"… actually, let's go to plan B"
Answer:
ORNOT
Hint:
Think of a phrase that suggests reconsidering the original idea, often heard in casual debates or when weighing options. The answer is a short contraction that implies an alternative choice.
Explanation:
This clue plays on the phrase "plan B," which sounds like the letter "B" when spoken aloud. The answer "ORNOT" comes from the full expression "plan B or not," mimicking the hesitation in the clue ("...actually, let's go to plan B"). It’s a pun where "plan B" is treated as a literal choice between "B" and "not B," with "or not" completing the answer.
