27G is a rookie.
Anyone with experience of Hobo First Class knows that the trick is to move to the middle seat (27E in this case, 27F not existing on these 3-3-3 layouts). This significantly reduces the chances of someone else deciding either of the remaining two seats are better than theirs (or at least, someone on the aisle already, which are the people most likely to move)
