Vowels can be asked only after you guess a letter.

Roadkill? Well, alright then. The flag it is. I guess I should be patriotic in this time of trouble.

I decided to put a different kind of flag... from a small movie that was played on TV some time ago.

"I/_ _/ h _ _ e/ I /_ _ t/ t h e/ _ i _ s/ _ n /t i _ h t /e n _ _ _ h/!/"/ h e/
t h _ _ _ h t/,/_ _ t/ _ e _ _ r e/ _ _ n _/ h e/ _ _ s/_ _ r r _ i n _/ t _ _/
m _ _ _/ _ _ _ _ t/ h i m s e _ _/ t _ /r e m e m _ e r/ t h e/ _ _ _ r _ e s/./

N,S,T,R,M,H,E,I.

That's an interesting flag - like a Star of David, but split apart?

Hmm, I don't have a clue what your quote is yet! Is there an A?

Yes. It's some kind of warning, that if we're not careful we might find ourselves - in Israel - split apart.

Trying to ask a vowel without asking a letter before are we? I'm afraid you'll have to guess a regular letter before.

(flag) - hey, good guess on my part, wasn't it?!

(quote) - I already guessed a consonant - do I have to guess another before I guess another vowel? I never thought of that ... well, anyway, is there a D, please?

Ehmmmm.... Well, I don't know. I suppose you did know Star of David is actually made of 2 triagnels? And you saw the similarity to Israel flag? And then... it wasn't really a guess wasn't it? Just guessing here..

Quote:

I think so, it only makes sense... anyway..

D it is:

"I/d _/ h _ _ e/ I /_ _ t/ t h e/ _ i d s/ _ n /t i _ h t /e n _ _ _ h/!/"/ h e/
t h _ _ _ h t/,/_ _ t/ _ e _ _ r e/ _ _ n _/ h e/ _ _ s/_ _ r r _ i n _/ t _ _/
m _ _ h/ _ _ _ _ t/ h i m s e _ _/ t _ /r e m e m _ e r/ t h e/ d _ _ r _ e s/./

N,S,T,R,M,H,E,I,D.

(and missed an 'h', sorry)

I mean it was a guess because I didn't know what it was at first, then I thought about it a bit, then figured it out, but didn't know if I was right or not.

OK, that's prob. a good rule to have

I see... I suppose not many could actually recognize it.

(and it's hard for me to think about it as 'Star of David'. I don't know why.. it'a actually 'shield of David' here. Wonder why)

"shield of David"? Hmm, wonder why? It sure looks like a star - that's what we call it here. Was it on David's shield?

Well, that P didn't help me with the two words I don't know

How about a B?

a-HAH! That did it! It's "before"!

"I do hope I put the lids on tight enough!", he
thought, but before long he was worrying too
much about himself to remember the dwarves.
