Contract:
5♠ by South
North has a strong hand with support for partner's spades, so needs to change suit first and bid the major suit game on the second round. Because she has no other 4-card suit, she bids her best minor.
When South gets the news on the second round, she thinks a slam will make if partner has both missing aces. Alas, they end in 5♠.
