Plot Synopsis by AsianWiki Staff ©

Remi Amamiya (Saki Takaoka) is a housewife. She is married to Takeshi (Ryohei Odai) and they have fraternal twin daughters Rika (Momoko Tanabe) and Yuka (Mayu Yamaguchi). Takeshi works as a doctor and runs a clinic. The family lives in a large home in a high-end residential area of Tokyo.

Remi Amamiya then has a new housekeeper Sachiko (Mayuko Fukuda). Remi Amamiya introduces herself as "28-year-old Remi," which makes Sachiko embarrassed. Sachiko doesn't think Remi looks anywhere close to 28, but Sachiko accepts the comment as a joke. Sachiko then begins to work for the Amamiya family. The Amamiya family looks like a perfect family, but, behind that veneer, there is love, hate, jealousy, and sadness all around them. A murder takes place.
