His eyes had never left Crane, but as his analysis came to a close and he rested his hands on his thighs once more, he began to really look at the doctor.

If this had been a mission briefing in the army, this meeting would have already offered up useful information instead of nonsense about bat men and vague insinuations. He didn't mention it, however, intent on using the time to analyze Crane more.
