Minare Koda, a floor manager at a small restaurant in Sapporo, tries to deal with her bad breakup with an ex-boyfriend. In the process, she drunkenly vents her frustrations to an older man sitting next to her at a local bar. The following day, she discovers that the man works as a producer at a nearby radio station, which broadcast her drunken ramblings over the airwaves.

Minare Koda responds to listener questions on a 3 AM radio talk show while being chased by a bear. The show flashes back to the recent past where Minare vents her feelings about her ex-boyfriend to a man she meets at a bar. The next day, Minare goes back to her job at a restaurant when she finds out the man was a radio producer named Kanetsugu Matou, who left her his business card. During her shift, she hears her own drunken rant broadcast over the radio station, playing on the speakers in the restaurant. Enraged, she abruptly leaves her shift to confront Kanetsugu at his radio station, but then gets pressed into finishing her thoughts about her ex-boyfriend live on air.

Kantesugu and his staff believe that Minare showed some real talent on air, while Minare quickly rises in popularity among the locals and restaurant patrons. Kanetsugu offers Minare a part-time position at the radio station and reveals that he used to be a TV producer but switched to radio when he grew tired of the types of talent he was forced to promote.

Later, Minare is offered a room with Mizuho Nanba, an Assistant Director, who did not want her to stay in the radio station's storage room.
