So @infangthief which were the words you actually meant for filter? (it's amusing that our last two words were both the ones we each wanted for it!)
Filter -> Coffee, Screen, Mail (as in email filtering. I didn't think (or know) about filtering with Maple syrup. And I totally didn't expect Film there. I mostly just went with it because of how well my Filter: 4 clue had gone in Codenames XII; it seems to be quite a versatile word!)
The other clues went as intended.
I'd been planning a "Ragtime" clue for Maple, Swing and South, but had to wait for Piano to go first. And by then they'd hit on Swing for us too.

Ah, I didn't even think about email - duh. Great clues from both teams this round.

My only disappointment was that Galz and faust didn't make the "private practice" connection. I was hoping our recent experience with lipstick had gotten us in the habit of checking for compound words/two-word phrases. Not that I blame you guys; pretty easy to miss and I'm not even sure it's a common phrase outside the US with our weird f'd-up healthcare system.

hmm... certainly Orange. Then it gets less clear...

Knife - used for peeling
Plastic - peel off packaging
Bread - deeply weird people peel the crust off of bread

Film maybe? If something has a film around it you might peel it off?

I’d be fine to lock in Orange and Knife and then decide if we want to guess a third.

I guess? It feels like a little bit of a stretch, but could be. Maybe we prefer to pass?

(Also, I don't usually peel potatoes or carrots)

I vote we pass here. We can pick up the third one later when we know a little more.

I like the first two for sure (though slightly in the other order). Let's start with those:

PLOT -> INFLUENZA

Sorry, yes, er, didn't understand the orange comment. Anyway, we could do FILE. Can you see any other possibilites Scola? Or we could pass. I think I'd prefer file rather than pass here.

Why file? (like an FBI file?). Could be...

I feel like there could be some possibilities because it could be anything related to just bio or just terrorism.

But that said, I don't love any of the more bio (e.g. mammoth) ones.

Maybe something like Africa or Brazil (due to some terrorist groups there?)

I usually err of risking a guess. that way if we're on the right track we can get it in this or a future turn. So feel free to lock any of those in.
