Cut record for couple with energy that's top drawer and unplugged (12)
I believe the answer is:
disconnected
'unplugged' is the definition.
('disconnect' can be a synonym of 'unplug')
'cut record for couple with energy that's top drawer and' is the wordplay.
I cannot really see how this works, but
'record' could be 'disc' (eg a CD, compact disc) and 'disc' is found within the answer.
'energy' could be 'e' (physics symbol as in E=mc2) and 'e' is present in the answer.
'and' could be 'n' (common abbreviation for 'and') and 'n' is present in the answer.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for disconnected that I've seen before include "Not joined" , "(Of speech) lacking a logical sequence" , "Comfort" , "Unplugged" .)
