Alex Brooker plays a man who's due to have a pioneering double hand transplant operation to give him five-fingered 'normal' hands.

Building Dutch courage in the pub he meets a barmaid and a barfly, with whom he contemplates what he stands to gain or lose from the operation. It all culminates in an encounter with his worried girlfriend who knows nothing about his operation.
