Which verb does not belong with the other words in set bring buy catch draw fight seek teach think?

The verb that doesn't belong is think. Here's why:

* All the other verbs are actions that have a direct, observable outcome:

* Bring: To carry something to a place.

* Buy: To acquire something with money.

* Catch: To seize or apprehend.

* Draw: To create a picture or to pull something towards you.

* Fight: To engage in physical or verbal conflict.

* Seek: To try to find something.

* Teach: To impart knowledge or skills.

* Think is a mental process, not a physical action with a direct, observable outcome. It's an internal action that doesn't necessarily result in something tangible happening in the external world.
