Season 3 episode 1 profiled Jim Lovell of Apollo 13 fame, including his 2 Gemini flights.
It was noted that the Gemini Spacecraft was extremely cramped similar to the rear seat of a Volkswagen Bug.
Eileen Collins reports that to lighten the load and insert some levity to the long and cramped Gemini 7 mission Astronaut Frank Borman turns to Lovell and starts singing "Put you sweet lips a little closer to the phone".
