Mr. Philips confronts David Roger in his office. Threatening to "engineer an accident," Mr. Philips forces David to marry his daughter, intending to secure the family business's succession through the marriage. He openly expresses extreme distrust in his own daughter's management skills, believing she would squander the family fortune within five minutes. David scoffs at this, using a proverb to mock that his daughter's reckless nature is inherited from Mr. Philips himself. Despite Mr. Philips grabbing David's collar and attempting to pressure him as a mentor and benefactor, David firmly refuses.
