maybe Palpatine wanted a nice view of the space battle as he waited.
I'm sure he would but either as a pretend or real prisoner it makes no sense that Dooku would entertain such a desire.
Kenobi senses and gleefully desires to spring a trap he believes is formulated by Dooku but it's such a dumb trap that only an idiot would come up with it.
Basically it's to put a few easy as cheese (for Jedi) obstacles in the way between two Jedi and an empty room and then go in there with a few droids and fight them in person.
That's like Field Marshal Montgomery kidnapping Hirohito and hoping Yamamoto would rescue him in person and (finding luck on his side) sneeking up behind him and whacking him in head with a cricket bat just so he could flick the vees at Patton.
I could see Grievous as we see him doing it because he wants to collect Jedi pelts (though that in itself is dumb if he is meant to be a brilliant Separatist tactician).
But Dooku is meant to be either playing to win or playing convincingly at playing to win and he's doing neither.
What this script needed was a rational villain with a plan and an impulsive irrational one driven by revenge.
Why they couldn't have built up Dooku into the anti-Kenobi and Gunray as the anti-Anakin is beyond me.
Gunray would screw up a well laid plan just to get revenge on someone and Dooku could be the cool as a cucumber Force using sword master/leader.
If they wanted they could have even made cyber-Gunray with multiple robot arms to make up for his lack of physical and mystical prowess and sell toys while telling a story that made sense.
