In this workplace comedy, Takeda, a 47-year-old business executive, is suddenly transformed into an infant with an out-of-control body but a mind that is as sharp as ever.

Meanwhile, his subordinates have to cope with the unusual circumstances and learn more about the meaning of understanding and compassion along the way.
