Unscripted babble about an offensively-printed cardigan between two QVC hosts quickly turned into a scientific discussion where hypotheses were made, and judgemental "darlings" were thrown.

Host Jane Treacy noted that the pattern recalls memories of "what the Earth looks like when you're a bazillion miles away from the planet moon." She quickly corrected herself asking, "Isn't the moon a star?" Fashion designer Isaac Mizrahi stepped in, "The moon is a planet honey."
