Willard is an overworked, underpaid chauffeur who works for a mean-spirited pie heiress named Mrs. Crock, just as his father did before him. All Willard wants for Christmas is a new uniform, since the one he wears is the very same he’s buried in, but Crock responds with a cheap pair of cuff links and a pie, while showering lavish gifts on her business partner Chip Oswald and her prized dog Muffin. At the end of a long day, Willard and his best friend Rusty, who runs a local chicken restaurant, hatch a plan to kidnap Muffin and demand a $1,000,000 ransom. Muffin attacks, leaving behind a trail of destruction and blood, the plan collapses when the dog slips away.
