"Very interested in something" answer
The answer for Sunday's puzzle is:
KEEN
The rest of the ladder at the top of the page stays hidden until you tap a rung, so you can check this word without giving away the others.
Why KEEN fits
If you've already solved TEEN, change its first letter from T to K. The top word, KEEP, unlocks once the middle rungs are in order, and it differs from KEEN only in the fourth letter, P instead of N.
