Act poorly?

Ross

I believe the answer is:

emote

'act poorly?' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for emote that I've seen before include "Show exaggerated feelings" , "Show extreme feelings" , "Portray feelings theatrically" , "Go over the top" , "Show great feelings" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
