After being attacked by Dr. Frankenstein's monsters, Billy and his companions are taken prisoner and locked in the doctor's dungeon. Over dinner, Dr. Frankenstein explains how eagerly he is awaiting the dissection of and experimentation on such a unique set of subjects. But after exchanging a volley of insults with Billy, Dr. Frankenstein judges him to be of little worth, bemoaning the necessary "petty violences" of Billy's existence. Jeffrey, "the miniature boy," on the other hand, is a perfect surgical specimen for one of the good doctor's "experiments."
