One day, she finds some of her mother's belongings at a relative's house, and she heads to Tokyo to seek out the truth behind her birth.

Meanwhile, Futaba is a college student living in Tokyo who is focused on her band. She gets an opportunity to appear on television, though her mother is strongly opposed to it. Naturally, Mariko is shocked when she happens to see Futaba on television, since the two of them look completely alike.

Ini cerita tentang 2 orang gadis yg mencari identitas dan asal-usul mereka. Mariko dan Futaba serupa tapi tak sama.  Apakah mereka anak kembar identik yg terpisah?  Siapa orang tua mereka?  Cerita yg menarik dan penuh misteri.  Bikin penasaran, enak nontonnya.  Masami Nagasawa sukses memerankan 3 karakter.

Ending : Happy
Spoiler ...
Ternyata Mariko dan Futaba bukan anak kembar, tapi hasil kloning.  Ini semua ulah Ujie Kiyoshi, ayah Mariko. Futaba yg lebih tua 1 tahun adalah hasil kloning pertama dari sel telur mantan kekasih Ujie Kiyoshi, yg dimasukkan rahim asistennya, Ibu Futaba sebagai surrogate mother.  Sedangkan Mariko dikloning 1 tahun kemudian, dimasukkan ke dalam rahim istrinya sendiri. Belakangan mereka berdua akan dijadikan obyek percobaan lagi untuk kloning, beruntung mereka bisa melarikan diri atas bantuan Ujiie Kiyoshi yg sudah bertobat.  Futaba menikah dengan rekan pemain band dan punya anak, sedangkan Mariko jadi guru.
