33a. 'Get free from former partner needled about endless peculiar habit.' (9). e - t - i - a - e.
I've got 'extricate', which meets the definition 'Get free from'.
'Ex' is 'former partner'; 'irate ' is there for 'needled', and 'tic' for 'peculiar habit', but I can't see the parsing.
Could one of the illuminati out there shed some light for me?
