The life of a private eye is feast or famine when it comes to steady clients. Today Richard Diamond has a feast day, when a butcher enters his office with a problem over extortion. Angelino and his butcher friends have just hired Richard by paying off in meat products. The meat and food puns come fast and furious, as the wisecracking Richard weighs in as a butcher in disguise. He may be a good investigator, but his customer service skiills need work.
Facing off with the thugs, Richard refuses to pay off. When the extortionists start breaking up the shop, Richard does some of his own breaking bad on them. The encounter ends with someone getting a thump on the head.
After his little nap, Richard is all the more determined to deal witth the thugs, although Angelino is ready to give in to them. What will he learn when visiting his pals in the police department? All Richard has to go on is the names, Red and Carl.
The extortion ring is too big for the small time heavies, and Richard visits the gang boss, Tiny Easter. Revenge on the thugs is the goal, but if Richard can take down Easter, it’ll be icing on the cake for him.
Fists fly, heads are thumped, and the cops are clued in on the site of Richard’s final revenge to shut down the criminals. By the time the blazing guns go silent, all that’s left is for Walt and Otis to come in to clean up. But who will get the last laugh?
