...She wants money. And is a bitch.

I'm more concerned with the whole "not noticing there's still somebody on the plane until the cleaning crew finds him" thing.
Granted, you couldn't really do much by hiding in the bathroom of a plane to scare the cleaning crew, but you'd think someone would notice that the door was locked before the plane left the arrival gate.

I mean what if someone was stuck in there with catastrophically explosive diarrhea and didn't make it out through the whole landing process... Of course then you might just leave him in there since there isn't a seatbelt in the loo and you could guarantee that all that bouncing around during landing, added to the uncontrollable overproduction of feces taking place within, would make for quite a nightmare for any cleaning crew unfortunate enough to be assigned the plane.

I admit it, I laughed while typing this. Mental images will kill you. Good thing there's no drink handy.

I've never seen the cabin crew count people out of the plane. You start moving and they make sure the herd goes in the right direction. I could see how this could happen quite easily.

However, how many lawsuits would be started by passengers complaining that they lost dignity by the crew banging on the door to the toilet while they were in there just checking for missing people?

The woman needs to be thwacked upside the head. It isn't the crew's job to make sure you don't keel over in the toilet and get left behind.
