The problem is that I committed the ultimate crime for a TD, ruling
from memory.  North and West need to pass for one round only, with
their partner's exposed card(s) UI to them, but AI to the opponents.

The penultimate crime for a TD is failing to keep a straight face
when explaining to declarer the options for 13 penalty cards.
