Tenichi Iemori is the eldest of three, just starting his second year of high school; after his father was transferred, he assumed household cooking and cleaning duties, then started a part-time job cleaning houses, saving his earnings for college. He is the class representative, joined by his crush Honoka Kanai, the class sub rep, and on the first day of school is assigned to welcome Himari Yoshino, a new transfer student who is a popular influencer with her own line of makeup. That afternoon, he begins work at a new client's luxurious yet filthy apartment; it turns out to be Himari's, and she swears him to secrecy over its condition to protect her brand. Himari soon expands his role to provide daily homemade bento. While dressing incognito to shop for cleaning supplies together, Himari and Tenichi run into Honoka at her part-time job as a coffee barista; after they leave, Honoka is envious that Himari and Tenichi apparently are growing closer. Tenichi gives Himari a cooking lesson so she can sustain the domestic goddess illusion created by Tenichi's lunches during an in-class cooking unit. An energetic Mayumi Konoe inadvertently hints at Honoka's feelings for Tenichi before cancelling her plans with Honoka, leaving a spare ticket, and Himari encourages Honoka to use it and ask Tenichi to a stand-up comedy show.
