    Loved it. The TOE clue was on another level, definitely my favorite of them all though GASLIGHT was great too, and I really liked the inclusion of GATEKEEP. 6D has the kind of clue that feels "?" worthy but the "?" would definitely spoil the misdirection there. My only suggestion would be to change "owes" to "owing" in the 29A clue (with "owes", it looks like IS INDEBTED should be the answer).

        Their loss - that was a fun, interesting, challenging puzzle. 1A was brilliant, and though I'd never heard of 63A in that context, it makes perfect sense. I finished with a dumb typo (PEEKED instead of PEEPED), but that's on me.
