"Takeout Order" June 21, 2024

#1

Post by Wendy Walker »

Hello, Muggles! Wendy filling in for the family reunion-bound @Bob cruise director.
Before I post the puzzle info I want to let you know about a subreddit titled "What useless trivia do you only know from doing so many crossword puzzles?" It is SO on target and hilarious.
Crossword trivia subreddit

And now, with no further ado:

TAKEOUT ORDER | By Mike Shenk

EDIT: Solved! 4:25 p.m.

The answer to this week’s contest crossword is a five-letter word.

On Naboo. Saw that coming... as sure as Palpatine's order to take out the Jedi! :twisted: [No spoiler intended...]
