Contract:
7♠ by East
Lead:
♣10
East bids a quiet 1♠ over partner's 1♥. Opener's raise to 4♠ indicates a very strong hand, since responder has shown only 6 points. Even with just a single key card, East is interested in a spade slam and uses RKCB. The 5♣ response shows one or four key cards, but East knows it must be four aces, and bids the grand slam in spades.
