Collapses, with "over"
Answer:
KEELS
Hint:
Think of what a ship might do when it tips dramatically sideways.
Explanation:
The word "keels" means to fall or collapse, like a ship tipping over. The clue adds "with 'over'" to hint at the phrase "keels over," a common expression for something toppling or fainting. So, the answer is "KEELS," dropping the "over" since it’s already implied by the clue’s wording.
