Premise

With Arthur off doing his homework, D.W. spends some quality time with the Brain. She learns about many things in science. When Arthur refuses to go with her to the Exploratorium, she makes her own in the back yard. She makes many false theories about science and spreads them to her friends, but Arthur can't think of how to prove them wrong. He ultimately takes her to the Exploratorium to explain how things really work.

Quotes

Arthur: Dad, D.W. is about to bother us.

D.W.: I haven't done anything yet.

Arthur: I know you. You're going to start saying, "What are you watching?", "What's that?", "What's happening?"

:D.W.: Oh yeah! PROVE IT!

Arthur: Now do you see how stuff really works and how all your crazy experiments were wrong?

D.W.: I only had one experiment, Arthur. I said one day you'd beg to take me here, and here I am. My experiment was a complete success: I proved I'm smarter than you.

Arthur: Did what I think happened... happen?
