He ended up logging over 25 hours of "internet surfing (watching videos) and projects he did for other Buyers" and I had to pay for it. The screen shots odesk provided also showed that he was watching tv, gaming and talking to other providers: *removed by admin* I can attach all the screens that odesk took in that 25 hour period and none of which was related to my project.
