That evening at dinner, D.W. talks excitedly about the meeting, saying that she even got to learn the secret Bionic Bunny handshake. Mr. Read suggests that he could even make his carrot layer cake with creamy mayonnaise frosting for their next meeting. At bedtime, D.W. visits Arthur's room, telling him that she should start attending all of their meetings, since everyone likes her so much. This is met with an eye-roll, but when she shows him a brownie she saved for him, he says that one or two more meetings might be okay. | That evening at dinner, D.W. talks excitedly about the meeting, saying that she even got to learn the secret Bionic Bunny handshake.
