Reaches a climax and pays the boss a visit? (5,2,1,4)
I believe the answer is:
comes to a head
'pays the boss a visit?' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.
'reaches a climax' is the wordplay.
'reaches' becomes 'comesto' (coming to is a kind of reaching).
'climax' becomes 'head' (I've seen this in another clue).
'comesto'+'a'+'head'='COMES TO A HEAD'
'and' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
Want a hint initially instead of a full solution?
