A common use of this phrase would be, "Where did you come from?"
The farmer's market.
the term "in cahoots' comes from the legal term 'incahoots' meaning an act of conspiring , I am learning about this in my CJ1101 (Criminal Justice) Course, and (am in class right now lol - history class) dont have my notes on my person at this moment so i'm really drawing off memory, but despite the spelling being possibly slightly off the information remains true - the term 'in cahoots' comes from the legal term referring to the conspiring against (person or person) or an act of conspiracy towards an individual or organization. Hope this helps !-GooN
