Trimarian Court Bingo

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

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).

The Quarter - None asked nor given!
