Al Kiefer's white hotel robe (Los Angeles — S1E16)

A mid-weight, knee-length white robe of soft terry or lightweight cotton, loosely tied at the waist and slightly rumpled from use. The robe slips easily over nightclothes, sleeves falling open at the cuffs; Al Kiefer wears it with casual authority as he answers the hotel door, its plainness underscoring domestic intimacy when Joey later appears similarly wrapped.

Wrong Door, Quiet Humiliation

The white robe worn by Al (and later noted on Joey) is a visual shorthand of domestic intimacy and private access; its presence on both figures quietly reveals their closeness and undercuts Josh's assumptions.

Before: Worn by Al when he answers; presumably on Joey inside the room/bathroom.

After: Still being worn by the occupants; remains an ongoing visual cue of intimacy after the door closes.
