This should point to at least one place being ours. Imo we should guess Europe - if that is ours and London isn't, Carl is gonna have a bad time. You can bold that if you agree.

I'm cool with Europe - I could make a case for a lot of words here and the safest ones seem like Europe/India/Egypt/London. Actually do we want to maybe start with London since that will be even harder if it's ours and Europe isn't

Knife and Scale out for sure.

Not sure I see another guarantee though.

Maybe wave because of the water connection? Both car and sub are things that are very related to things in the picture, but aren't actually in the picture.

They were hard clued against bat, so maybe go with that?

Tough one; in a parking lot but no car just truck so maybe car is ours

Why not one next to water for wave or sub? Why this picture?

Mercury makes boat engines but prolly too stretchy…but fish also known for containing mercury so maybe why he chose fish instead of another knife+scale words

Why British Columbia? It’s a province not a country so don’t think it eliminates Egypt or India

Maybe London for British connection? London is a county also so not really but kinda like province since they don’t have states or provinces? So maybe London out….my best guess for why this image over other knife+scale images

Yeah, I can't say I'm sold on any of those really.

I'd say mercury makes the most sense, but surely he could have found some Japanese chef carving up swordfish or something to get knife/scale/mercury.

We must be missing something.

Maybe we should say something that 100% isn't in that picture like Theater and re-group next round?

We need to say bat and pass

That is their only safe word other than scale, which we can’t guess

Don’t need to help them by going theater or other words

well some more stuff out - let's make a safeish to guess list perhaps?

Seems OK: Knife, Leprechaun, Palm

Who Knows: Buffalo, Calf, Egypt, Heart, Hospital, India, London, Mercury, Millionaire, Racket, Sub, Suit, Theater, Wave

Let's Not: Car, Draft, Laser, Scale, Soldier, Spy

would be my first draft going through a quick time

I feel like London is more likely to be ours now that Europe is wrong.

This could be some kinda British invasion typa deal so I'm unsure about London, would rather start with safe ones

Palm and Leprechaun just seems like we haven't been clued off at all and especially Palm seems OK, cool starting knife since that also has the same stuff going for it

Agree on the rest except Draft is a never for me since there was a baseball team and now military

Also, him not cluing off leprechaun or palm at this stage means absolutely nothing. Unless blues have been clued off a word, we can't guess it yet.

So unless there is something else you think blues have been 100% clued off that we haven't, we gotta just pass here.

I still think Palm and Leprechaun should be safe...Leprechaun doesn't meet your criteria but pic 2 does have trees so I'm highly doubting Palm is theirs

cool with either one, will let you decide if you wanna bold Palm or Pass

There are trees, but they aren't palm trees, so def not a gimme. No reason to gift them a word.

Pass
