Butter hidden in a shoe is one of the story objects featured in Plot Devices III in Daily Orbs. It appears together with Scrabble tiles, and the puzzle asks you to match each book to two objects from its story. Use the two objects as a combined clue rather than treating the butter as a separate puzzle or collectible.

How to Use This Clue

The entry you are looking for is “Scrabble tiles · butter hidden in a shoe.” Both objects belong to the same displayed pair, so your task is to identify the book that contains both.

The shoe is part of the clue’s wording: the object is not simply butter, but butter hidden in a shoe. Keep that detail in mind when comparing the pair with the available books. A possible association with Scrabble alone does not establish the match; the book also needs to account for the second object.

Step-by-Step Walkthrough

1. Open Plot Devices III.
   Confirm that you are working on the book-and-object matching puzzle. Its instruction is: “Match each book to two objects from its story.”

2. Find the complete object-pair entry.
   Look for “Scrabble tiles · butter hidden in a shoe.” Treat this as one matching entry containing two story objects, not as two unrelated entries.

3. Compare both objects with the book choices.
   Use Scrabble tiles as one recognition cue and butter hidden in a shoe as the other. If a book comes to mind from one object, check whether you can also connect it to the other before committing to that match.

4. Keep uncertain matches provisional.
   The supplied evidence confirms the object pair but does not explicitly identify its corresponding book. It therefore supports finding and interpreting this entry, but not a verified book-title answer.

5. Use the puzzle’s answer option if you need confirmation.
   The source shows a Reveal Answers control. If you cannot confidently connect both objects to a book, that is the available on-page option for checking answers; the excerpt does not show the revealed result for this pair. [src-742506b2d1]

Tips for Recognizing the Entry

Preserve the full wording

When reviewing the clue, retain the phrase “hidden in a shoe.” Reducing it to “butter” removes a distinguishing detail from the confirmed entry. Likewise, keep the pairing with Scrabble tiles: the puzzle’s stated task is to connect a book with two objects, not just one.

Keep neighboring entries separate

The source lists “Golden ticket · glass elevator” immediately before this pair and “Scratched windowsill · locket holding two men's hair” immediately after it. Those are separate object-pair entries, not additional objects belonging to the butter clue. If you are scanning the list quickly, use the complete wording of the target entry to avoid mixing adjacent rows. [src-742506b2d1]

What Is Verified

The confirmed information establishes where this item appears, its exact paired entry, and the matching task it serves. It does not establish a separate item-acquisition process, an inventory use, a reward, or the correct book-title match.

For this entry, the practical goal is therefore to locate the pair in Plot Devices III, consider both objects together, and verify the book match within the puzzle rather than rely on an unsupported answer.
