Discuss word games, puzzles, and The Atlantic's Puzzler in our online forum. Emily Cox and Henry Rathvon may drop by from time to time.In each Across clue, one word is missing its last letter. You may use the blank in front of an Across clue to record that clue’s missing letter. When the puzzle is done, you’ll have the final chore of arranging those 18 letters into a two-word phrase that is apt until, ironically, you discover it. As a last hint, this phrase jokingly describes the unclued two-word entry in the diagram at 21 Across. Four clue answers are capitalized.
The instructions above are for this month's puzzle only. See a complete introduction to clue-solving.
