Why this is the answer (spoilers)
A day of open lists with one big trap. Seeing Red accepts 21 red fruits, and the list quietly includes the Tomato, noted as botanically a fruit, plus the Pomegranate that also counted on the P-fruit day. The SpongeBob round excludes SpongeBob and Patrick by rule, so start with Squidward, Mr. Krabs and Sandy. Surrounded by Sea is the widest list so far at 47 island nations, from Japan and the United Kingdom down to small states, and it accepts Australia with the note 'island continent'. Five correct picks per round finish the day.
