d. he wants to make it clear how wrong lindner was.

Explanation:

In the context of the play, Walter initially has financial struggles and a complex relationship with the idea of moving to Clybourne Park. When he says he's "going to put on a show" for Mr. Lindner, it refers to his intention to engage in a deal - related interaction. Mr. Lindner represents the Clybourne Park Improvement Association which tries to prevent the Younger family (Walter's family) from moving in by offering money. Walter's statement implies he will negotiate or make a deal with Lindner.

Answer:

B. He's going to make a deal with Lindner.
