Normal sudoku rules apply.
Adjacent digits along green lines differ by at least 5.
Cells separated by a dot contain digits that differ by the amount shown.
One each of the twelve standard pentominoes (no repeats by rotation or reflection) must be placed into the grid. Each pentomino touches exactly two "difference" dots and no pentomino enters a cell with a green line.
The arrangement of pentominoes must be deduced.
Once placed, each pentomino behaves like a 5-cell killer cage: digits do not repeat and must sum to the value listed in one of the pentomino's cells.

Fun puzzle! I was confused whether the pentominos are allowed to overlap each other, but then I guessed probably not which was correct, right?
--
81 cells in the grid, less the 21 cells covered by green (whisper) lines leaves 60 cells, to be covered by 12 pentominoes each covering 5 cells.
