Devour is an episode of May I Have a Word where Emily correctly defined the word.

Devour

Plot[]

In Round 1, after seeing three examples of Huggy devouring food, Phil buzzes in while eating a sandwich, and his answer cannot be understood. Emily then buzzes in and correctly defines Devour as "to gobble down food".

 Phil: "That's what I said!"
 Tommy: "Well, who could understand you when you were devouring that sandwich?!"
 Phil: "I clearly said, devour means to gobble down food!"

He then takes another bite and says it again. Although the words are muffled by the food, you can make out what he is saying. But Beau disqualifies Phil for talking with his mouth full, so Emily is declared the winner.

Emily also wins the bonus round, correctly choosing picture #2, in which Dr. Two-Brains is devouring a piece of cheese.


Prizes[]
