A severed hand! Dee-lish! But be careful - we've heard that baked hand causes heartburn!" </p><p>A green duck, Little Nerkin, passes the house of the Minotaur who invites him in, while dancing to music (a version of "<a href="/wiki/Walk,_Don%27t_Run_(instrumental)" title="Walk, Don't Run (instrumental)">Walk Don't Run</a>", originally by <a href="/wiki/The_Ventures" title="The Ventures">The Ventures</a>). After Nerkin walks in the house, he sees a severed hand bouncing on the table and convinces Minotaur to cook it for him. After heating the hand in the microwave, Minotaur serves the hand to Nerkin, who swallows it whole. However, the hand causes heartburn, which leads to Nerkin's death. It is then revealed that it was all a part of Minotaur's plan to cook and eat Nerkin. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Characters">Characters</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Minotaur_and_Little_Nerkin&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Characters"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <ul><li>Minotaur</li> <li>Little Nerkin</li> <li>Severed hand</li></ul> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Production">Production</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Minotaur_and_Little_Nerkin&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Production"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Films at 59 was responsible for the sound.
