Explanation:

The phrase "in a nutshell" is an idiom. Idioms are expressions that have a meaning different from the literal meaning of the words. In the context of the sentence "I'm in a hurry, so tell me in a nutshell what happened at the city council meeting", it implies giving a concise summary. "Without help" is not related to the idiom's meaning. "Something in an acorn" is a literal misinterpretation. "In a few words" aligns with the idiom's meaning of being concise.
