I wonder if the FO went off the reservation or if that was the tone from both pilots.
perhaps the CA wanted the number to apologize for an over zealous FO. I will give benefit of doubt that was the reason requesting a number.

I kinda wondered the same. On more than one occasion I've heard something on the radio, usually ramp or ground where I knew it was the FO, and was certain the captain had to be resisting the urge to backhand the dude sitting to his right.
