To outsiders, his lack of movement and his abrupt taciturn behavior woud probably suggest Basil was content to remain silent, enjoy the atmosphere, and let his mate see if he could seal the deal with an attractive young woman.
In reality, Basil was keeping his eye on the man upstairs, him being the one that concerned him the most. Partially, because he stood out the most from the rest of them and partially because he was the only one that showed even a passive interest in what his friend was doing.
He'd seen these things go down bad before. One false move, and someone daddy hired was breaking a boy's arm. He certainly didn't want that happening to his friend.
