Control Trajectory

A beat-by-beat chart tracking Daniel Plainview's dominion — his control over resources, people, and territory — across all 40 beats. The line rises steadily through acquisition of Little Boston, dips through the baptism humiliation, rebuilds to peak dominion at "I drink your milkshake," then collapses to pyrrhic victory as Plainview destroys the last person near him.
