“Odds” follower

Answer:

ARE

Hint:

Not available

Explanation:

This clue plays on the phrase "odds and ends," where "odds" is followed by "and" and then "ends." The answer is the last part of that phrase—"ends" sounds like "are" when pronounced quickly or in some dialects. So, "odds" is followed by "are" in a clever twist on the common expression.
