Clue/Question: Would he become a professional bodybuilder? He’d have to – – –
Answer: “WEIGHT“ AND SEE
(Nice pun. All of the clue words were old favorites, but only “cadye” has been used as a jumble before. The other three appear to be new. The answer letter layout was superlative! A first class, super jumble! The cartoon is another Jeff Knurek masterpiece. The parents seem to be eating Vienna sausages! Ah-nold is Austrian! Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR

Not my finest attempt. I got the four words without any trouble, but really messed up on the final answer. My first thought was that the first word was WEIGHT but for some reason I felt that some letters were missing. So, I went with HIS as the second word. After almost a minute and a half of messing around, I decided to abandon this idea and then realized that WEIGHT was a possible first word. The answer followed very quickly thereafter.
