Synopsis

Spoiler shield

An omnibus special featuring four stories: two former bullies who reunite years after their friend’s suicide and face a terrifying coincidence; a banker who becomes the target of cruel public criticism; an announcer who starts giving away her possessions after taking a monk’s advice; and three men caught in a battle of wits over a drug trafficking case on a train.

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
