What "look" would you give someone who you think is being ridiculous?

If someone was adamant that all dogs were actually people wearing costumes you could say

"I gave them a look of _______"

kind of like "I gave them a look of concern" or "I gave them a look of admiration" only I need the word to mean that I think they are being ridiculous and paranoid.

Thanks.

Update:

For clarification, I am writing a story and line is "She looked at me with a look that I couldn’t discern. It seemed to be mix of ______ and trepidation."

    Sidelong, head tilted toward them a bit, eyebrows raised - a look of skepticism or doubt.
