When he learns from his former landlady Mrs. Lovett that his wife poisoned herself after being assaulted by the judge who wrongly transported him (Judge Turpin by name), he vows revenge. To this end, he forms a partnership with Mrs. Lovett, an enterprising bar mistress whose meat pies soon become the tastiest in London!
