All four groups

How today's puzzle plays

Yellow — INSTRUCT: COACH, DIRECT, GUIDE, TRAIN.

Green — PARTS OF A WHISTLING KETTLE: HANDLE, LID, SPOUT, WHISTLE.

Blue — UNDERCOVER OPERATIVE: ASSET, MOLE, PLANT, SLEEPER.

Purple — THINGS THAT APPEAR AT THE END: CABOOSE, DECEMBER, DESSERT, EPILOGUE.

Purple groups often depend on how a word is spelled or what it completes, so read the leftovers as letters, not meanings.
