Can he skate? Of course he can skate.

Episode Recap: 


So Xander is doing the thing that your beloved grandparent with dementia does: he’s gone wandering around town in an embarrassing state of undress. As ya do. As ya do. He’s landed himself in Qureshi’s Excellent Books where he is refused service by the proprietor himself.  We’ve spent so much time wandering around with Grant and Xander and Kore that I forget what it’s like to be in peasant land where everyone’s five foot three.  Xander gives Qureshi a sob story and Qureshi buys it.  Xander gives his first name to Qureshi, who cannot reasonably be expected to recognize it. In fact, Qureshi, amiable and clueless and telepath-obsessed appears to have absolutely no suspicions at all.  However he seems to attribute the cause of Xander’s misfortunes to a different source than Xander does.  In fact he apologizes to Xander for causing him any inconvenience.  They shake over a platitude and Xander can finally get what he came for.  A cuppa fancy joe.
