Synopsis

Ken Watanabe, Hollywood's favorite Japanese actor at the moment, plays against type in the original two-hour drama, "Hoshi Hitotsu no Yoru" (A Night of One Star; Fuji, Fri., 9 p.m.), as a concert hall custodian named Nonoyama.

One night after a performance, Nonoyama is cleaning the auditorium when he finds a man's coat with 500,000 yen in cash and an envelope. He brings the coat and the money to the address on the envelope. The owner, a man named Taiki (Hiroshi Tamaki), is a day trader who didn't really notice that he was missing all that money. When he offers Nonoyama 200,000 yen as a reward, the custodian says, "Don't insult me," and walks away.

Taiki spends all day in front of the computer and has almost no human contact. He can't stop thinking about Nonoyama, whom he recognizes as a fellow loner. The next day he goes to the concert hall to seek him out, and he later discovers why Nonoyama has cut himself off from society.~TokyoTimes
