With her husband's pay cut and the household struggling, 42-year-old Aoi applies for a well-paid part-time job at a nearby convenience store. The middle-aged manager, Ozawa, seems suspicious but immediately has her try working the register. After she gets home, he calls to say 30,000 yen is missing—and the unfamiliar cash is somehow in her jacket pocket. Unable to clear her name, Aoi returns to the store and submits to his obscene interview without realizing the entire theft was a setup.
