VS-9: Viki exhibits learned sounds on command

Here Viki imitates four different sounds on command. Note that she does not always imitate the right sound — she seems to understand that she is being asked to produce different sounds, but doesn’t care much which one she makes. In this sort of situation, there is no penalty for producing the wrong sound, other than it is not reinforced. But it may be easier just to produce all the sounds you know, and surely one of them will be right!
