Actor Takuma is in a relationship with the actress he’s working together on their current film, but she is thinking of marriage while his feelings have recently gone cold. His cold attitude has gotten more obvious, and he breaks up with Satomi on set, causing a stop in the filming. Reeling from shock, Satomi leaves the movie. Time passes, and Takuma returns to his hometown and is working as a salaryman. He meets Rika, a plain-looking office worker, and starts a relationship with her believing he can turn her into his perfect woman. However, there’s no chance in the way they interact or have sex, and Takuma expresses his discontent with the constantly apologizing Rika. Takuma can’t make his way in the countryside so he decides to return to Tokyo yet again. Meanwhile, Satomi is still battling with her broken heart. Wanting to change her situation, Satomi asks Rin for advice, and Rin introduces her to Yoshio, an heir to a farming family, however, things don’t go as planned.
