The demands of his scientific work require Kazuya to live most of the time at his laboratory, visiting home only occasionally. In this domestic drama, the scientist has returned for one of his rare visits home. At first, his two sons are simply delighted to see him. Before long, they notice that there is considerable coolness between their parents. Kazuya has just told her that he has a mistress at his workplace residence. This news creates quite a furor not only with his wife but with his sons, and Kazuya gives the whole thing a second thought. Eventually he ditches his mistress, apologizes to his wife, and manages to patch his family back together.
