      Fun one! Correctly inferred, but didn’t quite get first two letters of 4a - can someone explain?

        Maybe a second would be clearer without messing up the surface reading.

          Sure: mo can be short for moment which is a second (as in a short time. I try to only use abbreviations I would use in real life or have at least come across, but this one does seem like a stretch, though used in cryptics fairly regularly.
