I'm not sure how the final answer relates to clue #1, but if you concentrate on the other five, you'll probably get it.

Did someone solve this one? What theme could it possibly have?

It was a little tricky today. I had to play through a few times to get all the answers, and the theme took a little thinking as well.

Yeah, I think the keywords were trickier than the theme today. What I love about these is that you sit there thinking there is nothing that fits all the words, then you have that, "Aha!" moment when everything fits.
