"If you take off at all, you'll take off in a suit, inside a one-man flitter," the Lensman interrupted.

If the Lensman was surprised at Cloud's sudden reappearance in the laboratory he did not show it.

The Lensman and the observer helped him into his cumbersome, heavily-padded armor.

Significant enough to the initiated of the importance of this laboratory is the fact that it was headed by an Unattached Lensman.

"QX, and thanks," and a nurse led the visiting Lensman to Cloud's bedside.
