Hij was zongebruind, ongeschoren en relaxed uit de eerste klas gestapt na een maand op het strand van Cabo (duiken en Franse meisjes versieren). Toen hij een maand geleden de stad verlaten had, was hij een afgepeigerd wrak met een buikje. Nu was hij een bruingebrande god en hadden de stewardessen de hele reis naar hem gelonkt.
