If x interchanges the new point and α, put H=Gα​. Then ⟨G,x⟩ is a one-point extension exactly when x2∈H, xHx−1=H, and xgx∈GxG for every g∈/H. These conditions make G∪GxG multiplication-closed, hence a group in the finite setting, with new-point stabilizer G. Necessity comes from the two double cosets in the extended two-transitive action.
