101

Touzai Deputy Director Tomii's son, Hitoshi, refuses to go on a field trip because his parents will not accompany him when they learn that the parents must also participate in a race. Tomii pressures Yamaoka and Kurita to play Hitoshi's parents for the day. At the school, Yamaoka notices a boy, Masashi, whose parents did not attend because of work, being bullied by other children while Hitoshi stands by. Yamaoka offers to run with Masashi, while Kurita runs with Hitoshi, and they win the race. Later, Hitoshi seeks Yamaoka's help because Masashi is still being bullied and being called a bean sprout. Yamoka decides to serve the children bean sprouts for lunch the next day. Initially reluctant, the children soon like his fried egg and bean sprout dish and an imitation shark fin soup (碗仔翅, fukahire) with stir-fried sprouts which enhance its flavour. He then reveals that Masashi spent a long time manually removing the heads and tails of the sprouts to make them taste better and the children change their attitude towards him. (Source: Wikipedia)
