    Um... I may be dumb but I don't see the "disappearing" clues.

      As I understood it, the idea is that everything makes more sense if you prepend "act" to each clue.

        Thanks for commenting! There are 10 clues with a missing "act" at the beginning. The ones I built the puzzle around are "[act] strangely" (DRAWSTARES), "[act] responsibly" (BEANADULT), "[act] guilty or indecisive" (HEMANDHAW), and "[act] natural" (PLAYITCOOL). I was on the fence when making it whether to star the clues or not, and your comments and other feedback from friends made me realize the theme isn't clear enough without using asterisks, so I added them. Thanks! :)

      For 17A, the clue is adjectival, but the answer is a verb. Maybe make the clue "Disdain" or something like that?
      Thanks for the fun puzzle!
