'Good friends'

In 'The Swarm', there's some homoerotic feelings between Brad Crane and Dr. Krim. The liner notes to the CD soundtrack claim Crane and Krim are "good friends". Baker has a smug expression on his face when he comments to Krim, "Crane did seem nervous." When a personal relationship blooms between Crane and Dr. Helena Anderson, Baker lectures her about it.

I dunno...what do you guys think?

I think you are reading way, way too much into the film. The film has about as much depth as a wading pool, certainly not deep enough to focus on anything but the most superficial of relationships.
