I saw the P theme, just didn’t know Garrett or A’ja but those were the only two remaining that were potential first names. Didn’t know anyone in the B category but it was clear what G and Y were so process of elimination

Probably would have gotten it on my own, since I saw 3 yellows and 3 greens. Asked spouse, who cheated and googled THEREMIN, which resolved it. Still didn’t see purple until reveal.

Got Blues with rationale on my own, but didn’t understand why trillion fit. Is it (after quick google lookup of “million”) the old British meaning, where trillion is not our current trillion?

We own a theremin. But there were 5 musical instruments.

Million, billion, trillion, quadrillion, quintillion… Of course it means “three”, or maybe “third”.

I saw the trap, but didn’t find any of the connections. It didn’t help that i read entrance as a noun, not a verb. i tried for “things that fly” (thinking it was kinda weak to include “fly”) but couldn’t find a fourth. I wasn’t going to get “words from Miss Mary Mack”. i finally guessed kinda randomly to see the answer. Not my day, i guess.

Didn’t get purple.

I missed the p conn. Mrs G correctly predicted I wouldn’t see it. One adult daughter was hinting to another with the hand signs from the game. But they were the wrong hand signs (from another game), which earned a strong rebuke :laughing:
