They're both still single and approaching 50. They built and run "Café Diamond Head," a replica of the original set, on the seashore in Chiba. Konami and Nagito live carefree lives, interacting with the unique characters who frequent the café. However, an incident occurs when a reporter for a women's magazine, Kanae Mori (Noriko Iriyama), interviews them. Konami's mysterious love, Nagito's hidden past, and the threat of buying Diamond Head... As they experience these various events, what kind of future will the two find for themselves? And at the drama's climax, a random visitor arrives at Diamond Head... It's none other than the man who starred in "Beach Boys"!
