Kimutaku is back in the coveted Monday 9 p.m. Fuji TV drama slot, which he used to own. SMAP's enduring heartthrob Takuya Kimura used to play topical professionals — airline pilots, race-car drivers, concert pianists — in his Monday night dramas, but in "Priceless" he does something unexpected. He plays a loser.
Fumio Kindaichi is a division manager whose people skills make him a valuable asset to his Tokyo company. Charming and fun-loving, he makes the most difficult business meeting run smoothly. But when the president dies, his son, Toichiro (Naoto Fujiki), takes over and everything changes. Fumio is accused of leaking confidential information and is fired. He not only loses his job, but also his home.
In episode 2, Fumio comes across enough money to rent a room for a night. Meanwhile, his former colleagues search for evidence that will prove him innocent and restore his honor.
