Answer: CUT TO THE CHASE
(Fantastic pun! You can just see the wheels turning in the burglars head. By the time this clown is done with his spiel I could be outta here! Hey, the door is open, the gate is open, and the Barney Fife character doesn’t seem to be exuding confidence. But, the self-preservationist in the burglar is thinking: Alright, you got me! Just shut up already, and put the cuffs on me!
No new clue words today, but some super jumbling all around. I had trouble getting three of them, and I was really happy to finally get “fiasco”, because I’m not so sure I would have been able to back into it. It took me longer than usual to come up with the solution with all the letters. I don’t know if I could have solved it without the A and the C. The answer letter layout was beautiful. It made you think the five letter word might be HOUSE, but that would have used up 3 of the 5 vowels! Then I thought that the second word might have been AS, or the first might have been ACT, but I couldn’t take that anywhere. I had to stand up and start to walk away before it struck me. Nice job, Hoyt! The cartoon was priceless! Be well and do good, friends.) — YUR
