A sign, perhaps, of how little threat Louis feels the Talamasca to be. Humans, knowledgeable and nosy, but all the same, human. What is the worst that can truly happen? Their attempt at subterfuge is blown, and they leave anyway with what Daniel wishes to take?
Besides, he likes watching Daniel approach the door this way. Likes the bluntness of his entrance, likes the panic he inspires.
The door swings open and Louis smiles into the room, all shark-sharp charm and gleaming teeth.
"Do you know who we are?"
They must. And maybe no one is afraid of Daniel just yet, but Louis has a decades-long dossier and it is uniformly unflattering. Why not trade on this, just a little?
