Be beholden to (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

owe

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">be beholden to</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for owe that I've seen before include "Have a debt to (someone)" , "overdrawn" , "Have obligation to pay" , "Have outstanding" , "Have a duty to pay" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday, The Telegraph, The Star Tribune and The New York Times.
