Looks like Photobucket is currently undergoing maintenance, so you can imagine an image here until I can actually upload it. The text spoiler still has the current grid in the meantime.

We always get an extra guess a turn, so it would not be good to say that there are two agents related to that clue unless there actually was.
And trying to say that we were correct that he meant one of those two, we already were at that point and there's not more info to guess one now than when we didn't before.
Essentially my rationale is that if we were far from correct in our speculation about the fourth "Lear" word then polaritie would be more likely to try and stretch to come up with a three or four clue to prevent us from falling behind. Because our spymaster was content using a 2 clue it suggests confidence that we are likely to get the fourth Lear word also.
Olive is a slam dunk. I'd do the contact but I'm having trouble with tags on my phone.
Contact - Olive I'm halfway around the world and still know such a thing exists.
We were pretty overt that we got it down to Lead or Film with the first clue, and more importantly why we didn't take the shot. I mean, the spymaster can give us the last clue with <word - infinite>, letting us guess the last clues + take both Film and Lead. So shouldn't need to stretch.
Back to Garden. Ground is probably the best 2nd guess. The only other thing I can come up with is 'Track' - as in they are both words for outdoor, vegetation-filled environments. Maybe 'circle', because I've yet to see a garden that wasn't full of spheres. But both of those have easier clues.
Yeah, definitely understand that logic Teucrian, I just don't agree that it was intended with this clue. You can't always get or want 3-4 clues, and we have a fine start.
The pressure isn't really there, because right now we have a 50/50 for the Lear agent and it's not going anywhere. It can only get better by one of them being picked by the enemy, or a future clue combining with it.
Agreed for pirate..but the rest....wow...I can think of a few but they are all pretty stretching...
Assuming hes thinking of the recent pirates movies (Johnny Depp), maybe hes hoping we will link pirate with some other words like Film or maybe pegleg as a shape is a Circle.
The more i think on it, the more i think circle is the second one. My guesses are pirate, then circle. will wait for @discrider to chip in.

Let's try Bat then.
Blue operatives may make up to three more guesses.
Blue operatives may make up to two more guesses.
Looks like Azith has the casting vote.
That's probably reasonable

The fact that its a two clue leads me to believe that we were right about either lead or film and polar wants us to guess that.
And trying to say that we were correct that he meant one of those two, we already were at that point and there's not more info to guess one now than when we didn't before.

Red team has 2 guesses remaining.
GROUND is a Blue Agent!
@CesareB to provide a clue for the Blue Team.
The trap we so cleverly hid on the ground...

I'm clueless on the second peg-leg word. They make a tapping noise when you walk? They make you walk in a circle?
Blue team has 2 guesses remaining.
We can do lawyer first tho.
PiRATe was probably the 4th rat clue, although I discounted that as invalid.
I reckon we go for Tap and then pass.
Circle doesn't make any sense to me for peg-leg.
