Four occupants of a prison cell have their annual "The best food I ever had"- contest. Whoever tells the most mouth-watering story can choose any dish from the losers' New Year's dinner. New prisoner Kenta refuses to take part in the contest, since he doesn't share equally tasty memories as his cell mates.
