Kelvin gets a call: Sharkfin Group will join a scheme to push Whitney out, but they insist Whitney must arrange a sample exhibition as a condition. The caller reveals Mr. Humphrey, a close friend of Whitney’s father, will influence the board and push to nominate him as chairman. Later Kelvin arrives home; his wife serves dinner and asks him to take charge of that exhibition. He agrees. The key turn is clear—Kelvin now holds official control of the exhibition the board demanded, turning a household favor into the pivotal test that leaves Whitney’s position hanging.
