Synopsis
In the Ginza district, Miwa runs the bar "Erica" which is owned by her patron, Nonomiya. Her top hostess Hideko is conducting an affair with Tatsuya, a popular singer and ex-lover of Miwa. After a quarrel with Hideko, Miwa plots to break up Hideko's romance by using a new girl, Yuka, to lure Tatsuya away. The scheme succeeds and Hideko quits the Erica, moves to another bar in the Ginza, and takes with her several hostesses. Miwa now becomes jealous of Yuka and Tatsuya. An article about the couple in a national magazine causes a scandal which forces the couple to break up. Yuka learns that the article was written by Miwa, and she gains her own revenge by informing Nonomiya that his mistress is having an affair with the Erica's manager, Oki. Nonomiya breaks off relations with Miwa, who marries Oki and leaves the city. Yuka now takes over Miwa's job and apartment after seducing Nonomiya, while insisting she is his business partner rather than his mistress. Yuka has problems at the Erica because Hideko has taken away many of her hostesses, and she decides, over Nonomiya's objections, to change the club into a go-go bar. The new business is a success until Nonomiya suddenly dies, and coincidentally the Erica's license is revoked because minors were employed at the club. Shunichi, Nonomiya's son and the new owner, wants to sell out to Yuka, who now loves him, but she insists that he sell instead to Hideko. Yuka soon discovers that Hideko was responsible for the Erica's license being suspended, but Yuka can hold no grudges against her former rival.
