Kavanaugh: What's the deal with the contorted/twisted face and sniffing loudly?
Allergies? Cocaine? Nervous twitch? Withdrawals? Alcohol?

Her unspoken body language said:
"Is it okay for me to talk now?"
"With your permission, I'll answer the question addressed directly to me."
"Maybe you should answer this, I know you'll get angry if I screw it up."
"You know best, dear."
