finally, he shakes his head with a sadly disapproving look and talks to someone offscreen.]

[his attention is still offscreen. beat. and then he smiles, a little.]
Thank you. I'm sorry. This is still interesting.
[now he looks at the 'Gear properly, expression cleared and voice somewhat louder and lighter.]
