| He was garbed in a laced-up green tunic, gauntlets, spats, and khaki pants with large stitches up the front and back seams. | 
| After endless bickering, they overcome their spats and, together again, fight their way to a glorious victory. |

| Fay and Dave seldom fought and when they did it was usually little spats, bought on by Fay's fiery personality. | 
| They're typical brothers, so they get into these little spats with each other sometimes, and they separate them. |
