With no known cause or solution at hand, Sho reluctantly ends up appearing in the Diet on his father’s behalf. But he completely cannot follow the deliberations as well as the questions and answers because it has been his routine to skip his studies. He is also repeatedly caught making childish responses or misreading kanji in documents. However, untainted by the adult world, Sho's straightforward opinions and genuine feelings start to mobilise the Diet and the public. On the other hand, Taizan has to lead the life of a university student and search for a job on behalf of his son, but with the brains of a prime minister. He refutes arrogant interviewers with his overwhelming knowledge and debating skills. Although Taizan wins the war of words, he is an absolute failure in the interviews itself. Furthermore, several peculiar girls whom Sho has had relationships with appear and makes Taizan more bewildered. -- Jdrama Weblog **Cast** Endo Kenichi as Muto Taizan Suda Masaki as Muto Sho Motokariya Yuika as Minami Mai Jiyoung as Murano Erika Hara Kintaro as Yamikumo Wataru Iketani Nobue as Yamikumo Ikuyo Minemura Rie as Muto Aya Yamauchi Takaya (山内圭哉) as Nitta Satoru Rokkaku Seiji as Konaka Jutaro Takahashi Issei as Kaibara Mohei Kaneda Akio as Kariya Koji Kusakari Masao as Kuramoto Shiro Nishida Toshiyuki as Shiroyama Kazuhiko Guests Asakura Shinji (朝倉伸二) as Emi Yoshinobu
