Hey, I reached that point when Mary casually mentioned that was chatting
with some guy named Dave who had walked on the Moon who considered some
other guy named Neil to have the real Right Stuff.

(fwiw: Scott may have tried to keep out of Armstrong's way as G-8 was
brought under control, but Scott had his own Right Stuff moment during
this anomaly. By restoring the Agena to ground control before undocking,
he made it possible for G-10 to visit this Agena.)
