130

Chairman Niki asks Ohara for Touzai News to design and manage a restaurant on the top floor of the Nito group's new headquarters. Ohara is reluctant, but when Niki threatens to offer the opportunity to Teito News, Ohara accepts and assigns the task to a reluctant Yamaoka. When Yamaoka starts working on the project, Niki offers him a 51% stake in the restaurant if he joins the Nito group. Yamaoka encounters Teruko, Mariko's aunt, who implies Yamaoka is expected to marry Mariko which leaves Kurita visibly upset. Later, Yamaoka invites Chairman Niki to the Sarden restaurant and he arrives to see Yamaoka, Kurita, Mariko and Kinjō. The group enjoys the offerings of the restaurant, all the dishes include sardine. Yamaoka explains that the owner built the restaurant from scratch using a fish that has traditionally been seen as inferior then adds that he cannot accept the offer because he would be achieving something without using his own ability. Chairman Niki understands Yamaoka's principles, but wants Yamaoka to continue his work on the new restaurant and he agrees. As they walk home, a relieved Kurita offers to take Yamaoka out for a drink. (Source: Wikipedia)
