Silly me, I just get mixed up sometimes! Like, for instance, when I'm talking to people. You know how it goes, when you mean to say one thing, but you actually say another?
But then of course, I went and got more mixed up when I accidentally scrambled up all the Column B entries, as well as all the Column C entries. So now they no longer line up to Column A correctly. It's just not my day.
Hey, maybe you can help! Can you match up the appropriate item from Column B and from Column C with each scenario from Column A? If you do, you will discover an object that, while not required to find this cache could still be somewhat useful. Enter that object (omitting all punctuation and spaces) into the checker. Thanks for straightening me out!

Column A: What I intended to say

Column B: What I actually said
