- That's outrageous! That's borderline extortion! That's a bunch of bullshit! Bullshit! - I know it seems like a lot now... - Yeah, that seems like a lot of money anytime. - And they want one other thing. - What? - San Bernardino. - Uh-uh. No way. - To give to their longtime employees as a gift. - I need the profits from San Bernardino in order to pay off the purchase loan. - I've spoken at length about it with their lawyers. It's unfortunately, non-negotiable. Our client agrees fully with your conditions of sale, with one exception. Your one percent cut of future corporate earnings will have to be carried out on a handshake basis.

- It's my investor group. The financing is contingent on leaving that out of the contract, and unfortunately, this deal just doesn't happen, it doesn't get financed unless you leave that out of the contract. Because unfortunately, that's... that's a deal breaker for them.

- Even you don't know what it is. - Enlighten me. - It's not just the system, Dick. It's the name. That glorious name, McDonald's. It can be anything you want it to be. It's limitless, it's wide open. It sounds... ...it sounds like... it sounds like America. As compared to "Kroc". What a crock. What a load of crock. Would you eat a place named Kroc's? Kroc's has that blunt Slavic sound. Kroc's. But McDonald's, oh boy. That's a beauty. Yeah, a guy named McDonald. He's never going to get pushed around in life. - That's clearly not the case. - So, you don't have a check for $1.35 million dollars in your pocket? Bye, Dick. - So if you can't beat 'em, buy 'em. - I remember the first time I saw that name stretched across your stand out there. It was love at first sight. I knew right then and there, I had to have it.
