Prove It

Summary
D.W. discovers a passion for science, but her explanations for questions like why the sky is blue don't sound right to Arthur.

Plot
The intro begins with Brain explaining the Earth's rotation that causes day and night when Arthur stops him, saying they don't understand what he's saying. We then see he's talking to Baby Kate and Pal.

After the title card, Arthur and Buster were watching NOVA when D.W. distracts them, annoying Arthur. Later, Arthur and Francine were playing catch when Francine spelled a word D.W. couldn't understand. Later, Arthur wants to see the sci-fi movie 5,000 Explosions and a Supernova. D.W. wants to go too, but Arthur wouldn't let her. In Arthur's room, D.W. talks to the Brain, annoying Arthur. Brain showed D.W. some science fun while Arthur is doing his homework. At dinner, Arthur blamed D.W. for bothering the Brain, which D.W. denies. After dinner, D.W. wants to go to the exploratorium, but Arthur wouldn't let her.

The next day, D.W. started her own world of science and wouldn't let Arthur in, but Arthur loaned her 73 cents, a ring, a torn horse sticker, and a sourball. D.W. presents her exhibit wrong, much to Arthur's annoyance.

Finally, Arthur tells his parents he wants to take D.W. to the exploratorium, which his dad is surprised by. "Yes, please!" Arthur replies. "Tell her she has to go!"

With that, Arthur and the Brain take D.W. to the exploratorium to learn the correct scientific answers to her questions. D.W. then states that her theory that Arthur would beg to take her to the exploratorium was correct, much to his shock. Brain comments that D.W. is much smarter than she seems.
