A blue slate pops into view; the title of the show is overwritten in capital golden letters. It reads "The lady vocab show."

Professor P says WELCOME TO THE
LADY VOCAB SHOW.
I'M YOUR HOST,
PROFESSOR P,
AND JOINING ME IS THE FIRST
LADY OF VOCABULARY,
LADY VOCAB!
Professor P is in his late twenties; he has short, dark, curly hair, a moustache and dark rimmed square glasses. He’s wearing a dark grey sweater with a silver "P" on it, over a white shirt and tie.

Lady Vocab says THANKS, PROFESSOR P.
ARE YOU READY TO VENTURE
INTO NEW VOCAB TERRITORY?

Lady Vocab is in her thirties; she has straight blond hair in a bob and wears a plastic striped black and white dress that reads "window shuttle, machine package, magnetic over" with black leather gloves and square futuristic white glasses.
She stands in front of an old fashioned metal microphone.
A sign behind her reads "Vocab" in a column decreasing in size.

Professor P stands in front of a keyboard and says THAT'S MY FAVOURITE
PLACE TO BE.
THE WORD OF THE
WEEK IS...

He touches a screen and reads INQUIRE.
IT IS A VERB WHICH MEANS
TO SEEK INFORMATION
BY QUESTIONING.

She suggests AS IN 'I ALWAYS INQUIRE
WHEN I FIND WORDS
I DON'T UNDERSTAND'.

He says PRECISELY.
AND IT'S NO WONDER YOU'RE
SO GREAT WITH WORDS.

She says OH, THANKS,
PROFESSOR.

She takes her glasses off as she says YOU KNOW, THAT REMINDS
ME OF WHEN I WAS JUST
A LITTLE GIRL GROWING UP
DREAMING OF BECOMING A STAR...
WHEN I RECEIVED MY
FIRST STORY TO READ
IN FRONT OF MY
THIRD GRADE CLASS.
I WAS SO EXCITED!

He says YOU MUST HAVE SAILED
THROUGH THAT TEXT.

She says NO, QUITE THE
OPPOSITE.

He says WHAT?

She explains I WAS TERRIBLE.

He says WHY?
BUT HOW?

She says ONE WORD...
WORDS.

He says WORDS?
WHAT ABOUT WORDS?
YOU LOVE THEM.

She says I KNOW, BUT THERE
WAS SO MANY THAT
I DIDN'T KNOW THE
DEFINITION TO
I COULDN'T UNDERSTAND
THE STORY.

He holds his head and says OH, NO, THAT MUST HAVE
BEEN FRUSTRATING.

She says IT WAS.
SO WHAT DID
YOU DO?

She says WELL, I DIDN'T
LOSE HOPE.
I KNEW THERE WAS ONLY
ONE THING I COULD DO.

He says YOU ALWAYS PULL
THROUGH, MY LADY.
I BET I CAN GUESS
WHAT YOU DID.

She says I KNOW YOU CAN.
HIT IT!

She spells out the Word and the letters pop into view.

She says I-N-Q-U-I-R-E

She sings INQUIRING REALLY
IS THE KEY
WHEN THERE'S SOMETHING
THAT YOU WISH TO KNOW
ASK FOR THE
INFORMATION PRONTO
NICE ROBOT!
ASKING IS LEARNING
MAKE SURE YOU'RE
LISTENING WHEN INQUIRING
INQUIRING
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN?
INQUIRE

The word flashes on screen as she sings
INFORMATION FOR HIRE
INQUIRE
WHAT DOES THAT
WORD MEAN?
INFORMATION FOR HIRE
THINK OF WHAT
YOU CAN LEARN
THERE'S NEW INFORMATION
AT EVERY TURN
WHAT'S YOUR
FAVOURITE COLOUR?
INQUIRE
INFORMATION FOR HIRE

Professor P says INQUIRE.
YOU NEVER KNOW
UNTIL YOU ASK.
AND WE ASK YOU TO
TUNE IN NEXT WEEK
FOR AN ALL-NEW EPISODE
OF THE LADY VOCAB SHOW.
INQUIRE
INQUIRE, INQUIRE,
INQUIRE
I'M NOT A LIAR,
INQUIRE...

They keep dancing as the image fades to black and a logo of TVO Kids appears.
