Oh no! "The Look"!!!
I have learned to fear "The Look".
Bad things usually happen after I see any woman who has "The Look". Not even a pistol will save a man from "The Look".

One Sunday a couple of years ago, my wife and I were driving home from church, and we stopped at a 7-11 to buy a newspaper. On impulse, I picked up a chocolate eclair and brought it and the newspaper to the register.
The clerk was a black lady, probably in her 60's. She didn't say "Good morning". She didn't ask if there was anything else I needed. When she saw what I had put on the counter, she gave me The Look and demanded, "Is THAT your breakfast?"
I'm 40 years old, but I was almost reduced to babbling. I said, "Uh, no. That's just to tide me over until I get home". Then I had a flash of inspiration and added, "We've been in church." She glared at me a moment more, then said, "Alright then", and rang up the sale. I got out the door as fast as I could move.
