Spoiler shield
Riki, who works as a temp, is distressed when her colleague invites her to earn money by donating her eggs. However, after taking the interview, she realizes it’s not for egg donation but for surrogacy. A former ballet dancer, Kusaoke Motoi, and his wife, Yuko, are looking for a surrogate mother to bear their child in exchange for high rewards.
