redux (ri-DUKS) adjective
Brought back; revisited.
[From Latin re- (again) + dux (leader), from ducere (to lead). Ultimately from Indo-European root deuk- (to lead) that led to other words such asduke, conduct, educate, duct, wanton, and tug.]
"The nightmare, redux. Once again Eddie Guardado was an out away from a save. Once again, he couldn't get it done."
