Anyone else... disappointed? [PT/BG spoilers]

But I agree Harry should have been present for his “trial”. I cannot believe Lucco didn’t speak out for Dresden and Ramerize’s flip to “enemy” is weird.
I still find the Butters “wish fulfillment” sceen in PT eye roll worthy, at best.

It's either a full Council vote, or a Senior Council vote.
If it's a Senior Council vote, these are the members:
Martha Liberty
Joseph Listens-to-Wind
Ebenezer McCoy
Grigori Christos
Arthur Langtry
Ancient Mai
Rashid "I am the Gatekeeper" Gatekeeper
Rashid would have been at the Outer Gates.
Ebenezer and LtW were in surgery.
4 members is a majority, so they probably had a quorum to hold votes.
If the votes are unchanged, this is:
Martha Liberty: Against
Christos, Mai, Langtry: For
And Harry's out.
Mira:
But can Cristos be against Harry after Chicago? Weird don't you think? And why were no members at the meeting of the Accords in the aftermath? Would the Merlin be against Harry? In Changes he seemed to have changed his tune...
BrainFireBob:
Cristos is still suspect as a black hat.
And the Merlin is a control freak, and Harry's a loose cannon who must have pocketed the Eye of Balor
I think ultimately it's a pressure play about the Eye; but politically it worked because three of Harry's four supporters weren't available.

In the end I think Mab is right, Harry is a wolf that the White Council needs.

The Merlin holds the proxies of those not there who haven't delegated them. If Eb's camp had delegated them, it would have been to the Gatekeeper because Eb's camp wasn't going to be there.

Based on what Jim said about no one being what they seemed, I wouldn't be completely surprised if the Merlin shows up to Harry, acknowledges that he knows about the Grey Council and has from the beginning and gives him a speech about how the White Council can only be saved from the outside.

Because they didn't want them there. The White Council no longer has a direct interest Chicago and it was about handling the fact that everyone left in Chicago was going to know about the supernatural. They were planning the next war. The one against mortals. As little as the White Council does for humanity, that would have been a step too far.
