Parley is only for pirates. The Code doesn't apply to those not under the thumb of the Brethren Court.

[up]The Pirates of the Caribbean movies had running gags about pirates following self-selected rules of conduct like requesting "parley".

Don't worry Annie, Parley and Smitty won't be breaking in.

Also, Coyote isn't happy about this, which may mean he actually cares about Annie is some tiny way (even if it is a Hypocritical Heartwarming way).

"Some are saying" what Ysengrin thinks? What, he's spoken to Coyote but not the guy that can't hardly ever be seen apart from Coyote?

Also, if Coyote were truly upset he'd have done something about it. No one can actually stop him. Probably just a token protest to keep the fun coming.

Well, what's he going to do? He doesn't really have jurisdiction in the Court.

Ysengrin is a private guy, I wouldn't be surprised if he keeps his thoughts to himself.

Indicates that Smitty himself hasn't met with Isengrin, so that one might be just a rumour.

Okay my theory is busted. If Kat was planting herself as "evidence" to frame him, she wouldn't have told her friends.

This is an exploratory mission, not an incriminating one.

Eagal: Coyote doesn't lie or break his word. Him doing something directly to help Annie was never really on the table.

That said, yeah, I don't see why this has to be a Pet the Dog moment for him either. He's clearly planning something and Annie was a valuable tool towards that goal.

I wouldn't mistake compassion for boredom.

Annie isn't doing anything Coyote finds amusing when she's living a dull white room studying.

So Annie hasn't just lost her spunk with regards to her father.
