Helpful Hints
- This clue's indicators are 'mismatch', 'after', and 'swiping'. One of these is a deletion indicator suggesting that we should remove some fodder from some other fodder. Another is an anagram indicator - some fodder is out of sorts and its letters will mix. And 'after' really functions here to indicate an order of operations - apply one technique 'after' the other.
- This clue's fodder is 'Tinder' and 'right'. We'll need to find a short substitute for one of these and use it with the letters of the other to construct our answer, as guided by the clue's indicator(s).
- Our definition here is 'Abort!', and our answer will be another way of saying that.
