Part 3, Chapter 7
- Dominique returns from Reno, and Wynand puts her up in a hotel until their wedding.
- He wants a private one, but she insists on a huge public ceremony that is as vulgar as possible.
- Dominique actually wears black (scandalous!), and the thing is a media circus.
- It sounds hilarious.
- But Wynand gets the last laugh because he bans The Banner from covering his wedding.
- Scarrett can't believe it, since it is news, but Wynand stands firm.
- Dominique is impressed with Wynand's power-play skills.
- Toohey and Scarrett discuss the fall-out from the wedding.
- Thousands of letters have come in denouncing the marriage.
- Scarrett is also worried that New Frontiers, a liberal magazine Toohey also freelances for, is seriously targeting Wynand.
- Toohey says he's being paranoid.
