To Ken - as in "to so-and-so" as is said when you're drinking a toast to him to her.

Thank you very much loge and tatters.
Could I please ask for parsing as to why 29ac "Left the room scratched?"
has to be RETIRED?

I think it's a double meaning - scratch means to withdraw/retire from a competition and you retire from a room when you leave it.
