- Just take a gander at this handsome gold inlay. You're telling me such spectacular craftsmanship isn't worth $8.95? - But I'm not interested. - You're not interested in a Bible sure to be the pride of your family's home library? As you no doubt know, June, envy is one of the seven deadly sins. And that is what your friends and neighbors will be guilty of when they see this leather-bound beauty on your bookshelf. - Sir, this is a private place of business. I'm afraid I'm going to have to ask you to leave. Thank you for your time.

- Hey! Look at this. What is this? Huh? What is that? - It appears to be a hamburger. - Not a McDonald's burger it's not. Look at all that ketchup. You've got three pickles on there instead of two. Look at that. Look at that, lettuce. Really, Jack? Lettuce? - Can we talk about this another time? - Look at the patty itself, that is tragically overcooked. Tragically! - I don't know, Ray, it looks good to me. - What the hell do you know about quality? I was by your restaurant today too. - Yeah, what about it? - What about it? You got corn on the cob, you got fried chicken! - People love fried chicken. - Do they? Let them go somewhere where they serve fried chicken. And your kitchen is filthy! What the hell is the matter with you guys? - I don't know about you, Ray, but I'm retired. - You said this would be a good place for us to park our money. - No, no. - It's an investment! - If I wanted a job, I would have applied for a cook position. - You couldn't get a job as a cook in one of my restaurants. - Hey! - What's his problem? - He's a pain in the ass is what he is. Right back at ya, Ray. - Ethel? - In here. - Hi. - Ray, hurry and get changed. Dinner is called for seven. - Yeah, we're not going to the club tonight. - You canceled our dinner? - I canceled our membership. - What? - Those Roland Green people, they're not really our kind. - What are you talking about? - I've lost interest hobnobbing with the idle rich. - The idle rich? - Yeah, you know their golf, their Rob Roys. They're so complacent and content. - Ray. Please tell me you're joking. These are our friends. - No, I know. I know. You know what? You and I can make a lot of new friends. It's all right, we'll make new friends. Friends that are more suitable, for us. You know? Don't you think? You know what? Give me one second. The garage is driving me crazy. Can I just go sweep it up and clean it up? And then put a nice dress on, I'll take you out for something to eat.

St. Paul. - Got one in Dayton, Ohio. - That's right. - You must be positively dizzy, Mr. Kroc. - Please, call me Ray. - Ray... - That's some growth. - Yeah. We're doing good, right Fred? - Yes, sir. - Yeah, we're doing good. - When did you start it?

- Jimmy, great to see ya. - Rollie, how are ya. - Oh, wonderful. - Rollie Smith, Ray Kroc. - Hey. - Real pleasure. - Boy, I tell ya, you got one helluva restaurant here. - Well, coming from you that's quite a compliment. - My reputation precedes me. - I'm a great admirer. - Well umm... sit down. - I don't want to interrupt. - Have a seat. - Well, maybe just a minute. - This is Fred Turner my associate. - Welcome. - Steaks cooked, okay? - Excellent. Perfect. - Our intention is to ahh... expand pretty far beyond the Midwest. We're not going to settle here. We're not gonna... We're going to expand far beyond the Midwest. - You've clearly got a warm and loving home here in Minneapolis. - Yeah, so it seems. - Yeah, this town just can't get enough of McDonald's. - Here you go, sir. - Another Canadian Club for my friend. - Yes, sir. Coming right up. Thank you. In fact, I'd say there's sufficient enthusiasm to support another. A second location? - You know, come to think of it, I know the perfect person to own and operate. - You don't say? - Somebody who knows what it takes to build a great restaurant. Someone with more than 20 years experience in the food service industry. - Who? - Me. - You! Oh! That's a shock. - He's funny. I've got the know-how, I've got the backers and I've got the perfect location. Are you familiar with Hennepin Avenue? That's one of the busiest commercial arteries in the whole Twin-Cities. There's a prime site that's recently become available. Full acre on the corner of Hennepin and... - Mr. Kroc? - Yeah?
