Craig Melvin is holding down the Today fort with the help of a familiar face.

Savannah Guthrie was noticeably absent from Melvin’s fourth day as official cohost of the NBC morning show for a very understandable reason. Melvin kicked off the Jan. 16 broadcast by addressing why his co-worker was already taking a day off not even one week into his tenure as Hoda Kotb‘s replacement at the news desk.

“Welcome to Today, so glad you’re with us on this busy Thursday morning,” the 45-year-old told viewers. “Laura Jarrett is in, Savannah’s a little under the weather.”

Of course, Melvin didn’t hold any hard feelings towards Guthrie as she stayed home to recover from an undisclosed illness.

“I know what you’re thinking,” he jokingly added, “that after three days of Craig she decided to bail.”

Jarrett hilariously replied, “I wasn’t going to say it…But it’s nice to be with you.”
