Answer:  “PUN“ OUT OF STEAM

(Poor babies!  LOL!  There were no new clue words today, but three of the jumbles were.  We’ve definitely only seen the one for “oomph” before.  I thought both the jumbles for “misuse” and “finale” were great!  The answer letter layout was outstanding!  A super duper jumble.  Figured the middle two words had to be OUT OF.  The quotation marks led me to PUN, and then to STEAM.  Fine cartoon.  The boys really look beat.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
