In #76, we presented some facts about Dr. Lokken. Here we continue with some of the verbs describing her actions.

Unlike Dimitri, Dr. Lokken’s verbs are a little more animated initially. Yes she says a lot (and points a lot) but she backs away, waves off, slaps the table (or paper on the table), flips a diagram over, shakes her head, nods, stares ... flabbergasted, drums her fingers, takes a deep breath.

Later on she smiles, chuckles, and laughs. In a subsequent beanbag, we’ll look at how these shift over the course of the novel indicating something of a development.

She often pulls papers or files from her purse or bag.

Dr. Browne, Sandra Elias, Dimitri, and Justice Spencer all clear their throats but Lokken is the only one other than Grace who does it multiple times (Grace 4 times and Lokken 3 times).

No need to thank me, Dr. Lokken
