Sadness Indicators: Walz's sadness is evident through the upturned tips of his eyebrows above the bridge of his nose. Fear Indicators: He displays fear through wide eyes, rapid movements, and a panicked look. This is particularly evident when he looks to the moderators for help. "Deer in the Headlights" Look: The combination of sadness and fear results in a noticeable "deer in the headlights" look, highlighting his struggle under pressure.
