==Plot==<br />
Nobuo ([[Mirai Moriyama]]) has been hired by a high-powered advertising agency, but he soon learns he may have been hired for his meek personality, which attracts bullies. His boss, Kawasaki ([[Ken Utsui]]), gives him a special assignment and a new name, Hakeguchi, which means "scapegoat." His job is to join teams that are having difficulty completing projects, the idea being that with a designated scapegoat the team members will have an outlet for their frustrations and work together more effectively.<br />
<br />
==Notes==<br />
# In 2007, TBS and publisher Kodansha teamed up to solicit original stories for a television drama. The winning story was adapted as a teleplay and the finished drama aired on March 31, 2008 as "Torishimarareyaku Shinyushain."<br />
# Based on novel "Torishimarareyaku Shinnyuushain" by [[Yusuke Ando (writer)|Yusuke Ando]] (published March, 2008 by Kodansha).<br />
# The title, "Torishimarareyaku Shinyushain" is a play on words. "Torishimaku" means company director or executive, but by injecting the passive voice (-rare) into the word, it takes on the meaning "to be controlled." "Shinyushain" means new employee.<br />
