The gist of it is that he had a bag in the overhead that he asked not to be moved because of he a computer in it. He then says how all the "commander" did was make that finger motion and say here while not even properly addressing him. They then say he's off the flight.

Surely there's more to it than just this though...I'm unsure how you'd be thrown off a plane for asking that they not move your bag.
