Problem

I figured out that the answers to the minor questions are-

  1. METAL

  2. MOUTH

  3. RABBIT

  4. ISLAND

And therefore that the letters for the main question are

MELMHAITISD.

What is the final answer?

  • $\begingroup$ @DanRussell A link is required to avoid this puzzle getting deleted for plagiarism. I just edited it back in but made it sound less like advertising. $\endgroup$ Nov 20, 2016 at 16:15

The answer is

MISLAID THEM

These two words form an anagram of "MELMHAITISD", and they also complete the joke in the cartoon in a meaningful and humorous way.
