Like he's posing for a portrait, instead of a mugshot.

Happy killer.

That's not joy. That's a vacant smile automatically put on for the camera, like his childhood conditioning kicked in.

Which means he isn't even thinking about the life he took. That's worse.

"Robert is a happy child but does not always play well with others."
