Pulls toe, deviously, to make it absolutely clear (5,3)
I believe the answer is:
spell out
'make it absolutely clear' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'pulls toe deviously' is the wordplay.
'deviously' indicates an anagram (I've seen this in other clues).
'pulls'+'toe'='pullstoe'
'pullstoe' anagrammed gives 'SPELL OUT'.
'to' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for spell out that I've seen before include "Give precise details" , "writing letters?" , "Temporary release from prison" , "Explain in detail" .)
