Eustace switch question
I don't understand why Richard, Aliena's brother, did as Waleran suggested and switched Eustace for another boy at the exchange of Stephen and Robert og Gloucester. Richard is only pretending to be on Stephen's side, isn't he? Stephen killed his father and so Richard is only fighting on that side to regain his earldom, and he's secretly rooting for Maud. So when Stephen is finally captured and everything seems good, why does he switch Eustace? I haven't read the book but I was puzzled by this in the show. Help?
