Across

  • The answer "TVS" fits the clue because televisions are a common feature in man caves. These spaces are often designed for relaxation or entertainment, and TVs are a central element for watching sports, movies, or playing video games, making them a quintessential inclusion.

  • The answer is BRET because Bret Easton Ellis is the full name of the author of American Psycho, a famous novel published in 1991. The clue directly references the author's first name, making BRET the correct solution. This is a straightforward trivia-based clue.

  • The clue "Cooks in a pan" refers to a specific cooking method. SAUTES is the correct answer because sautéing involves cooking food quickly in a small amount of oil or butter in a pan over medium to high heat. It directly describes this cooking technique.

  • The answer is GONDOLA because a gondola is the basket-like compartment suspended under a hot-air balloon that carries passengers and equipment. It serves as the balloon's cockpit or cabin, correctly matching the description in the clue.

  • The clue "Do some bug catching?" with its question mark indicates a pun or wordplay. The answer, "TAKE ILL," refers to "catching a bug" in the sense of becoming sick (as in catching a cold or illness), connecting the idea of "bug" to sickness rather than an insect.

  • The answer "GROANAT" cleverly describes the typical reaction to a dad joke—a groan of exasperation combined with recognition of the joke's humor. The wordplay involves interpreting "React to" as the act of groaning at the joke, making "GROANAT" a fun, fitting solution.

  • The clue "Dippable McDonald's fare, casually" hints at a colloquial or shortened term. "NUGS" is a casual abbreviation for "nuggets," specifically chicken nuggets, a popular dippable item on McDonald’s menu. The informal tone of "casually" matches the slangy nature of "NUGS."

Down

  • The answer is TRUDEAU because Justin Trudeau is the current Prime Minister of Canada, a well-known politician. The clue references him by his first name, Justin, and recently he was in the news for being seen with pop star Katy Perry, connecting him to the clue's context.

  • The question mark indicates a pun or wordplay. "Skipping out on a bill" refers to rejecting a legislative bill, not evading payment. "VETOING" fits as it describes a president or leader officially rejecting (skipping out on) a proposed law or bill.

  • The answer "STELLAS" refers to Stella Artois, a well-known Belgian beer brand that is often packaged in green bottles. The clue uses "familiarly" to indicate a common, informal shorthand for Stella Artois—"Stellas." This aligns perfectly with the green bottles and Belgian beer reference.

  • The phrase "Place trust in" aligns with the expression "bank on," meaning to rely or depend on something or someone confidently, much like you would trust a bank to safeguard your money. This figurative language makes BANKON a fitting answer.

  • The answer "SOAR" fits this clue because to "fly like an eagle" describes the action of gliding or flying high in the air with ease. Eagles are known for their ability to soar gracefully at great altitudes, making "SOAR" the perfect synonym for this movement.

  • SALT is the solution because it is a common seasoning added to pasta water to enhance flavor. Adding salt to boiling water is a standard cooking practice that seasons the pasta as it cooks, making it a logical answer to the clue.

  • The clue "catch u later ✌️" is conversational and informal, mimicking a quick sign-off in a text or chat. The answer "GTG" stands for "Got to go," matching that casual, shorthand tone for saying goodbye. The ✌️ emoji reinforces the exiting or departing theme.
