You have to listen very carefully to the question and the way it is
worded. I don't think what you typed is correct. The three words that
are the answer are:
angry
hungry
what

The last bit is a statment not a question. 'What' IS the third word.

At least that is what the article in the Hartford Courant said a couple
of weeks ago.
