🧠 FINAL SOLVE

The final answer was a 13-letter anagram that solved into a 6 + 2 + 2 + 3 layout. One look at the cartoon and letter layout, and the answer instantly came to mind before my pen hit the paper. That’s two days in a row for anyone keeping score at home. If today’s puzzle slowed you down, our nudges were everyone looking up at the next diver and the way he’s being talked about both in and out of the water.
