🚪 EXIT STRATEGY
We’re at the front door as a woman realizes the young man standing there has decided to sell it all and head out into the world. No suitcase, no plan, no safety net, just a smile on his face, the clothes on his back, and a promise that he’ll send a postcard someday. She looks worried. He looks ready. Some people need maps. Others just need a door to open.

🧠 FINAL SOLVE
The final answer was an anagram consisting of that would solve into a . What a way to start the weekend. David’s been knocking it out of the park lately, and today’s puzzle was another heavy hitter. The wording of the cartoon sentence had me thinking GREAT right away. It was the “UN-OWN” part that really slowed things down. Once those letters were pulled aside, I just couldn’t see anything meaningful. When it finally clicked, it left me with one of those “Why did it take me so long to see it?” moments. If today’s solve slowed you down, the dialogue about selling everything and the laid-back attitude at the door were the biggest nudges.
