Butterfly and Economos in “Unfinished Business”

Why did he do that to his beard?

Economos

Do what?

Why did he color his beard all strange like that?

Economos

He thought it made him look younger and more handsome. He never had a girlfriend, so he thought dyeing his beard might help. But he was also lazy, and busy with his job... and he wouldn't dye his roots regularly. And when he did, he used the cheapest brand because he was incredibly underpaid. Mostly, though, he never thought anybody noticed. Until recently, when one guy said it to him all the time.
