“Hold that thought …”

MORE TO COME LATER …

This phrase often appears at the end of a message when the speaker needs to pause but plans to continue the conversation soon. Think of it as a verbal "to be continued."

The clue mimics how someone might pause mid-sentence when they’re not finished speaking, like saying "Hold that thought..." to signal they’ll return to the topic. The answer "MORE TO COME LATER..." directly mirrors that idea—it’s a phrase you’d use to indicate an unfinished statement or delayed continuation. The ellipsis (...) in both the clue and answer reinforces the trailing-off effect, making it a playful nod to how we interrupt ourselves in conversation.
