In "My Last Duchess" by Robert Browning, the situation which brings the duke and the agent together is the duke's intention to remarry.
His wife died (or was killed, we will never know for sure), and he lost a lot of money, which is why he needs to marry into a rich family so as to regain what he lost. This is the reason why he met with the agent, so as to marry his cousin or something.

Calibrated simply means to adjust or mark something in order for it to be used in the exact way. Calibrated means to measure a particular thing in a way that's precise.
Calibrated can also mean to be carefully adjusted or set. The synonyms for calibrated include gauged, measured, scaled, compute, quantify etc.
According to a different source, this question refers to the play "Antigone."
In Antigone, we meet two sisters, Antigone and Ismene. The sisters have recently lost their two brothers. Normally, this would mean that the sisters will mourn them and give them the funeral rites that are traditional in this situation. However, Creon, the king of Thebes, has outlawed this.
The sisters are similar to other archetypal antagonists because they are diametrically opposed to each other. While Antigone believes that the right thing to do is to disregard the law and take care of her brothers, Ismene believes that the law is supreme and should not be trifled with.
