Trimarian Court Bingo

The Court Herald mispronounces somebody's name. The Crown gives out no awards with the word "Argent" in their names. Royal Retainer picks his or her nose. Somebody drops the Sword of State. Female retainer wearing a dress is holding a spear.
Someone who kneels before the Thrones really should have been wearing underwear. The Crown gives three or more awards to their own retainers and/or household. Every single Herald comes up to "elevate" one of their members for passing a test. The Court Herald announces somebody whose name is a bad pun. King Odo says that someone "rocks".
Court is more than one hour late. Person called before the Crown has to be coaxed to come forward far enough to kneel on the pillows. FREE SPACE Audible laughter at an inappropriate time from the naughty Peers standing in the back. The Order of the White Scarf hold a faux Knighting ceremony.
Clothing fashions are visibly influenced by a recent movie. Earl Benen disrupts court with his madcap hijinks. Somebody makes a completely inaudible presentation to the Crown. Somebody does court schtick which is apparently supposed to be funny... but it isn't. The Queen has a triskele somewhere on her garb.
Yet another guild is formed with great pomp and circumstance. The Crown calls someone up to give them an award, and starts with "You've been bad..." Yet another Kingdom office changes hands. Two Peers take a joint Associate. Somebody says "Busted!" to the recipient of an award.

Instructions: Pay attention in court! If you see or hear something described in one of the boxes, mark off that box. If you mark off five boxes in a row (horizontally, vertically or diagonally -- true diagonal, not "sort of" diagonal), jump up and shout "Bingo!" (and pray that the Crown has a sense of humor).
