If the first word feels too easy, it probably scores 10. We would type Confetti: Deep Cut, +85, 8 letters, about 2 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Deodorant, Hairspray, Spray paint, or Whipped cream — those are Plankton. The trench answer is Spray-on hair (+100), but only take it if you can spell it cold.
Trench spelling, only if you already know it: Spray-on hair +100
