Scenes
In the opening scene, Keiko (Rena Tanaka) rushes into her house and the camera shows her feet as she jogs in place a bit in desperation. She sits on the toilet and pees, but apparently flushes as she goes so there is no pee audio. She then pulls back the shower curtain and discovers her boyfriend hiding in the tub with another woman.
