Again think you can restore yourself to favour (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

redeem

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'can restore yourself to favour' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'again think' is the wordplay.
'again' becomes 're' (prefix meaning 'again').
'think' becomes 'deem' (I've seen this in another clue).
're'+'deem'='REDEEM'

'you' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for redeem that I've seen before include "Get back" , "Recover from the pawnshop" , "Retrieve from sin or pawnshop" , "Deposed Libyan dictator" , "rescue" .)
