"We're done," Rick announced. Steve put his report aside and joined them at the table. The boys waited expectantly while the agent scanned the sheet. "You've done a good job of collecting information," Steve said. "Now it needs breaking down some more. The mixture in the 'color' column bothers me. I have a hunch those colors may be related to the position of the sun. Look."
Perhaps it was only the wind playing pranks upon her overwrought nerves, or the hooting of an owl. She waited expectantly and a few seconds later, hearing the old hound's glad bark as she bounded over the wall between the pasture and the mowing, knew that John had sent her with a message for the mistress of Clover-hill Farm.
As he swallowed the soup his heart warmed to this fool of a girl. "Oh, it's a good thing Doctor Erb has come," volunteered the servant girl, who was bursting for want of sympathy. "H'm, h'm," said Andreas. She waited a moment, expectantly, rolling her eyes, then in full loathing of menkind went back to the kitchen and vowed herself to sterility.
The clock, after a hoarse wheezing warning, struck seven. The dog opened one eye and looked up at it. A few minutes later, the peace of the place was broken in a different fashion.

The door which led into the apartment was thrown open and hastily slammed to.
A man stood in the center of it waving his hat a stocky fellow in soiled trousers and an old gray sweater. Shouts of welcome hailed him as the dray rolled on; most of them came from the opposite or southern side. "It's Dennis Kearney," said a man near Robert. "He and his gang were released from custody today.... Now we'll have more trouble." Robert followed the dray expectantly.
"Now, if you perhaps mean that these 'airplanes, as you call them, are somehow flung into the air for a short distance and then fall to the ground, well, then perhaps that would be possible." The professor looked expectantly and a bit condescendingly at the traveler, hoping that the man would take this face-saving opportunity. "No, no. You don't understand," said the traveler.
"Pascherette, thy fault was great," he answered, yet in his face was a look so forgiving, so excusing, that the girl shivered expectantly and closed her eyes with a happy sigh. Yet the kiss was not given. From the great chamber the angry voice of Dolores rang out. "Milo! Where art thou, slave!" And the giant tenderly laid Pascherette down again, and ran in answer. "Sultana?" "Blind, idle dolt!
"No, what?" asked the ladies, expectantly. "Couple of wil' turkeys! Dey was roostin' near his trap, and Mike ain't never had a catch in it this year, so he was feelin' like a mighty poor kind of a trapper, when dese turkeys lit on a line wid his eye. It was some job to cotch bote on em, 'cause one allus flies away soon's a sound is hearn. But, Mike he jest says to hisself, 'By gum!
The interest of the morrow was no longer at a deadlock. "There is really no reason on earth why you should be so alarmed at the man's waiting a few minutes, mamma," said Gwendolen, remonstrantly, as Mrs. Davilow, having prepared the writing materials, looked toward her expectantly. "Servants expect nothing else than to wait. It is not to be supposed that I must write on the instant."
Cora's heart beat expectantly. She had hoped, ever since the day of the eventful ride, that Mary might be able to furnish some clue to the missing money. She was such an observing girl. Cora began to read the letter.
