How to solve this clue
If you're stuck on this one, here are a few angles that often help with LA Times clues like this:
- Watch for misdirection. If the clue ends in a question mark or feels weirdly phrased, the answer is probably a pun, a homophone, or a non-literal interpretation.
- Match the part of speech. A noun clue takes a noun answer; a verb clue takes a verb in the same tense.
- Try common short fills first. Three- and four-letter answers tend to recur across thousands of puzzles.
- Crosscheck with the perpendicular entries. If the Across entry is fighting you, fill in the Down words that cross it.
- Consider context. Theme entries often relate to the puzzle's overall gimmick.
