Narrative:

When passenger walked across ramp, I saw he was smoking, which I thought was strange and told the captain. During the flight, the #2 flight attendant asked me to keep an eye on a passenger because the #2 flight attendant thought the passenger was drinking from his own bottle, in a cooler between his wife and the passenger. The passenger called me over and told me to keep #2 flight attendant away from him because, 'the flight attendant insulted me, was disrespectful and I'm going to slap him!' I told captain, and flight was met. I told passenger the flight was being met so he 'could tell them his complaint.
