The blanks in each sentence are filled with a 3-letter, a 4-letter, and a 5-letter word. The 4-letter and 5-letter words are in alphabetical order across the sentences; the 3-letter words are not. Match the words up in triples so that each word contains one more letter than the last (for example, LIP, PAIL, PLAIN). For extraction, order the triples based on the order the 3-letter words appeared in the puzzle.

LIP PAIL PLAIN
TEA EATS WASTE
