No, then it would read "FeignING death...", instead of "To feign..."

Because of the picture, I knew what you wanted for Thanksgiving dessert. What about pecan pie though? It, too, is a common dessert at Thanksgiving... especially in the South.

possum and opossum are two different animals. Both are marsupials, but one is from Australia, and the other is north american.

The correct spelling IS opossum. The "o" is silent. The Australian possum is a different animal and it does not play dead.

I think that pecan pie should be accepted for the first one because it is also a alliterative desert.

Play possum must be an American phrase as I've not heard it before. I would have been guessing for a long time before I got that.

If a 'possum becomes frightened it sometimes stops and pretends to be dead. Apparently the ones around our house are not afraid of us, because they seldom do it. They just turn and run.

All I could think of was Pigsty for Charlie Brown. Tried random P names before in case he had a proper name that I just didn't know. I don't know Charlie Brown all that well, and I thought at the end that maybe Peppermint Patty was messy as opposed to dirty... 🤷
