I have only seen each episode once, but I seem to recall that the Bookhouse
Boys' sign is made by passing the tip of the index finger along the temple
from top to bottom; the side on which the sign is made (right or left) does
not matter.  If I remember correctly, during the scene where Harry reveals
the Bookhouse Boys to Cooper, this sign is made on both sides by different
members of the group, seemingly at random.

The meaning I attribute to this secret sign of the dream Laura's is a bit
different.
