Dad, I warned you that you shouldn't go and tell the producer that our equipment was utterly wrong...

Be sure not to bury this leather segmentata, son, we want to confuse the archeologists in the future millenia. And throw away that list of military tunic colors!

"Son, I... have something to... tell you. Come closer."

He leans in.

"Yes, Dad, what is it?"

"No, come closer."

He leans in more.

"What is it, Dad?"

Dad HEADBUTT's him.

"That's for making me wear leather armour!".
