Special Notes about the 2024 Puzzle Challenge: To be considered for Fastest Solver points, you must verify your solution with Certitude. Finders will receive Top Finder points when submitting Found It logs to the cache page. All "point" scoring is arbitrary, subject to change, at the discretion of the cache owner, and probably completely meaningless (unless you just want to be announced sooner at the celebration party, which will probably happen on March 16th happen on March 15th, 2025). The real challenge is to see whether I can keep from getting so frustrated by submitting caches that I decide to quit! To maintain fairness, hints should not be offered by the cache owner or other solvers until the fifteenth of the month.

Special Notes about this month's puzzle: I was creating last month's puzzle and I got a GCID that I felt merited its own themed puzzle. Then, I was watching a free trial of Amazon Prime and saw the above scene; so this is what I came up with puzzlewise for this month.


You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
