The common phrase "Pull a fast one" means to trick or deceive someone. "One on" doesn't work — the phrase is "pull a fast ONE" where ONE is a single word. The blank is filled by ONE, but that's only 3 letters. Wait — re-reading: the answer is 5 letters. The phrase is "pull a fast one on" someone, but the blank after "fast ___" would be "ONE ON" — however that's two words. The answer must be ONEON as a 5-letter fill for the crossword entry representing the phrase "pull a fast one on."
