When Polly and her friends leave Lamonic Bibber for a seaside holiday, Mr Gum and his ally, butcher Billy William the Third, seize control of the town. However, their alliance crumbles when Billy discovers Mr Gum sneaking off to Greasy Ian's House of Slops for dinner. Enraged, Billy declares war, leading to a chaotic food fight with kebabs flying and streets running red with chilli sauce.
