That's exactly my point to Heywyre too. He threw his little temper tantrum about her request last night that was completely disproportionate to what she asked of him....and now he's pretending everything is hunky dory....assuming that she will placate like she has before.
NOW, to get him to really take her seriously she needs to not drop this, but address is calmly and not take his bait when he throws another temper tantrum about it. Now that she's already broached this topic with him, this will be a great thing to bring up in the next MC session as well.
