Plot

At the beach, Rock and Revy salivate as they watch meat cook while Dutch and Benny relax on beach chairs. When Revy asks Dutch if she can start eating the meat, Dutch replies that she does not have to hesitate, as he already received the shipping fee and it is not his fault that their client disappeared. Mentioning that he sold the product to the correct people, Dutch remarks that they have various leftover meat, including the Kobe beef which Revy is excited about. As Rock salivates at the meat, Revy asks him if it has too much fat, but he angrily rejects her characterization to her surprise. Checking the cooler, she finishes drinking the beer, telling Rock to buy some more for her. As Rock asks if there is truly no more alcohol left, Revy flashes a drunken smile and teasingly assures him that she will not eat all of the meat.

Hesitating, he orders Revy to stay put and not eat the Kobe beef or he will be angry enough to fight her. As he leaves, Revy expressed amusement at the sentiment while Benny joked that Rock would be in a grave in that situation. Walking in town, Rock mutters to himself about how he has not relaxed in a long time, deciding that he will hurry up in order to taste the meat in time. Moving past a car, he hears a splatter noise behind him as he thinks about meat. Turning around, he is shocked at the blood splatter on the windshield when Sawyer the Cleaner suddenly grabs his right arm. As a large, aproned man behind Rock wields a butcher knife, Sawyer thrusts her chainsaw into his chest, making Rock scream. Back at the beach, Eda, dressed in a U.S.A.-flag tank top, extends her tongue out and tries a piece of meat, commenting that the meat does not have an odor and that the taste bursts out when she takes a bite. Complimenting the Kobe beef with a thumbs up, she smiles at Revy, who instead glares at her and asks why she is there, telling her to go eat her bread and wine.

Pointing to her own shirt, Eda happily states that she is dressed up for a barbecue, but Revy berates her, saying that the meat is not for her. Eda defends herself by saying that Dutch invited her, trying another piece of meat and asking who cooked the delicious beef. Dutch chimes in and says that the Yellow Flag cook is responsible, surprising the women. Subsequently, Revy and Eda check out the brisket and sauce while the broad-shouldered cook, Nhân, flashes a smile and introduces himself. They also find out that wasabi is among the choices, pleasing them. Meanwhile, Rock helps Sawyer drag a body through a building and asks her where they are taking it. As Sawyer guides Rock to a backdoor, Rock does not recognize the place, and he is surprised to see a market with varieties of frozen meat behind the door. Going to one stand, two men greet Sawyer and ask her if she finished "cleaning." The men then notice Rock dragging the body, and they ask what they should do with the corpse. Consequently, they begin to put pieces of the dead man into a meat mincer, greatly disgusting Rock.

Back at the beach, Revy and Eda themselves watch Nhân put the beef through a meat mincer, and Eda jokes that Rock would faint if he saw the meat being ground, with Revy nonchalantly agreeing. At the market, Rock uncomfortably listens to Sawyer's two affiliates discuss how the man that Sawyer killed was a shopkeeper who tried to set up shop in their own black market, but they managed to stop him before he could escape his burnt butcher business. As the men mention how they are not sure if the other meats are human meat or authentic Kobe beef, they laugh it off and decide that they can market it as real meat either way, with Sawyer smiling at their proposition. Noticing all the meat around him that is likely human, Rock tries not to listen to the conversation anymore and covers his ears, but he hears them mention that the Yellow Flag cook Nhân is a frequent customer of theirs who recently bought meat from them.

Sawyer confirms that Rock is with her, and elsewhere Nhân prepares the remaining ingredients for the burgers, with Revy and Eda commenting on the buns, special sauce, and triple cheese. The black-aproned man jovially puts his arm around Rock and says that the warehouse is a secret, causing Rock to laugh nervously. Opening the large freezer where the meat is stored, Rock sees inside as his eyes widen and his jaw drops in shock. The black-aproned man, feeling indebted to Rock, asks him if he wants to buy anything, and he only answers that he needs beer. As Revy, Dutch, Benny and Eda eat their burgers, Rock returns and Revy greets him, showing him the burger and telling him that there is still plenty of Kobe beef left. Biting his lip in anguish, Rock lets out a loud scream and vomits. Asking what is wrong, Revy berates him for throwing up in front of everyone.
