Ép. 61: Nobuko Mayama organise un voyage à ski dans sa villa de montagne où une tempête de neige piège le groupe.

61

Nobuko Mayama invites Yamaoka and the "Culture Department Flower Trio" to visit the Mayama mountain villa. After a day skiing, the group eats dinner in the villa and is joined by Mr. Oide, a wealthy hotel owner, and his wife. Mr. Oide appears to be rude and domineering and his behavior makes his wife unhappy. When the group wakes up the next morning, a heavy snowstorm is raging, and they find themselves trapped in the hotel and the phone lines are down. Mr. Mayama then explains that the villa caretakers just cleaned out the pantry so they are out of food, which leads to Mr. Oide angrily blaming him for their predicament. Yamaoka digs up green onions from the garden and the women find some flour and sesame oil. Yamaoka uses these ingredients to make a type of flatbread called Laobing (Chinese Scallion pancakes). The group enjoys the meal and surprisingly, Oide compliments Yamaoka for calmly solving the problem and revises his way of thinking. Meanwhile, the storm has died down. (Source: Wikipedia)
