How to build DEBRIEFED from the tiles

In 7 Little Words you don't type the answer — you assemble it from the puzzle's shared tile bank, and every tile is used exactly once across all seven answers. Puzzle 2's tiles for October 4, 2026 are:

SI · MP · LY · SPA · RKS · NEV · ERM · IND · GO · RIL · LA · VER · TEX · ENC · IP · HE · RED · DEB · RIE · FED

DEBRIEFED is built by combining the tiles DEB · RIE · FED in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in DEBRIEFED early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
