See below for an explanation of the clues. 

clue #1

"Red is the color of a leaf in autumn."

"Yeah, but it's spring now."

"So?"

"It's just...fine. Whatever. Scratch that."

"Red is the color of velvet."

"Okay...but velvet also comes in other colors." 

"Are you going to question every line?"

"No, I'm done. Go ahead."

"Yellow is the color of a chic. 'Peep peep'...so soft and squishy.

Yellow is also the color of the sun dipping down over the horizon.

Green is the color of...hm...eggs!"

"Who are you? Dr. Suess?!"

"You said you were going to stop." 

"Sorry."

"Blue is the color of water."

"No it's not! Water only appears blue because it's reflecting the sky. Water takes on the color of whatever it reflects or absorbs."

"OMG, fine! Forget that one.

Blue is a color of a robins egg."

"Nice poem."


This is the zip code clue.

Each color that is mentioned and not dismissed is a food dye.

Red 3 has been banned so that's the first dismissal.

Red 40 for red velvet.

Yellow 5 for peeps.

Yellow 6 is named "Sunset"

Green 3 for the eggs.

Blue 1 is dismissed in the clue.

Blue 2 are Robins Eggs (the Easter treat).

clue #4

This hunt is truly a tale of airplanes and razor-teethed aquatic predators.

Find me tucked between Minnesota and Colorado on the table. 

No, that can't be right.
