT and OA equals the radius...
Alright! We're going to do this!
Now we have to go straight to the office and continue...
We'll make it for the meeting.
Thank you, Leader.
Please tell your wife too.
Everyone worked hard, didn't they?
So did you.
Everyone! Good luck at your meeting!
Thank you!
Good luck on your final, too, Koume-chan!
Okay!
Thank you for your hard work!
Thank you!
I'm so tired.
It's my first all-nighter.
Who knew they'd go this far?
Can you please wait here for a second?
Nakajima!
...san.
What's wrong?
You're... Koume-chan, aren't you?
You remembered me!
Well, yeah.
Where's everyone?
They just left.
It seems they've finished their task.
I see.
That's good to hear.
Where's Leader?
I'll go call him.
How's your father?
Oh, mine?
He pulled through somehow.
That's good to hear!
Thank you.
I also got to talk to him for the first time in a while.
No... it's the first time ever...
that we opened up so much to each other.
I'm thankful to your father, ashamed at myself,
and want to give back more to my parents now.
All thanks to your father.
He said there's nothing more important than family.
He said that?
Your father is
cool.
Really?
I'm cool?
Leader's really cool lately.
Lately?
Yes, lately.
He doesn't mean me but... Koume...
Why?
Hey, don't forget today's test is...
Leader!
Nakajima.
How was it?
Thanks to you, he pulled through.
Thank goodness. Oh, we pulled through too.
Thank you so much for everything.
Thank you so much. Now I'm going to put my everything into this meeting.
Let's just get this through!!
- Right? - Yep.
He does seem... cool...
We worked so hard.
It's finally the Imperial Council.
I'm counting on you. And you can count on me for the finals.
Everyone worked so hard.
I know. Honestly, I was surprised.
But... isn't it weird to work so hard for the meeting?
That's not the purpose... or the goal of things, right?
You don't have to do anything. Things will work out themselves.
But that means...
Just
let's get this day over with.
Alright?
Get it over with, huh.
Okay?
Fine.
Alright, I'm going to work hard for the final too.
Koume! What was NaNO3?
- Huh? - Sodium Nitrate.
Koume's dad is amazing!
He's my hero now!
Dad is amazing, huh.
Hm? Chemistry?
Today's final is
math and chem.
I forgot chemistry!
Huh?!
What are you going to do?
Koume! You'll be late!
Come on! Hurry!
Oops!
Hey! Wait!
Good luck on your meeting, Dad! See you later!
This drama is hecka fiction.
