Episode overview
Wakako (Takeda Rina) is wiping the sweat off her brow as she walks home from shopping on her day off. She stops in her tracks at a shop curtain with the words "eel and game" written on it. She happens to catch the eye of the store manager, who has just come out to see off some customers, and is led inside the store. Wakako is in the mood to eat eel, and the manager recommends the eel tempura with seaweed on top, which she orders along with a draft beer. It's a rare dish of eel tempura wrapped in nori seaweed. Wakako finishes it in no time and then moves on to the all-you-can-eat obanzai (traditional side dish). She also adds some sweet potato shochu water. The next day, Wakako brags about it at work...
