Plot: 1954. Having worked as a salesman most of his adult life,
Ray Kroc has been a hustler in most senses of the word. That
hustling has made him the target of derision among certain
circles for peddling what have ended up being more novelty
or faddish than useful products, but it has also placed more
than a comfortable roof in Arlington Heights, Illinois over
his and his wife Ethel's heads. Ethel, however, wishes that
he placed as much effort into being at home with her than he
is in selling, his current job of peddling five-spindle
milkshake makers for Prince Castle which has him constantly
on the road going from one drive-in restaurant to another.
It is because of the beefs he has with the whole drive-in
experience (bad food, bad service) in constantly eating at
such establishments while on the road that he becomes
enthralled with the concept of McDonald's Restaurant in San
Bernardino, California, it owned and operated by brothers
Richard McDonald and Maurice McDonald - Dick and Mac. Unlike
most of Ray's customers who will only require one
five-spindle milkshake maker at any given time, the McDonald
brothers end up purchasing eight machines for their single
restaurant. Primarily on Dick's initiative, the brothers
have redesigned the whole concept of the drive-in restaurant
to focus on quality food through a smaller menu of only the
most popular items (hamburgers, fries, sodas), consistency
in product so that customers know what to expect from time
to time, change in the target market from lounging teenagers
to families, and perhaps most importantly speed in having
any order ready within seconds, many of these goals
achievable through assembly line styled production. They had
tried franchising previously, but failed in that they lost
control over many of those aspects which made their San
Bernardino restaurant successful. Despite believing Ray a
bit off kilter (in other words, crazy), the McDonald
brothers somewhat hesitantly enter into a contract with him
to be their head of franchising. Ray's experience in the job
is not without its problems, especially as his franchisees
seem to be making more money than he is, he who is only
breaking even. He is not averse to advancing ideas provided
to him to get ahead - original ideas which are not his forte
- he seeing the brothers as his biggest problem in they
thinking small. These differences lead to a standoff between
Ray and the brothers, the former who has a different goal
for "his" business in profit and stoking his own ego
seemingly his main priorities.
