as soon as he started his mindless ad libs on the material he reads, and Anna Caberea said they'd let us know if he had anything important to say!

In my experience that would be because they don't want to show what they think.

I was negotiating at a meeting in Kyoto and I asked for some changes to the machine build that they didn't want to do, I got all these neutral, controlled expressions. Those expressions went away after they gained a consensus among themselves (without me present), and came back with a compromise proposal that worked for all of us.

With 45, I expect those faces to remain the same, since they think he is a moron and he will remain one.
