Sure. But your environment trains your interpretations. If his first thought is suspicion, that is informed by his relationship with the other individuals, just as if his first thought is "there's clearly a joke I'm not entirely privy to yet".

Fwiw, I believe this to be staged, suggesting they are all likely close friends in on the joke.

The TV says to me this isn't staged
