"He's a good egg. I like him," Whoopi said, at an apparent loss for words.

Joy and Elisabeth began to battle for control of the big screen behind them -- the former torturing viewers with photos of her soon-to-be-married daughter and fiance, the latter with pics of her very young daughter on a pony.

Whoopi told Joy that if she really wants to try to get pregnant, she, Whoopi, has one good egg left, which she keeps "very safe in the fridge. And, man --"

"I have this book that I'm committed to," Babs interrupted in one of the worst segues in television history.

"When I left '20/20,' I thought I would have nothing to do. I thought I would learn Spanish and go to museums and things I haven't done," Walters continued, mistaking us for people who care.

"I committed to writing an autobiography. It will be either so good or so awful. It comes out in May," Babs said, adding that the thing that bothers her is that she never kept a diary.

We think she's fibbing.

Over the next few minutes, all Whoopi managed to get in, as the other three women chew over the whole "diary" thing, was:

I don't know if that's a good idea.

And:

No, please.

Finally, Joy -- the only one who seemed to realize they were maybe being a tad rude to their new cast member -- asked Whoopi, "What did you do all summer, by the way?"
