- 7.1 Language can bind. For today, when you mean “a little rest” say “open-heart surgery”; when you mean “scalpel” say “Scarlet Pimpernel.”
- 7.2 Just-right a too-hot soup, fast:

- 7.3 When Fresh Air is a repeat, don’t immediately assume the guest has died. The guest may have won an award.
- 7.4 You would evict Gargantua from your rental; evict larynx tension from your larynx by different means and for different reasons.
