Part 4, Chapter 9

Roark's designs are great, of course.
He and Dominique and Wynand hang out together on weekends, and Dominique still feels jealous of his close relationship with Wynand.
Toohey tells Keating he's a genius, even though he knows Keating didn't do the work.
Wynand finds out that Roark actually designed the Cortlandt House and is furious with Roark for doing it. Roark doesn't care, though.
Wynand decides to use The Banner to support Roark and his work, but everyone in the city hates and ignores The Banner now, so it doesn't have the desired effect.
Wynand takes Roark's to Hell's Kitchen and confides his plans for a skyscraper to him; Roark is enthused about it and hopes to build it one day.
