( The recording shows a small toad, black and red and gold, sitting in the palm of one hand. In another hand a brilliant emerald green toad is held, pointed in the direction of the smaller toad.

Ugh. Fine. For the sake of proving this works before anyone else suffers through this —

She's about ten years older, and got into some trouble back when I was a kid. I guess she was also kind of a kid herself.
