It's up to Franklin to rescue Michael, alone. While Franklin doesn't have much to go on, he manages to pinpoint Michael's location by using an app on his phone called [[Trackify]], which Lester provides (this is the same app used during the offshore option of [[The Merryweather Heist]]). As Franklin tries to look for him, the game switches to Michael, who is hanging upside down in a meat-packing plant. Michael tries to tell the leader Wei Cheng that he is not Trevor's Ji Lao (gay friend), but Wei refuses to believe the truth and turns on the machine and leaves when he decides Trevor will not be coming. A timer appears on the screen.

Unlike standard GTA fares where the GPS would automatically indicate the shortest route to your destination, the player is only given a vague beacon to follow. Upon arrival at the [[Los Santos Triads|Triad's]] hideout, a meat factory called [[Raven Slaughterhouse]], Franklin finds a ladder which takes him to the roof of the factory, where a narrow walkway leads to the front of the building. At this point, Franklin sees two Triad members and kills them, either stealthily or guns blazing. Luckily, the triads are relatively bad shots. Franklin is sure he has the right location, as he hears Michael's scream from somewhere in the factory.

Unlike standard GTA fares where the GPS would automatically indicate the shortest route to your destination, the player is only given a vague beacon to follow. Upon arrival at the triads' hideout, a meat factory called [[Raven Slaughterhouse]], Franklin can go onto the roof via the back for a shooting position, or come in the front all guns blazing.
   
After shooting through the Triads, Franklin turns a corner and sees Michael alive, yet strung up by his feet and soon to be joining the other swaying, upside-down corpses as well if Franklin doesn't react quickly. Franklin kills a Triad member who was pointing a gun towards Franklin threatening to kill him. Franklin then tosses Michael a pistol while players are given the option to switch from Franklin to Michael. If the players decide to switch to Michael, they'll play as the latter who is still hanging upside-down as even more Triads burst into the room. One goon charges at Franklin and tackles him to the ground and prepares to behead him with a knife, and Franklin struggles with the goon. Michael must save Franklin by shooting the goon as fast as possible. After both men clear out all of the Triads, Michael lowers himself to the ground and is shown to be in a large amount of pain with blood on his shirt and holding his side. After the protagonists escape the building they find a [[Coquette]] and a [[Feltzer]] parked outside the factory, however they soon find two triad members on their tail. Using one of them, Franklin and Michael then escape or kill the gangsters and both of them head to Michael's house. After being dropped off, Michael thanks Franklin and heads into his house. Michael washes the blood off himself and changes into a clean suit.

Franklin and Michael fight off another wave of Triads, and Michael saves Franklin from a [[Triad Knife Assassin|Triad with a knife]] that tackles him. After both men clear out all of the Triads, Michael lowers himself to the ground and is shown to be in a large amount of pain with blood on his tank top and holding his side.

After either killing or escaping the pursuing Triads, Michael and Franklin arrive at [[De Santa Residence|Michael's house]]. Michael thanks Franklin for saving him, but the mood turns tense when Franklin demands to know what went down between him and Trevor at North Yankton. Caught off guard, Michael is forced to come clean about [[Prologue|the plan he made]] with [[Dave Norton|Dave]] as a way to get out of his criminal life, in particular his 'psychotic best friend' Trevor, but he tells Franklin not to worry about it as he still has to complete [[Devin Weston|Devin Weston's]] car collection. Franklin, however, drops a pipe bomb on him: He, Trevor, and [[Lamar Davis|Lamar]] had already completed the collection, but Weston [[Pack Man|shafted them out of the payment]]. Confused, Michael assures Franklin that he'll sort it out the next time he shows up at the studio, then heads into his house, where he washes the blood off himself and changes into a clean suit.

*In the slaughterhouse, shooting enemies on some ledges will cause them to fall into meat grinders and, in one case, a vat of acid. Coming into contact with either kills the player instantly.
*Most of the intro cutscene was improvised due to Trevor falling on the fence. During the motion capture, Trevor's voice and motion-capture performer [[Steven Ogg]] tripped on the fence and [[Shawn Fonteno]] (Franklin's voice and motion-capture performer) broke out laughing. Steven Ogg improvised his freak out reaction and the scene was kept in the game as a result, despite the prevalence of broken English ("you're not long for this world") and the smiles on the faces of both Ogg and Fonteno throughout.
 
 
*Even if the Triad aiming an Assault Rifle at Michael is shot in the head, the cutscene of him falling into the processor commences with him still screaming.
* After the intro cutscene while Franklin is talking to Lester, it is possible to get in Franklin's car and kill Trevor as he walks away. This does not affect the mission.
 
 
*During the end chase, if the player takes the [[Coquette]], a surprisingly large amount of [[Dubsta]]s will appear in traffic, blocking the Coquette's way. However, this does not happen if the player takes the [[Feltzer]]. Since this adds more of a challenge to the escape, this may mean the player is meant to escape in the Coquette, with the Feltzer reserved for the enemies.
*On a few occasions in this mission shooting enemies standing on ledges will cause them to fall into a meat grinder and, in one case, a vat of acid. Coming into contact with either kills the player instantly.

*If the man aiming a pistol at Michael is shot in the head, the cutscene of him falling on the grinder commences with him still screaming.
 
*If Michael is attacked by Trevor after he is freed, the hospital bill will come out of Trevor's account despite the fact that him and Michael are no longer on speaking terms.
 
*During the end chase, if you take the [[Coquette]], a suprisingly large amount of [[Dubsta]]s will appear in traffic, blocking you multiple times. However, this does not happen if you take the [[Feltzer]]. Probably, both protagonists must escape in the Coquette and the enemies must chase in the Feltzer.

For the character in Grand Theft Auto Online nicknamed “Freshmeat”, see GTA Online Protagonist.

Michael's world gets turned upside down.
GTA V description at Rockstar Games Social Club
My friend Ron met these Chinese assholes. They're from Yangshan in China. We had some problems. They mistakenly thought Michael was a human being and kidnapped him.
Trevor Philips explaining about Michael De Santa's kidnapping.

Fresh Meat is a mission in Grand Theft Auto V that protagonist Franklin Clinton does independently. Fellow protagonist Michael De Santa is also playable during a later part in the mission, and Trevor Philips appears in the opening cutscene and is seen walking away after it.

Description

Following the conclusion of Pack Man, Franklin contacts Lester Crest about Michael's apparent disappearance. The two deduce that Michael has been abducted, with Lester tracing Michael's cellphone signal back to Los Santos after a brief trip to North Yankton. Lester suggests Franklin meet Trevor for possible information. At Franklin's request, Lester calls Trevor and asks him to meet Franklin at his old safehouse in Strawberry.

Upon arriving at the home, Trevor appears even more disturbed than usual, yelling at Franklin's aunt and taking great offence at Franklin laughing at him after he trips over a low fence. Franklin asks Trevor if he knows what became of Michael in North Yankton; Trevor informs him that they ran into Wei Cheng's men, and he does not know if Michael survived the shootout. Franklin tells him that Michael is back in Los Santos and asks him for help in rescuing him, but Trevor refuses and leaves. assaulting a Families Member in the process.

It is up to Franklin to rescue Michael, alone. While he does not have much to go on, he manages to pinpoint Michael's location by using an app on his phone called Trackify, which Lester provides (the same app used during the offshore option of The Merryweather Heist). As Franklin tries to look for him, the game switches to Michael, who is hanging upside down in a meat-packing plant. Michael tries to tell Wei Cheng that he is not Trevor's ji lao (gay friend), but Wei refuses to believe the truth and turns on the meat processor and leaves when he decides Trevor will not be coming. A timer appears on the screen; if Franklin does not reach Michael within this time limit, he will be moved into the processor and killed.

Unlike standard GTA fares where the GPS would automatically indicate the shortest route to your destination, the player is only given a vague beacon to follow. Upon arrival at the triads' hideout, a meat factory called Raven Slaughterhouse, Franklin can go onto the roof via the back for a shooting position, or come in the front all guns blazing.

After fighting through the Triads, Franklin sees Michael alive, yet strung up by his feet on a meat hook. Franklin kills a Triad member pointing a gun towards Michael and tosses Michael a pistol; the player is now given the option to switch between Franklin and Michael, the latter still upside-down on the hook. Franklin and Michael fight off another wave of Triads, and Michael saves Franklin from a Triad with a knife that tackles him. After both men clear out all of the Triads, Michael lowers himself to the ground and is shown to be in a large amount of pain with blood on his tank top and holding his side. The pair escape outside, where they find a Coquette and a Feltzer which they can use to escape; they also find two Triads on their tail.

After either killing or escaping the pursuing Triads, Michael and Franklin arrive at Michael's house. Michael thanks Franklin for saving him, but the mood turns tense when Franklin demands to know what went down between him and Trevor at North Yankton. Caught off guard, Michael is forced to come clean about the plan he made with Dave as a way to get out of his criminal life, in particular his 'psychotic best friend' Trevor, but he tells Franklin not to worry about it as he still has to complete Devin Weston's car collection. Franklin, however, drops a pipe bomb on him: He, Trevor, and Lamar had already completed the collection, but Weston shafted them out of the payment. Confused, Michael assures Franklin that he'll sort it out the next time he shows up at the studio, then heads into his house, where he washes the blood off himself and changes into a clean suit.

  • During the end chase, if the player takes the Coquette, a surprisingly large amount of Dubstas will appear in traffic, blocking the Coquette's way. However, this does not happen if the player takes the Feltzer. Since this adds more of a challenge to the escape, this may mean the player is meant to escape in the Coquette, with the Feltzer reserved for the enemies.
  • When Michael and Franklin escape the Triads, the radio in the car will be tuned in to The Lowdown 91.1 and the track "Smiling Faces Sometimes" by the Undisputed Truth will always play.
  • During the last cutscene outside Michael's house, Michael's eyes are two different colours, one is green and red/Franklin's brown eyes.
  • If the player doesn't switch to Franklin when Michael is moving towards the grinder, a unique cutscene will play in which Michael will be chopped up by the processor and killed. However, the player is unable to see this.
  • In the enhanced version, the player cannot aim using the first-person camera while playing as Michael upside down.
  • Upon helping Michael, Franklin will always throw a Combat Pistol to him, even if he doesn't have one in his inventory.
  • For some random reason, every time the player approaches the railroad tracks, the gates will always come down meaning a train is coming. This means the player will have to either smash through the gate or wait for the train to pass, costing the player some time to rescue Michael.
  • One of Niko Bellic's grunts (a simple "d'oh!") from Grand Theft Auto IV can be heard from an enemy encountered after the second corner, one who will fall into a vat of acid when killed.
