No, that's an acronym. Beeber is referring to the executives who would have to retire or move to other jobs to allow him to advance. And he believes he does have the chance to move up. For one thing, he has worked on the drug Clarity, which helps elderly people with their mental abilities.Beeber takes Sarah Jane out to dinner and then invites her to his place.
