Lamont gives an amused glance back at Holmes, finding his actions almost quaint but he can relate to using a similar spyglass for many of his own investigations when a microscope is overpowered for the task.
"Actually, I'm a good friend of Commissioner Weston. I have an outstanding invitation to the police force to bring evidence to my research laboratories when they find particularly vexing cases." He pauses as the panel creaks and gives a brief chuckle at his statement.
"Had." With a deft reassessment of the panel, he taps a corner of it gently, and then pulls on it again, and it pops open with ease. Taking a knee, and clearly not caring about the fact that his expensive suit will get dirty, he starts to look around inside of the system. There's an almost boyish glee to his smile as he starts to take it in at close range. The technology is incredible. And small.
"I hope I'm not disturbing your investigations, Mr. Watson." When in Rome. If Holmes is addressing the automaton as a living being, he will extend the same courtesy. He doesn't know if his poking about will affect whatever the robot is doing.
From somewhere deep within the system, there's a faint glow. Lamont peers closely to the panel he's opened and then satisfied that he doesn't see any obvious electrical terminals on which to shock himself, he slides into the control cabinet, right up to his waist.
