Chick is the only member of the Chums of Chance willing to compliment Miss McAdoo. Perhaps it's an uncouth attempt at flattery but does that matter? It's a compliment in an appropriate situation. It's brave, actually! He's putting himself out there! Is he being honest based on his previous description of Chevrolette's style of sleeves as balloons? Or is he just thinking, "This woman was running about naked so I need to get on her good side!"?
