Actually, they never explore Zaphod's intentions in the books. It was his "old self" who locked off portions of each brain. He has no idea why he is doing anything.
Become president, steal Heart of Gold, find Magrathea, Hold Seance (to speak w/ his Grandfather), find Zarniwoop (After Grandfather randomly transports him to the guide offices). All these ideas come to him from his "locked out" portion of the brains. He is just wrapped up in his own fate, w/o knowing why. After they find Zarniwoop, they go off and find the man who rules the universe, Zaphod and Trillian slip back into the Heart of Gold, leaving Zarniwoop behind. In the original books, I have no memory of a Vice President, either. At 05:00 PM 5/1/2005, you wrote: > > B) Zaphod was trying to meet the man who ruled the world, > > not find the ultimate question.
