The sixth episode of the TBS Sunday Theatre "Reboot" (Sundays at 9pm), starring Suzuki Ryohei, was broadcast on March 1st, and viewers were shocked by the behavior of Hinako, played by Fukiishi Kazue, the wife of Goro Wataru (Kitamura Yukiya).
◇The following contains spoilers.
Hinako, played by Kazue Fukiishi, is a full-time housewife who cares about her family and is the mother of her eldest daughter, Hinata, who is in fifth grade, and her eldest son, Kouki, who is in third grade. Her role is that she is unaware of her husband, Goroku's secret work.
In episode 6, Gido (Suzuki) goes alone to Goroku's (Kitamura Yukiya) house to rescue his wife Mayu (Kuroki Meisa). Hinako greets Gido calmly, and when he is shown into her study, she brings him pizza and champagne, saying, "My husband baked this. Please have some if you like."
Gido negotiates with Ichika to find out the whereabouts of the lost 10 billion yen in exchange for Mayu's release, but the negotiations break down. Gido tries to take Goroku hostage, but he staggers and collapses.
Goroku took the gun from the immobile Gido and said, "My wife doesn't know what kind of work I'm involved in. But we've shared good times and bad times together for many years, so she's very quick-witted. I've already taught her what to do in situations like this."
Hinako's seemingly harmless but unexpected behavior has caused shock on social media, with comments such as "Goroku's wife is crazy," "Even his wife is not easy to deal with," "Goroku's wife is pretty crazy too lol," and "It's actually scary that she's cooperating to this extent despite not knowing what her husband's job is."
