Tangent to passing a runner topic.

from the other topic:
"R1 on third decides to go toward home but then retreats to 3rd.
But pitcher picks up ball and looks toward 2nd. R1 then takes off for home, stops, retreats back to third but finally goes all the way home
. "

is there a Look Back Rule issue there?
Was the pitcher in the circle when she picked up the ball?
Does "looks toward 2nd" count as a play or fake play, before the throw?
