While trying to repair the Autochef, Wallace tries a new contraption, the ceiling-mounted Turbo Diner. After inserting a 10p coin into the electric meter, he and Gromit sit at the table. The device clamps their wrists and ankles to their chairs with spiked protection bands on their wrists and spiked protection leg bracelets on their ankles whilst a powerful vacuum sucks all the debris off the table, after which another mechanism sets it and delivers a piping-hot meal. The energy required to do this severely depletes the meter and as the machine lights the candles (with a typically over-the-top flame thrower) the meter runs out leaving the pair clamped to their chairs, unable to move. It also results in a power outage. After the candles burn out leaving the pair in darkness, Wallace says, "Don't worry, I've got a great idea", in homage to The Italian Job.
