Grasp the branch (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

twig

I believe this is a double definition.

'grasp' is the first definition.
(both can mean to realise something)

'branch' is the second definition.
(I know that twig is a type of branch)

'the' is the link.

(Other definitions for twig that I've seen before include "bit of wood" , "Slender woody shoot" , "Division of branch" , "very little from box, perhaps" , "Suddenly comprehend" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
