“Come back,” Talarico told Messervy who can be heard off-set saying, “OK. I have never done this without any make up on.  But…” Messervy then walked between the two anchors and waved hello to viewers while clutching what looked like a pony keg of coffee.  After Moise explained away Messervy’s choice of attire, Talarico said, “Thank you for the coffee Messervy.”  Giving a viewers a hint about what Messervy was doing on set with such a large amount of coffee.
