Danny's Clothes

Danny mentions needing to change his clothes right before leaving C.J.'s office, capping his shift from flirtatious Bermuda story to urgent claim of U.S. Army Rangers spotted at a remote airstrip. The remark punctuates the escalating tension, as C.J., Carol, the Bermudian agent, and supervisor absorb the national-security implication. No physical details emerge, but the need implies current attire unfit for his next move.
