I wouldn’t get too hung up on more funeral words beyond Undertaker and maybe Hospital. We know we have six words clued between Cruiser and sparkle. Should just look at funeral as a two clue at best. Overanalyzing what could fit multiple clues at this point doesn’t help. We need three more Cruiser words and one more sparkle word. And we pretty much have to assume Undertaker and Hospital are good.

Well, maybe not Hospital. But we have to assume funeral ties to two words that hadn’t yet been clued. And not worry about funeral connections beyond that.

log - do funerals have logs?
unicorn

If you feel pretty good about the top five, then literally the only one you can guess from your bottom three is Unicorn.

Unless you’re trying to say that Log and Row both fit sparkle.

hospital could be sparkle too

funeral could be chair. hospitals don't have much to do with funerals

i think undertaker and hospital are more likely funeral words. but hospitals are very clean. they could be said to sparkle, or at least be sparkling clean. but yeah im ok to concede that unicorn is most likely sparkle word

If you want to discuss Chair instead of Hospital for the funeral clue, then I'm all ears. I don't love Hospital.

My problem with this is that I don't like Chair for Cruiser. Cars don't have chairs, they have seats. Cars have hoods. Are we missing a meaning for Cruiser? We legit hit two red words because we've been using the warship definition. Maybe we're WAY off.

The only slam dunk is Unicorn, obv.

i didn't think of warship at first. but my first reaction wasn't very helpful. i don't think any of these are good.

but if he wasn't cluing cruiser for warship then maybe date comes back in. people do go on dates in cruisers. in the movie harold and maude they went on dates to funerals too lol, but that's a big stretch

funerals def have chairs. chairs > hospital for funeral

Filthy, please explain to me why you keep ignoring hood. If cruiser is clueing a car, I need to understand why you think something like date hits harder than a literal part of a car.

People going on dates on a ship is not something that will get me to agree with date as ours.
