Goro arrives in Akabane, Kita Ward, pleasantly surprised at how the town has changed. He goes to fruit shop and cafe called "Puchi Mondo" to meet with his client, a rather eccentric lady dressed up in GothLoli-style clothes. She asks him to find akuma (devil) statues for her collection. After his strange meeting, he stays at the cafe to have some refreshments, a fruity creamy sandwich set. Next, he goes to his second client, an owner of a kimono shop. As he arrives there, he is told by the owner's daughter that her father has gone off to another place and asks to meet him there. She gives him some directions plus a heavy bag and umbrella to "please give it to him since you're headed there anyway..." Goro obliges and walks around town to a meeting place that turns out to be a snack bar. The walk made Goro very hungry and of course, we know what that means... He remembers a certain eel shop he visited before and goes to look for it. However, another nearby eel shop catches his eye... It's called "Kawaei" which serves grilled eel, eel rice bowls, and guinea fowl dishes...
井之頭五郎（松重豊）は、その日商用で「赤羽」を訪れた。
久しぶりの街。20年か？かわったなあ・・・。
『YO！YO！赤羽女子（バネジョ）』の大看板に苦笑。
今日の一人目の顧客、黒田真理子（広田レオナ）に会うため、喫茶店『プチモンド』を探す。店に入るとかなり怪しげな黒づくめの女性が・・・まさかの黒田だった。
黒田は「パズズ」とか「アモン」いう悪魔の像がほしいというのだが・・・。
黒田を先に帰すと気分直しに「フルーツサンド」を注文し、ひと時癒される五郎だった。
次の顧客を訪ね、呉服店を訪ねると店主の南木（千本松）はおらず、何やら重い紙袋をあずけられ近くのスナックへ行かされた。そこへ行くとママ（清水ミチコ）と南木と友人が、昼から楽しそうに飲んでいた。
注文の品と紙袋を渡す五郎。紙袋の中身は、何と重い卒業アルバムだった。
疲れを感じつつも懐かしさに町を歩く。
ふと、以前入ったうなぎ屋『まるます家』を見つけ心が揺らぐも、新規開拓と『川栄』に入り、「ほろほろの鳥の合わせ盛り」「ほろバラ串」「ほろあぶら串」「鰻のオムレツ」「ほろスープ」まで頼む五郎。
ひとりの中年男性客（石倉三郎）が白焼きと日本酒を堪能し、くぅ～。などと声を上げている。（フッ）いい気なもんだ。などと思いつつ、その美味しさについつい自分の声を上げてしまう五郎だった。
そして五郎がしめに頼んだのは「うな重」ではなく、「うな丼」だった。
20년만에 도쿄, 아카바네 역에서 내린 고로(마츠시게 유타카)는 많이 변한 거리의 모습에 놀라게 된다. 거래 상대인 마리코(히로타 레오나)의 수상한 패션과 원하는 상품의 기발함에 체기를 느낀 고로는 후르츠 샌드위치로 기분전환을 하고, 다음 일을 하러 간다. 이번엔 제멋대로인 거래상대, 미나키(센본마츠 키헤이)에게 휘둘린다. 일을 끝낸 고로는 전에 갔던 가게를 향하지만, 도중에 방향전환을 하게 된다 새로운 길을 열어보겠다며 냄새가 좋은 장어가게에 들어간다.
