Tobey, you're so close to Becky...

How did you NOT hear that?!

The amount Becky was also caught up slipping up with her identity around Tobey of all people isn't much, but also more than enough.

Becky is so lucky that people of this city somehow lose their hearing whenever she whispers around them in close proximity. The audio engineer who works with the narrator should be given a raise/lhj.

And yep, it's not surprising that he's the one always trying to accuse her.

Unrelated, but this scene is interesting because yeah, of course, Tobey wouldn't really know what kind of person Wordgirl would like. Tobey has this dedicated crush, but I always got the feeling he doesn't actually know her well enough yet. I mean, he knows some stuff as we can see in. "Have you seen my remote", but thats because it's also things he enjoys (they have things in common), and I mean, how would she not be thrilled over dictionaries? But when it comes to other things, yeah, of course he wouldn't know. They are enemies. So he's putting these assumptions of what someone like Wordgirl would like, aka this emphasis of needing to be some superior person to match her. I have this whole Tobey analysis of how he changes his process of how to get Wordgirl to like him, and this method of thinking that he has to be the one to prove that he's smarter, stronger, or in this episode have "power". Well, Wordgirl is an alien superhero. He has this idea that she's above everyone (and uh, ig Becky herself in a way thinks this but shh thats for another time), and that's why he likes her because in his dumb ego mind, he's found his equal, but in this episode and some glimpses of others he also thinks that even he has to catch up to match her because he's just an earthling. So he either tries to prove he's smarter or stronger with his robots against her, or he tries to gain notoriety and power amongst other humans so she can be impressed as he thinks. Plus, how he says it. "Guys with power." Hmm, I'll repress my Tobey and gender analysis for now, but it's clear how he wants to just be perceived as this powerful dashing guy because probably he's been bullied a lot for his appearance and ofc his lack of physical strength. And we know he has the world's lowest self-esteem, and he just masks it all by putting on his typical arrogant facade where he thinks this is the reality. Cause sometimes he's not doing it just for Wordgirl to get her attention, he does it because he doesn't want to be seen as a failure or as lesser (he sometimes throws away his plans for it being about Wordgirl at first just to not lose). He's got issues with self-worth, doesn't he...
