Svend and Bjarne decide to start their own butcher shop when they become fed up with their boss' arrogance. But the business is failing and to top it off, they accidentally lock up an electrician in their freezer where he dies.

So when their former boss taunts them about their failure and challenges them to provide meat for a dinner party, Svend makes filets out of the electrician's thigh and serves it. The party is a success and the next morning, people line up at their shop for meat.
