  5. 12A
    Usical instrument
  6. 14A
    Grey and Squirrel, misspelled [the second one is a Magic card from a joke set and the first one was a British prime minister, which you probably didn't know]
  7. 15A
    With 21- and 28-Across, title of the Frisco crossword that inspired this one

    Part of the leg, phonetically
  16. 33A

  2. 2D
    Poisonly oakly resultly, likelilily
  3. 3D
    Dirty to difficult [imagine I'm an AI looking at this entry autofill suggested, and thought "to" was only used in English for spectrums like "A to Z," but also had a database of synonyms. Make sense yet?]
