We need something that is twisted by definition. Thus, the choice is E, "skein" that is used for wood, as an example: a skein of wool.

Option E
Even if you don't know the meaning of Option E; We can straightaway Eliminate Option A & Option B
Reject Option C as Mass is not at all Logical / sensical fit
Reject Option D as Plethora - Excess of anything / Collection of things (Eg - Plethora of Stars were present there ) ; A collection of thought can't be twisted & disentangled.

The question is a bit tricky as "line of thought" is an actual phrase, meaning 'a particular way of thinking characteristic of a certain group;' a twisted 'line of thought' would be akin to a twisted line of logic. Skein is still the better answer.
