Because she was a bit too successful fighting the Mizuchi girls (Hitomi
Takahashi, Natsumi Asano, Yasuko Endo), highschool girl/undercover cop
Saki (Yuki Saito) is expelled from her school, the Takahona Academy, which
has long gotten under the Mizuchis' influence and is about to become the
nerve center in the Mizuchis' plan to take over Japan. Thing is, they want
to get rid of all the regular students of the academy and fill it up with
the sons and daughters of the top families instead - to brainwash the kids
and make them slaves of the Mizuchi-clan. Most of the regular students are
easily goltten rid of, but a few remain and soon become troublemakers,
first and foremost ganggilr Miwaki. So Reimi Mizuchi (Hitomi Takahashi)
comes up with the idea to become friends with her (without giving away her
real identity) and make her leader of a student rebellion - and once the
rebellion has picked up speed, it's easy for Reimi, who has in the
meantime become the academy's principal, to throw the whole bunch of
troublemakers out. This whole affair drives Saki mad to such an extent
that she wants to kill Reimi's father, the man behind everything, but on
the way to the Mizuchi-mansion she is run over by a bicycle repairman,
Katagiri, who nurses Saki back to health though and turns out to be one of
the nicest persons who even manages to make Saki smile ... and then he
turns out to be an undercover detective out to get the Mizuchis just like
Saki. And in their shootout with the Mizuchis, Katagiri is shot dead while
Saki is beaten to a pulp and captured. Fun two-parter that
might be incredibly far-fetched - but it's exactly the over-the-top plot
couopled with the series' inherent campiness that makes this work ... not
as a masterpiece of course or a serious TV-thriller, just as a fun way to
spend two half hours.
