    Reveal: The grid contains 5 non-numerical words for quantities: 30A BRACE designates 2, 8D TRIO =3, 34A DECADE =10, 27A DOZEN =12, 17A SCORE =20. If you go to the corresponding numbered squares in the grid it spells GROSS.

      Well, I found 4/5, but didn't see anything related to a pair, duo, couple, or other twosome... unless TON = 2K pounds? I still like the idea and was able to solve. ;) Thanks, Lars.

        Woah. I did 3 (trio) * 2000 (ton) * 20 (score) * 12 (dozen) * 10 (decade) = 14,400,000 which is equal to exactly 100,000 grosses. A disgusting amount of grosses, to be sure.
        That's an absolutely wild coincidence.
