Wakako (Takeda Rina), who is in a good mood because of the growth of new employee Ito-kun (Hasegawa Shinya) and Mii-san's (Yamada Kinuo) pregnancy, is drawn to the office when she sees a poster advertising a tuna cutting show. The excitement grows as she sips on a cold draft beer. The tuna is brought out and the cutting show begins. With the deft hands of the craftsman, the tuna, which was once a fish, is transformed into a food ingredient. The freshly cut sashimi is paired with hot sake.
"How about ramen?" Shiraishi asks, to which Hasegawa replies, "I had a quick drink at a ramen shop yesterday." The men get excited talking about the trendy quick drink thing. When Chief Okada says, "Ramen shops are great, aren't they?", Wakako passes by and can't help but reply, "That's true!".
New employee Ito-kun (Hasegawa Shinya) speaks passionately, but Chief Okada (Shiotsuka Kohei) brushes it off by saying, "What's right isn't always the right answer." Wakako (Takeda Rina) thinks, "There are certainly some things you can only understand after time has passed."
During her lunch break, Wakako (Takeda Rina) peruses a magazine feature on shopping streets. When she says she's going to go food-hopping on her next day off, Mii-san (Yamada Kinuo) and the others tease her, saying, "You're going to go bar-hopping, aren't you?" Wakako arrives at Nakano's Kawashima Shopping Street and strolls around, looking into the market. The first place she chooses is a former camera shop. Although they say they serve lunch, she orders chilled tomatoes and a sour to cool down. The vitamins of lycopene seep in. Next, she has chicken wasabi and potato shochu... After picking up souvenirs for Mii-san and the others at a Japanese sweets shop, Wakako heads to a retro bar. A highball is appropriate for dusk. The bartender recommends an Evan Williams bourbon, which she opts for along with some piping hot sesame-salted cabbage. And what will she choose to finish off her day off with...?
Chief Okada instructs them to write down their summer vacation plans. Pregnant Mii-san is going to a nearby resort, while Abe-chan (Watanabe Mizuki) is going to a fireworks festival on a houseboat. They all get excited talking about their plans, but Wakako's (Takeda Rina) schedule book is completely blank. When she leaves work on time, the sky is still bright. Feeling the summer, Wakako is drawn to corn tempura.
It's busy season and the office is filled with a murderous atmosphere. Hasegawa , who has just returned from a business trip, says that outside is a fireworks festival and the place is packed. Seeing everyone exhausted, Chief Okada treats them to pizza delivery and non-alcoholic beer. They all gather around the pizza and have a good time. The fireworks start and they watch them from the office window. Even though it's non-alcoholic, Ito-kun staggers around, which is comforting. Feeling refreshed, they can work hard.
For Wakako (Takeda Rina), good alcohol and good food are the best things to meet. Tonight, she goes to a new restaurant in search of new encounters. She orders draft beer and "potatoes with buttered karasumi". Wakako enjoys the combination of buttered potatoes and karasumi. She drizzles soy sauce on them. She also enjoys the soy sauce butter.
The change of seasons is busy. Wakako (Takeda Rina) works overtime every day and doesn't have time to go out drinking. She's exhausted, so she goes to a nice-looking restaurant in the downtown area for a drink during her break. She starts off with sliced onions and draft beer. She washes away the fatigue of the day with a cold beer. The recommended menu on the wall is the "Famous Liver Fry". Tsukishima's soul food is liver cutlet. She enjoys it with a beer mixed with shochu, Chappy. Wakako feels completely refreshed. And then, the month of overtime is finally over. She heads to a back alley where she can have a drink without any worries. A small izakaya with only a counter and a sign saying "Homemade curry". She pairs her pork belly curry with an original lemon vinegar drink.
During her lunch break, Wakako (Takeda Rina) is influenced by Abe-chan (Watanabe Mizuki) as she looks through a Korean guidebook, and with her head full of thoughts of Korean food, she comes to Shin-Okubo, where she can get a taste of Korea without being in Japan.
She goes to work as usual, finishes her work without a hitch, and it's a peaceful day with nothing happening around her. On a day like this, she wants to have a drink with something ordinary, not something rare or expensive. Wakako (Takeda Rina) goes into a local restaurant bustling with regulars. She chooses simmered mackerel from the side dishes lined up in the display case and eats it with a bottle of beer. The hostess pours her special miso on it, so she can enjoy two different flavors. Running out of alcohol, Wakako adds some chilled sake. She orders vinegared octopus and savors the end of a peaceful day.
Wakako (Takeda Rina) is late because she has been putting together documents that Hasegawa (Sakoi Takayuki) has asked her to do. It's chilly due to the change of seasons, and she feels like she has caught a cold. Seeking warmth, Wakako goes into a desert oasis-like restaurant and is drawn to a large piece of garlic. She learns from the manager that the garlic is from Aomori and has a mild smell, so she orders garlic baked in foil and a lemon highball. Wakako's appetite is whetted after eating the steaming garlic, and she adds stuffed peppers and a highball. Drinkers have a way to cure themselves. Wakako feels much better now.
After Chief Okada (Shiotsuka Kohei) declares that this month's quota has been met, Wakako (Takeda Rina) is able to go home early with a clean slate. In high spirits, she heads to a standing craft beer bar that she has been interested in for a while. She enjoys Kyodo Ale, brewed in the attached brewery, and sirloin steak.
