R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit, during the scene between Bilbo Baggins and Gollum. Of course, Bilbo won the riddle contest by effectively cheating, asking the creature “What’s in my pocket?” which was—and I agree with Gollum here—quite unfair.

All green and grey boxes today, which I always find surprising. SPORE is a word I use from time to time as an opener, and it was very lucky today. With just 8 words left, I guessed SPITE, and sure enough I got another green vowel.

I didn’t realize there were three words left. In fact, I just popped in the first one that came to mind—SPINE—and thank goodness.

This term originally referred to sharp or pointed structures, like a thorn, and later came to describe the human backbone due to its resemblance to a row of spikes or thorns. The usage evolved through Old French ( "espine" ) and Middle English ( "spine" ) to its modern English form, retaining its dual meanings related to anatomy and pointed structures.
