Kelly wanted to ease the tension between Shawn and Zev.

The most dangerous thing about people like him wasn't just their desire to win-it was that they had nothing to lose. They had no boundaries and no reservations. Because, unlike others, Shawn had no one standing behind him. He wasn't afraid of failing. What he feared most was not being able to win.
