Jenna Bush Hager was shocked to find out her cohost Hoda Kotb has sticky fingers - after admitting to pilfering a common hotel item.
The Today cohosts were discussing a now-viral TikTok clip, which ignited the debate over whether or not the hotel robe is free for guests to take.
The clip showed Peloton instructor Jen Sherman getting ready with her friend in a hotel room, who was wearing a white hotel robe.
In the clip, the two women debated over what is up for grabs when visiting a hotel - with one insisting robes are to be taken - unless stated otherwise.
Speaking as she did her makeup, Jen reiterated: 'You just said there has to be a sign that says, if you'd like to buy this robe, here is where you buy it. If the sign is nowhere in the room, you believe this is free to take home for yourself?'

Her friend agreed with her evaluation of what can be taken from a hotel room - much to Jenna's shock.
While the hosts unanimously agreed that you 'can't take the robe' - with Hoda, 60, adding: 'everyone knows that' - the TV icon had her own confession surrounding the other linen in hotel rooms.
'I have taken a washcloth,' she shared, much to Jenna's shock, adding it was on purpose.
'Something was leaking. I can't remember but I wanted to wrap it up in something,' the longtime TV host explained.
'I didn't have anything,' she explained. 'So [I thought] I will take the washcloth. Sorry.'
'Do you think you can take robes?' Jenna, 42, clarified.
'No. You cannot take a robe.' she declared.
'But you can take washcloths?' Jenna joked.
'If you need it,' Hoda retorted, laughing.

Today show icon Hoda Kotb has announced she will be leaving the show early next year
During her emotional announcement on Thursday's show, the star sobbed alongside her co-anchors
Jenna, 42, then reenacted how the thievery could have taken place.
'Y'all, we know it,' she joked. '[Hoda] opened her luggage. She took out her clothes. She spread them nicely here. And then it fell in.'
On Thursday, Hoda announced she will be leaving the Today show early next year so she can give 'a bigger piece of her time pie' to her daughters.
The long-time anchor shared the surprising update in a heartfelt message to her 'Today family' live on air surrounded by her cohosts.
Hoda, who has been part of NBC News for 26 years, was immediately moved to tears as she explained to her fellow co-hosts turning 60 had been a 'monumental moment' that made her decide it was time to 'try something new'.
The TV icon - who reportedly earns around $8 million a year - also wrote a letter explaining her 'painful' decision to her colleagues, explaining further that marking her 60th birthday sparked a seismic 'shift' in her life.
The longtime host added that she will 'remain a part of the NBC family,' concluding, 'How could I not? Family is family, and you all will always be a part of mine.'
