Wasabi (2001)
Nadat de onbeschofte rechercheur Hubert onbedoeld de zoon van zijn baas een klap in het gezicht heeft gegeven, krijgt hij van de commissaris het advies een korte vakantie te nemen. Hubert accepteert dit met tegenzin en besluit dan ook wat meer tijd voor zichzelf te nemen. Dan krijgt hij een bizat telefoontje uit het Japan. Een notaris vertelt hem dat Miko, de liefde van zijn leven die hij al meer dan 20 jaar niet heeft gezien, onder vreemde omstandigheden is gestorven. Zij is hem echter niet vergeten, want hij blijkt haar wettige erfgenaam te zijn. Wat zij hem heeft nagelaten is meer dan een testament, meer dan een cadeau, meer dan zo maar een probleem... Het is Yumi Yoshimodo, zijn zeer recalcitrante dochter. Samen met zijn oud-collega Momo zet hij Tokyo op z'n kop om Yumi uit de meest benarde situaties te redden.
