IShallRiseAgain posted:This is a fundamental misunderstanding of Oberstein's character. Oberstein is actually really good at interacting with people and getting them to do what he wants them to do. Oberstein doesn't want to be liked and sees himself as a necessary evil. Maintaining friendships would just hinder him from completing his objectives. He's by far my favourite character from LOGH, because of his complexity, but there's no question that in that particular scene what he did was ultra-autistic and it was utterly unnecessary to interrupt the ceremony like that. There was no practical reason not to delay passing on the information for a couple of minutes (and he had completely withheld other important information before this event), interrupting the ceremony was not part of one of his schemes, and there was no value to making a scene or drawing attention to himself, so he must have done it out of a lack of social awareness.

It's the "no qualms about upsetting other people" which was the problem in this scene. Heinessen was literally halfway across the inhabited part of the galaxy from the wedding and takes weeks to travel to, and, depending how broken the continuity is on the episode in question, takes hours, days or weeks to communicate with; not delaying his message until Reinhart gets in his limo a couple of minutes later is the mark of autism and will have no effect on the outcome of the riots which are already being dealt with by troops and police on Heinessen.
