So here's a fun fact about me: I have never once, in my entire life, correctly guessed the "lie" in an icebreaker game. Not once. I am apparently a terrible judge of my own deception, which — considering I build puzzles designed to mislead people on purpose — is a little embarrassing. Anyway, this puzzle has three theme answers, and one of them isn't quite what it seems. Good luck. Thanks to Priya and Noah for test solving, and to my downstairs neighbor for not complaining about my 1 a.m. pacing while I workshopped 34-Across.
