If someone hands you something from an FBI data base, celebration and trading is not the way to handle it. LOL.. I think the fact that there was "celebration and trading" strongly suggests that Tony genuinely believed that it was okay for Royer to give him the information in question. As is typical, jurors ideally come in with a blank slate and are taught what is important by the lawyers and, of course, by the judge, who tells them what the law of the case is. I think it's a shame jurors can't ask questions of witnesses. There are a few courts in the country where they can, but the practice isn't widespread, probably because it could add considerably to the length of trials. Worse, though, is that jurors can't ask the judge to expand on his instructions. What do you do if you genuinely don't understand the point he's trying to make?
