"'ve" sound I'm not able to hear
According to the following transcription, she says "I've got a lot of studying to catch up on." at 02:27 in .
However, I couldn't catch 've sound in the above sentence, although I listened to it repeatedly.
Is it actually pronounced? Or is my listening skill not still enough?

I didn't hear it either.
I don't think it was actually said at all. The sound is often just omitted in fast, casual speech.

She does not say it or think it. She says, "I got a lot of studying ...." It's ungrammatical, but what do you expect from a cartoon character? Such misconjugations are characteristic of casual speech.
