Miracle Fruit 6-1-09 Alien Growth

I've added colors to draw attention to what I observed this Monday morning.  Over the weekend these long growths developed (circled in red) and to the best of my knowledge there was nothing there before the weekend.  This is in addition to the new leaves I've had sprout recently (circled in blue) due to my hardcore misting every few hours.  The plant is certainly liking the treatment, but I'm very curious about its intentions given that there isn't much vertical growth going on but plenty of foliage developing.  And what will come of the new spindly growth?  While it appears similar to the branches that come from the main stalk, this would be a first coming from an offshoot (for reference, the top red circle is coming off the main stalk and therefor just resembles a new branch, the bottom one is coming off an already well established branch).
