That word was in the episode title of tonight's episode of Killing Eve (The Hungry Caterpillar). Just now, I was trying to think of how to spell the word, and couldn't figure it out, even though I'm quite familiar with the word. That's unusual for me. All of the spellings I tried looked wrong to me, and they were wrong.
cater cater
pillar pillar
catepillar
Dang. I was trying to spell it right, and spelled it wrong again, in spite of myself!
caterpillar!
(How many words have silent R's in the middle like that?)
