PENT WORDS 80
(click here for a PDF version)
In this puzzle, you must divide the grid into pentominoes (regions containing five cells each), and write a letter in each cell. The rows, reading from left to right, will contain the words hinted at by the ACROSS clues. The letters in the pentominoes, in reading order (left to right starting with the top row), will form the words hinted at by the PENTOMINOES clues; these clues are presented in no particular order. (In the example, the rows spell PLANT, SHARE, and BITES, and the pentominoes spell the words PLANS, TREES, and HABIT.) Use the ACROSS answers to determine where the pentominoes are.
ACROSS (two answers per row):
1 Like much church music / "Church Tech Team Introduces Helpful Bouncing Sing-Along ____" (headline from Christian satirical news site The Babylon Bee)
2 Piece of a pie graph / Helper
3 Gull relative / "Theologians Find Going To Church Via Zoom Will Only Get You Access To ____ Via Zoom" (The Babylon Bee headline)
4 Astonish / Emitted light
5 Beams of light / Firearm part preventing an accidental discharge
6 Briefs, in brief / Tail end
7 Light rain / ____ wrench
8 Cowboy ____ (science fiction anime) / Tank top, for example
9 Amazon AI assistant's name / Many a Strauss composition
10 Genesis garden / 2020 film about elf brothers Ian and Barley Lightfoot
