move (a railway train) from one track to another
word or signal (as in a play to prompt another actor's speech or entrance)

The correct answer is C because 'cue' in theater means a signal, word, or action that prompts an actor's speech, entrance, or performance. Option A means to exonerate (clear from blame), Option B refers to switching railroad tracks, and Option D means slander (defamation). Actors wait for their cue to speak or move.
