[After a particular incident which may or may not have involved projectile retching, Murphy breaks his awkward radio silence over the network to come before you people for some worldly advice:]

"Don't... suppose anyone would have any suggestions on how to get ink stains outta your clothes, would ya? I'm, uh... talkin' about lots of it, like...

"Shit, how do I do this...?"

[Eventually, Murphy figures out how to switch the video feed on. What you actually see is a set of black shirt and jeans.

[...Actually, they weren't always black, judging by the specks of the original red and blue colors that are still miraculously visible. Murphy himself is still slightly marked in ink, but he isn't about to showcase that at the moment.]

"Guess askin' for dry cleaners in this damn place would be a bit much to ask for..."

Maybe one of the scientists or chemists has managed to make something similar. It doesn't seem that out of the question. [ it might not be a priority but for a price or a favor, she imagines out of all the people that have been abducted.. one of them has to know. ]

Considering all the stuff I've seen in the science department... Yeah, can't imagine why there wouldn't be somethin' like that lyin' around here. I mean, there's gotta be some kinda resources that the old crew used. Not like they wore one uniform that stayed clean all of the time, right...?

[It's just a matter of Murphy having not found any yet.]
resurgent: (focus ➤ if they find us - we're dead)

I don't know if ships are like cars but if anyone worked in the engine room, it had to come up more often than not. Unless they wore their grease stains or whatever proudly. I have a hard time believing most of the girls in the old crew would be okay with that all the time.

How'd you stain your clothes, anyway?
yardbird: I'm already being called "Officer's Pet". (please sir stop saying stuff like that)

Well, I used to work on cars, but even if I didn't... I'd be able to tell you just by lookin' at the machinery there that it's not a very tidy job, so... yeah.

[He falters at her question then. Never mind that there's also some ink stains he's failed to wash out of his face -- not that Murphy hadn't spent much time checking out a mirror to make sure that he's completely clean of that, either. But still.]

...It was an accident, nothin' major. [If getting vomited on can be considered as such. Sure.]
