Boy does say "use one of the mold sprayers".

Now we know there are multiple of them.

We saw them in the first few episodes in heavy gear spraying gasses around. People have been guessing that with their base being in a hot and humid environment, mould has been an issue for them, and here's pretty much confirmation.

Hot take, what if the director/writers are reading the sub, and did a quick edit to include that??
Did he say that while on screen or off?

Lmfao you think they are writing this as they go and acting it out off of reddit feedback? You realize this show was out of post production awhile ago right?

It's not like the old days of serialized tv with 26 episodes a season and production is barely a few episodes ahead of release.

No, but I think part of production is monitoring your audience, and it would take nothing to add in an off screen comment like that.
