- He grows a "'tache" would be my guess.
-
- The thing that bothers me is he was wearing a yachting outfit. Now I admit he
- has changed his uniform every season since the second, but I don't think even

- ranking individual in the space corps, so whatever he says is official) to a
- yachting outfit.
