I'm SO close. I work on these at work and this is the first time I've ever felt like I could possibly get the answer. Could I grab a nudge from anyone? :?

I asked Google Bard what the answer to this week's Wall Street Journal meta puzzle is. Hate to spoil it for you all, but apparently it's CONTEST, which isn't a two-word answer and seems to have nothing to do with the title DOUBLE TROUBLE. I mentioned those inconsistencies to
Bard, and it says every answer in the puzzle contains the letters CONTEST.

Might not quite be sentient just yet.

OMG, @hcbirker! It CANNOT be a coincidence that Kiefer's co-star is named Meta!
Good luck, fellow Muggles!

On shore.

Late doing the puzzle (last night just before dinner when the kids' schedules and mine finally synced for a zoom), and even later posting.

As with the many others on this crowded beach, it was I know the word, you know the word, we all know the word for us.

Good Sunday Morning muggles

First we welcome our newest muggle - chyna. Always great to have more muggles

And before we get to the list a reminder that we have the Last Call zoom session at 8 pm ET tonight to help those who have not gotten the meta and to just discuss metas or any other things that might pop up.

Currently we have 4 on the ship and 217 on the shore. SReh26 has joined the other muggles with Isaac.

And the following have made their way to the shore

Busy week with family here during their spring break; but I found a few minutes to look at the crossword.
Ashore! Nice crowd!

Ashore.
Hello, beach crowd. The last step took me an embarrassing amount of time, but I will use the excuse that I wanted to be fashionably late to the party.
