Knowing look

Do you remember Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade

She had become disenchanted with the Nazi philosophy. She had feelings for Indiana Jones and for his father (who was dying in the other room waiting for the cup to be retrieved). After all she gave Indiana Jones what could be described as a knowing look.
Except, may she didn't. Read more here.
