Beau Handsome: What is going on with you, Emily?

Emily: Ha-ha-ha! It's just the way Huggy pounces on people!

Beau Handsome: Okay, but-- can anyone--

(Emily buzzes in.)

Emily: I'll define it, but can Huggy pretty please pounce on something first?

Beau Handsome: I really don't think that--

(Huggy jumps onto Beau's head. Emily giggles some more.)

Beau Handsome: Thanks, Huggy.

Emily: To pounce is to spring on something, or someone, suddenly!

Beau Handsome: That is correct! Congratulations Emily, you are today's winner! Huggy, show her what she's won!

Beau: (offscreen) An official WordGirl hot air Dr. Two-Brains balloon!
