He leaves six-year-old Ellie stranded in the rain, then diverts her last dose of fever reducer to Mia while insisting Nora fabricated the 104-degree temperature. The cruelty escalates when Nora discovers glass shards concealed inside Ellie's ballet shoe, realizing Graham planted them to secure Mia's victory.
