Returning to speech animation after animating inside a dialog

[newwaveburritos]

Code: ags

cBartender.LockViewFrame(40,1,0);
  Wait(60);
  cBartender.UnlockView();
  cBartender.LockView(38);

I want the bartender here to make a frowny face when asked a particular question.  He'll frown all right but he won't return to his regular speech view even after I unlock the view in the dialog.  I've tried locking to his speech view (38) afterward as well but it doesn't seem to work even after I end the dialog and begin a new one.  He'll just keep on frowning forever yet his dialog will play.  I tried it as a one frame animation (well, technically two identical frames) with the same result.  I'm not sure what it is I'm missing here.  Thanks for your attention.

I've fooled around with it a bit more and noticed if he hit his idle animation it would snap him out of it so to speak.  So, if I add his idle animation after the frowning frame it works more or less as I want it to but he won't animate the idle animation here but it will switch him back to the regular dialog.  I'm still not sure why it's doing this.

Code: ags

  cBartender.LockViewFrame(40, 0, 0, eKeepMoving); //frowning frame
  Wait(50);
  cBartender.UnlockView();
  cBartender.LockView(39); //idle view
  cBartender.Animate(0, 5, eOnce, eNoBlock, eForwards);
  cBartender.UnlockView();
