@RichHartley19671 I agree. Or that because Nelson played "angle" Agnes, knowing she couldn't just switch words in the middle of the game, also played "angle". She looks a bit befuddled when Nelson gives clues for angle. And then for some reason Ludden says "Look at your word again. It's alright he knew what he was saying."

I thought the word was ANGEL---those halo-wearing winged people in heaven.

@RichHartley19671 exactly right. They were all playing the word "angle" but the technician put up the word "angel."

I don't think that Allen Ludden played the incorrect word. Notice that Barry Nelson gave for his clue the prefix "tri-" for "triangle," and in similar vein, Agnes Moorehead gave the clue "geometric." That would mean that each one of them misread his word in the clue packet--maybe one of them might misread it, but both of them at the same time? I think whoever gave the clue to the audience was the one who mistook "angle" for "angel."
