Having completed his homework (or did he...), Ulysses grabbed a chair (http://cdn.buynowsignal.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/17/1-beach-chair-with-canopy.jpg), threw on his sunglasses, and went outside to watch what was going on with Azurcrest. After plopping his chair down on the ground, he briefly went inside to grab a drink, but then he was back to watch the activities. He then proceeded to do some lighthearted heckling with another NPC Ebonhide who had the plot slot with him.
