Simone catches sight of the mango.

Simone: Apple.

Lori: This is a mango.

Lori: Mango.

Lori puts down the mango and picks up an apple.

Lori: This is an apple.

Lori: Would you like an apple?

Simone: Yeah? Apple?

Lori cuts up an apple and serves it to the twins.

Simone: Apple!

So... seeing any fruit reminds her of her favorite fruit, which is apples, and so she then asks for it? Am I interpreting this right, with my non-parental inexperienced instincts?

I think it's more like badgerbag suggested in the previous post: mangoes (and pears) fall into the classification "apple," and apples are delicious, so stop talking nonsense, Mom, and give me an apple!
