Tintin, who rarely shows anger, is unaffected. However the Captain is goaded into memorable rants, for example:
355:, the tables are turned when Tintin and the Captain steal the costumes from the group with which Wagg is traveling, the Jolly Follies. Wagg has an unusual role in Tintin albums in that, unlike most recurring characters with a role in the plot, he is a relatively average human being (not being criminal, eccentric, dictatorial, or famous).
