They call me Mr Molapo.

Saul Goodman once convinced a woman he was Kevin Costner because he believed it. The protagonist of this KFC ad convinces staff that he's Mr Molapo, the best damn quality assurance inspector in town.

Armed with a badge, a clipboard, a wig, and a fake moustache, he enjoys more free meals than he's had, erm, hot dinners. He practices his introduction in the mirror like any con artist worth their salt.

His dining spree is both brazen and entertaining, but all good things must come to an end. When it does, in a hefty stroke of bad luck, 'Molapo' plumps for take away over sit-in.

The brand claim this two-and-a-half-minute caper is based on a true story, though KFC have also denied any such incidents have occurred in the past. Whatever the case, director Greg Gray does a super job with the premise.
