Bad Meat plot
"When it comes to kidnapping these guys stink"
Buddy and Earl are two losers with their own problems. Earl wants nothing more than to marry Pam, who, however, sets far too high standards for Earl's standards. Buddy sees himself, quite wrongly, as a genius criminal. He comes up with the idea of kidnapping a corrupt congressman for ransom. Earl likes this, because maybe he can meet the high demands of his dream woman. Their plan falls apart when the congressman dies, and his body is accidentally processed in the meat processing plant where Earl works and ends up on the market. Earl and Buddy try to track down the 'wrong meat' so the family can have a fantastic goodbye at the funeral.
