In a quiet mountain village stands an old traditional Japanese house. On the engawa, two W-shaped upturned bottoms are lined up as the stepmother and wife, each wearing differently colored aprons, energetically clean the floor on all fours. Contrary to the peaceful morning atmosphere, the husband keeps falling back asleep despite repeated attempts to wake him. Watching this, Mio pauses her cleaning, steps into the garden, and calls up toward the second-floor window, "Honey, wake up!" Finally roused by her voice, the husband sits up and appears at the window. Noticing the gazes of both his stepmother and wife, he shyly breaks into a smile. Urged again by his daughter-in-law, he hurriedly tries to get out of bed, though the scene continues to leave everyone laughing.
