Screenwriter Tsutomu Futani (Hiroshi Tachi) is having trouble writing what he really wants to write for the TV drama he is currently writing and is behind schedule. While being rushed by producer Okaishi (Jinpachi Nezu), he is unluckily trapped in a toilet and is rescued by Aomori Police Detective Mizusawa (B-Saku Sato). Mizusawa says that he is investigating a fake person who is travelling around fraudulently in the name of Nitani. The impostor Nitani (Kiichi Nakai) was travelling at the time and met a prostitute 'Omocha' (Hiromi Nagasaku), who aspired to become a screenwriter, and decided to take Omocha on as an apprentice and travel together. Then one day, Nitani sends Nitani a manuscript written by Omocha... This comedy, written by Satoshi Kuramoto out of love for TV dramas, won the 37th Galaxy Award for Encouragement. There is a theory that the late writer Tsutomu Futani's model is the famous Koki Mitani, but is this true...?
