Agree with ditching witness in confrontation (3,2,3)
I believe the answer is:
eye to eye
'confrontation' is the definition.
I know nothing about this answer so I cannot judge whether this works.
'agree with ditching witness' is the wordplay.
'agree with' becomes 'see eye to eye' (I've seen this before).
'ditching' indicates named letters should be taken away.
'witness' becomes 'see' (synonyms).
'seeeyetoeye' with 'see' taken away is 'EYE TO EYE'.
'in' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for eye to eye that I've seen before include "close up" , "See this in agreement before charging" , "a couple of sleuths" , "as one sleuth addresses another" .)
