Explanation
The answer to the Out of place is QUEER.
The word "QUEER" can mean "out of place" in a figurative sense, as it originally denoted something strange or unusual, which is often perceived as being "out of place" or not fitting in with its surroundings. Historically, "queer" was used to describe something that was odd or not conforming to the expected norms.
