By demanding the crew decs at an inappropriate time, when he new the cabin crew would be busy with service he managed to provoke the reaction he wanted and made the best of the FA's tardy response to press home his advantage, calling her to the cockpit for a little chat
Like this guy didn't just have a couple of other things to do. He was flying a commercial airliner for goodness sake!

If he wanted to provoke a confrontation, why didn't he just do it at a crew layover or stop?

Do you think he was stupid enough to risk his career by going to these kinds of lengths in mid air?

You don't make it to senior airline Captain by being the kind of kook you are trying to make this guy out to be!
