Does anyone else think "hoe" is actually a valid answer there, though? It's hard to tell from Ken's facial expression whether he "purposefully answered incorrectly" or just found himself amused at the situation.


Hoe is not a valid answer because the other word you are looking for is "ho" which is a shortened form of "whore".

Rake, on the other hand, is a homonym.
