Put lap instead of belt for the blues. I've heard of lapping up water, but I don't think I've heard of belt in that context.

<blues>
<purples>
First wrong guess was under/watch/shot/lap, thinking it went with over ____. Second wrong guess was putting lap with the blues...lap with the blues made sense to me, but at least my first wrong guess meant that I knew shot+lap couldn't both be blues.

King was the first thing I saw, but idk what king cake is, so I didn't have a fourth and had to leave it until the end. And then I only knew three of the Eddie Murphy roles, but I figured Foley was more likely than cake.

BLUES

Saw Cobra/Kong/Tut right away but never heard of King Cake. Also, I wondered if Donkey had anything to do with Shrek but wasn't familiar enough with the others to make the Eddie Murphy connection.

wrong guess was donkey, Dolittle, barrel, fly. Things related to monkeys haha

Also for the one everybody didnt know, king cake is a dessert I have never personally tried but associate with Mardi Gras. I think its very much a regional thing (southern U.S.)

I figured out a reasonable guess for the last Eddie Murphy role, then figured that "cake" was the only possible fourth for the purple. I had both of those categories figured out. Green was easier than yellow to spot once the others were off the board.

Pretty sure the trap was a repeat of a previous purple group, which made me immediately suspicious.
