Last two shows was a two-parter as Chocolate TV's long time variety show host Yoneda is retiring, he's been the face of them for many decades plus is responsible for most of their meager profits. Chocolate TV is going to produce a live documentary on Yoneda's life with many special guests appearing along with many highlights of his life. 

 Yoneda has been close to Chocolate TV's president Aramaki for a long time and when the pair were at a club one night he revealed the reason for his sudden retirement, that reason being he has stomach cancer. Aramaki is now determined to make the best documentary ever for his friend but the two questions arise and that's who is going to air the show and where will they get the funds. It appears as though Dai-Nippon TV will fund the whole documentary and it'll air on their station, they're also willing to supply a budget of 100 million yen! Their rivals Chuo TV aren't happy about hearing this and are working behind the scenes to woo Yoneda to have a documentary on their channel but are willing to spend only 50 million yen on it leaving Aramaki and the rest of the staff at Chocolate TV fuming which is where the episode ends to be continued.

 Rushing through these faster than I expected but then again these reviews haven't been all that long. Has been a few weeks since I finished this drama so it's a good thing I take many screenshots for each episode as I've already forgotten a few things. Actually the best thing about all of the screenshots up until now is that they feature Saki, these ones do too but for a change for this and the last episode have included all of the cast members, Yui also looks quite good in this drama.
