PLOT:
Pac-Man, a yellow eating anthropomorphic ball known as "Pac-Person" created by Japanese video game company Bandai Namco, chases down to target his ghost enemies, Blinky, Inky, Pinky and Clyde. His brothers-in-arms; Ice Pac, an icy transformation of Pac-Man; and Metal Pac, a magnetic transformation of Pac-Man as well; joins him. They successfully retrieved the money back to the right place upon eating Blinky and Inky, unaware to see Pinky and Clyde around.

At home, Pac-Man is making two slices of bread in a toaster when questioned about Christmas by Ice Pac and Metal Pac. However, the three are found by Pinky and Clyde on the helicopter, whom the Pac-Persons takes cover as Pinky shoots at them with the machine gun. The ghosts' plan fails, only to discover there's two £20 notes in there, and the ghosts robbed it. However, Ice Pac and Metal Pac successfully stops them just in time by throwing a nuclear weapon in the hands of Pinky. Pinky and Clyde sees the bomb that it reads "Suck your mum", only for the bomb to explode, destroying the helicopter and turning the remaining ghosts into blue. The ghosts plummets down to the ground (referencing to the 2013 YouTube video "Pac-Cop") and are eaten by three Pac-Persons who retrieved two £20 notes. Four ghosts are put in jail, and the Pac-Persons celebrates and leaves the scene, as the short ends.
