I'm here to see Rod McCain.
Willa Weston.
I'm not gettin' an answer.
You'll have to wait, ma'am.
I'm starting work here today,
and I can't be late.
Can I help?
I don't think so.
Could you try Mr. McCain's assistant
again, please?
I already did, ma'am.
You sure I can't help?
Am I not on the list?
Don't worry, Bill. I'll take her up.
She's from the White House.
Whatever you say, Mr. McCain.
Vince McCain. I'm the son.
This way. You are?
Willa Weston.
I'm here to manage WOCT networks.
And you are vice president
of marketing.
Yes, but mostly I just
wait for my father to die.
What was that thing
about the White House?
I was just changing
his perception of the situation.
First law of marketing.
So, what would you like to know about
the most powerful man alive?
Around here, he's known
as '' Rod Almighty.''
Wait right here.
He called me.
I'll be right out.
He called me.
Hi, Neville. How's it going?
Rod's busy.
Yes. Yes.
Oh, yeah! Oh, God.
Oh, God. Oh, yes!
I did it. I did the deal.
One-four-five?
One-three-bloody-eight. Hit me.
You bloody beauty!
Way to go, Dad! We did it again!
- Oh, it's you.
- Dad, can I introduce--
I don't have time.
I'm late for the finance meeting.
- But, Dad--
- Shut up.
- What do we do about Detroit?
- Close it.
It's done.
Call me Rod.
- Welcome aboard.
- Thanks.
- Dad, I'd like to introduce--
-Just signed a beautiful deal.
Alliance Leisure, U.K.
The sweetest part is...
I snatched it from under the nose
of that bastard Murdoch.
- What are the crown jewels?
- Northeast Television...
There's a film distribution company,
1 4 multiplexes, some bingo halls--
- Three ice rinks, a crematorium--
- Nice little owner, that, and a zoo.
- A zoo?
- Yep.
Gotta go, Willa. Finance meeting.
Back, Neville. So, make a lot
of money for me at--
- WOCT.
- Sorry.
- What?
- Sold it this morning.
Don't worry.
We'll find something for ya.
Talk to you later.
- That's it?
- That's Dad.
- You mean I don't have a job?
- Look, Willa--
- I just gave up a vice presidency.
- No worries, Willa.
We've got lots of jobs.
We're always expanding.
Neville, check our liability
on the Detroit pension rights.
- Righto.
- Vince, go away.
- Where are my grapes?
- I'm sorry, Mr. McCain.
I wanted grapes!
It was a natural mistake.
I wanted grapes. Get the fruit.
- What's going on at that zoo?
- What zoo?
The one you just acquired
in Britain.
We put in a guy from Octopus TV,
Hong Kong.
Hard-nosed little Chinese bastard
called Lee.
He used to bein the Hong Kong police.
Speaks good English, but--
- Big cats over there, right?
- Yes.
- That's right.
- Good.
Mammals.
Have you any background in animals?
Well, I've eaten a lot, you know.
Sorry.Joke.
Good evening.
Now, for those of you who have
not met me yet, my name is Rollo Lee...
and as of yesterday morning,
I have assumed command of this zoo...
and I shall be reporting to our new
owners, Octopus, Inc., of Atlanta.
Now, Octopus, of course,
is owned by Mr. Rod McCain, who...
as I'm sure you were aware,
is a remarkable man.
Starting with his father's
radio stations in New Zealand...
he has built up a global empire...
currently worth more than
six billion dollars...
and growing.
How much does he want in the end?
Yeah.
- What ?
- How much bigger does he wanna get?
Well, there aren't any limits.
He wants growth.
Presumably, he's aware
of Dr. E.F. Schumacher's...
concept of limited resources or,
as Jean-Paul Sartre puts it--
