In the special two-hour drama "Garasu no Kiba" (The Glass Fang; TBS, Mon., 9 p.m.), an FM radio disk jockey named Akiko (Atsuko Takahata) is asked by the authorities to monitor and supervise a troubled teen named Yuka (Moe Arai).

Yuka was caught shoplifting by the police and then released without being arrested. It is hoped that Akiko can somehow counsel her in such a way that she won't get into any more trouble. Akiko talks to the girl over and over and eventually comes to learn of her dysfunctional family background.

She seems to be making progress, but then one day Yuka doesn't show up for an appointed meeting, and Akiko finds it impossible to contact her. Days pass and then Akiko finally finds the girl while she is in the middle of another shoplifting attempt.
