Guys shuts his trap and the three of them take their seats about halfway back.
Flight attendants spoke for a moment to see who was going to go back and gauge his temperament before the door closed. One went back briefly, came back up, mentioned something to the rest of the crew. Then heard something about "don't want him to act up when we are in the air". ...
If that's all he said then the crew overreacted big time. And what was the point of going back to provoke him even more - give him 10 minutes to calm down. The fact that he shut up without confronting the captain at all to me says that the guy was capable of sufficiently controlling himself.
