*Even though the Brock people have mouths, they don't seem to have any facial expressions, even if they are panicked. They only express their emotions when they jump when the player interacts with them, or shake if scared. The only expression they make with their eyes is when [[Bowser]] and [[Antasma]] use the [[Dreambeats]] to put them to sleep.
