Lol I'm the reverse. Well, once you substitute 'took a day to see it but got it eventually' for 'no trouble' :lol:

Fun stuff, thanks Will.

This is not shaping up to be my week.....
NUDGES!I am always willing to give nudges where needed; metas should be about fun, not frustration. Send me what you have done so far because often you are closer than you think!

I've got the flu, so I'm foggy in general this week, but this puzzle has me flummoxed! Where to even begin?? Are hints provided at some point before the reveal? Thanks and hats off to those who dino-ed so quickly!

If you had any idea how many times I’ve quoted that line in one lifetime (or plenty of others from that movie… such a classic!)

Needed a nudge to get me out of my overcomplicating rabbit hole, then it was smooth sailing.

Doing these in the proverbial midnight hour might not be the best idea, haha. Got last week's medium pretty well, but I'm a bit flummoxed so far! Will ruminate on it a bit.

Edit: And as soon as I posted that, I went back and saw it instantly. Haha, that was fun, though not sure how I saw it!!

Stared at my filled in grid all week and nothing...then with the deadline approaching, boom there it is! Relieved that I was finally able to get it.

This one was kind of mind-blowing to see the answer. I never extricated myself from this 2-part "starting" rabbit hole:
