Select the most appropriate idiom that can substitute the underlined segment in the given sentence: Leela was in class when the big fight happened. So, if you want to know the details, you should ask her, you will get the truth **given by somebody who is directly involved and therefore likely to be accurate.**

Question

Accepted Answer

The phrase 'straight from the horse’s mouth' means getting information directly from the source or someone who is directly involved, which ensures the information is accurate. In the sentence, Leela was present during the fight, so asking her means getting the truth directly from someone involved. The other options do not fit the context: 'with kid gloves' means treating someone gently, 'shooting off the cuff' means speaking without preparation, and 'calling a spade a spade' means speaking frankly or bluntly.
