"And while in my lifetime I've seen science make extraordinary inroads into solving the most complex questions of life, after all this time I admit that I am thrilled that there are some things that forever will remain a mystery. For example, do I wear a toupee?"

Shatner Says...
- -"Wherever hair grows. Let it grow."
- -"And no, it isn't a toupee..."

- -"I don't wear a hairpiece!"
- -"It's [my hair] I was worried about!"
- "It’s a question that I find like asking somebody, 'Did you have a breast implant?' or 'When did you get your lobotomy?' "
- "Is it a mystery you’ll be taking to your grave?" "Probably."
