둘이 사는 모녀, 니쿠코와 키쿠코. 먹보에 촐랑이인 니쿠코는 정에 약하고 쉽게 사랑에 빠지는 성격 탓에 남자에게 자주 속아넘어간다. 예민할 나이인 초등 5학년 키쿠코는 그런 엄마가 요즘들어 조금 부끄럽다. 공통점이라곤 찾아볼 수 없는, 항구의 배에서 함께 살아가는 모녀의 비밀이 밝혀질 때, 둘에게 최고의 기적이 찾아온다.
Bakabon (Okarina) lives with his Papa (Ueda Shinya), Mama (Matsushita Nao) and younger brother Hajime-chan (Hayasaka Hirara). His bumbling Papa is a free spirit, hates lies and does not have a regular job while his beautiful, kind Mama lovingly watches over Papa. Honest and naive Bakabon and child genius Hajime-chan love him too. The family gets along well and lives happily. One trouble after another occurs around Papa and people get caught up in the uproar. Strangely enough, the bonds of the respective families deepen right after that. One day, when Papa is on a bus, an elderly lady gets a phone call. She is asked to bring money to her grandchild. It seems that she is being cheated in a “It’s me, It’s me!” scam. While the passengers on the bus are worrying for the elderly lady, Papa declares all of a sudden, “Leave it to me!” When Papa and the elderly lady get off the bus, she gets another phone call pestering her for money. Papa takes the phone and announces, “I’m Bakabon’s Papa!”
