In episode 37, Toki (Takaishi) struggles to avoid being fired as Heaven's (Tommy Bastow) maid, but her efforts are futile.
Toki tries to find the "beer" Heaven is looking for by asking his family for advice, but they only give him irrelevant answers. When Toki laments, "I'm fired!", Nishikori (Ryo Yoshizawa Ryo) tells him that "beer" can be purchased at Yamahashi Pharmacy. Toki meets the store owner, Yamahashi Saiji (Emoto Tokio), and successfully obtains the "beer," but an unexpected situation befalls Toki and Heaven... and so the story unfolds.
