   How is it woken up?

A hook is a courtesy of the program's Author, a place
where humility triumphs over and yet also encompasses
cleverness, an invitation from the past to the Author
in the present.  A good hook is like a nice joke that
builds merriment in the listener, because imagination
is what wakes it and brooks its growth.
