Sullivan didn’t just spec products from a conference room—he shadowed Jerry on the k.d. lang tour and watched how a monitor engineer manages humans under pressure. That firsthand read on communication, diplomacy, and show-time triage explains why Shure’s approach centered the human loop, not just RF. It also seeds the film’s reconciliation arc: respect born from proximity.
