Morning, everyone.

Please can anyone help with these?

2d: Ruin without a king - one departs with authority usurped (9)
DETHRONED? I understand the definition, but how does it parse?

18a: Workers together run in short jacket (5)
I have TUNIC. "Workers together" could be TUC, but how does the NI fit in?

DE (a) TH ruin without a
R king
ONE
D departs

Thank you. DEATH for RUIN is a new one on me. No wonder I struggled (not to mention the deletions...)

Hi I’m stuck on 28ac: One word and all hell’s let loose - someone must pay! (5,4,4) I have S-A-S,-I-D,-O-L
Any additional clues very much welcomed! I’m not even sure what I’m solving for …..

What answer do you have for 18d (which gives you the initial S)?

And what do you have for 5d (which gives you the D)? In both cases I have different letters in those spaces.

I have tootsie

I have intentioned

I think the s is wrong in 28a. As is tootsie. I have it as a metric foot. I can gift both answers if wanted
