Unfortunately he gets it back by the end of the episode, but, the concept.... Shrike, a thin, short alien wears a black shirt far too big for him, gesturing to himself, "what, do you just have like a hundred of the same fucking clothes?" Beebs, his much larger colleague with a beard and cyborg parts, yells back "No, shrike, I have like two, and that's one of them. you're welcome." and shrike is distraught "you realize how that's worse??", Beebs throws his hands up in frustration, "sorry for giving you the LITERAL shirt off my back"
