Just stack it in the freezer, will you? I got to open up. Delivery Man: All right, you got it, boss. [SCENE_BREAK] [EXT.

He looks over and notices that it's already been used with ground up meat in the metal bin on the side.) (HARLAN walks over to the bin and looks inside. His eyes widen as he sees a bloody human hand sticking out.) FLASH TO WHITE: [SCENE_BREAK] [INT. METEOR MEAT - NIGHT]] (BRASS escorts GRISSOM and CATHERINE through the main meat packing area.)

Manny Saldano, age 37. Worked for meteor for eleven years. Shop foreman vouches for him. Says he inspected all three of his machines before he clocked him out. Grissom: Well
