The Democratic Liberal Party headquarters, which wants to clear its name in the next Tokyo gubernatorial election, recommends political commentator Eita Kawamoto (Satoshi Tokushige) as its official candidate. On the other hand, Shinjiro Kuroba (Koji Ishizaka), who controls the Tokyo government as a member of the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly, supports Masami Yomota (Reiko Takashima), a member of the Tokyo Metropolitan Council, and the Democratic Liberal Party candidates are at odds with each other. Furthermore, Tatsuya also decides to run for office due to a whisper from Kenichi Shitara (Toshiaki Karasawa). Meanwhile, an incident occurs in which Saki (Kara Otomo), the daughter of Takumi Ujihara (Masaya Kato), the president of Hamashio Construction, a major general contractor, is kidnapped. The culprit’s demand is for the cancellation of the Tokyo Bay reclamation project being carried out by Hamashio Construction under Democratic Liberal Party Secretary-General Ichiro Susaki (Kaoru Kobayashi) and others. In order to save Saki, Kenichi contacts President Ujihara and his close aide, the general manager Eiichi Onuki (Arata Furuta), and offers to play a role in negotiating with the criminal. Then, Kenichi comes up with an unprecedented method of “hostage exchange”… Who is the culprit in the kidnapping incident and what is his purpose?
