Crick was the true genius or at least the best crystallographer in the bunch as it took him only a couple of moments after seeing the image to know the structure.
A little time later, Crick is working in the wet lab, which was very unusual for him.
Asked 'what are you working on?' and he replied with 'wouldn't you like to know' with a smile.
Soon after he determined that proteins and the number of amino acids that were being derived from DNA, which I would argue probably deserved another Nobel Prize.
