Text Eric about concealing answer and get out (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

extricate

'get out' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'text eric about concealing answer' is the wordplay.
'about' is an anagram indicator.
'concealing' is an insertion indicator.
'answer' becomes 'a' (abbreviation eg in Q and A).
'text'+'eric'='texteric'
'texteric' anagrammed gives 'extricte'.
'extricte' placed around 'a' is 'EXTRICATE'.

'and' is the link.

(Other definitions for extricate that I've seen before include "wriggle free" , "Disentangle, release from difficulty" , "Free from entanglement" , "Disentangle, set free" , "Free from entanglements" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
