What's it called when someone like a prominent leader hosts the protagonist, but said leader has a friend or son or butler who does not take kindly to the protagonist, making rude or passive-aggressive gestures. Such behavior will not go unnoticed by the host, and if it gets bad enough they might blurt out something like, "You have insulted our guest! Apologize at once!" The offending individual may or may not begrudgingly apologize or excuse themselves from the social gathering.
