He responds that it's just a corn kernel, and if it appears that someone has the wrong rank, it's because someone has corn on their collar. This is a response to some crew members having different ranks in different episodes of the season without it being mentioned.

* BusCrash: Spock 2, the gigantic clone of Spock created back in TAS's "[[Recap/StarTrekTheAnimatedSeriesS1E7TheInfiniteVulcan The Infinite Vulcan]]", apparently died long ago enough prior to this episode that all that remains of him is his bones. Though given how the Phylosian cloning and mind-transfer was explained to work in that story, there's a good chance that he cloned himself into Spock 3 at some point, with his previous body somehow being acquired by Hauze.
