From Japan Times:

A new type of anti-hero debuts Thursday night in the first installment of the drama series "Saru Lock" (Nihon TV, 11:58 p.m.). Saru (Hayato Ichihara) is a master locksmith and a notorious ladies man to boot. He just can't keep his hands off the young girls, and his chosen profession turns out to be an advantage in this regard.

In this week's episode, Saru attends a retailers association meeting in the shopping area where he keeps his locksmith and key duplicating store. The association is all up in arms because a "dating club" has just opened for business in the area, and the members believe that such an unsavory sort of enterprise will attract undesirable types.

The association assigns Saru and his two associates to investigate the dating club. For this particular mission, Saru's locksmithing skills come in handy, but not as handy as his irrepressible urge to meet attractive young ladies.
