Declarer finessed the Queen losing to East a King. The reflex defense would have been to return a club hoping to promote a Trump trick. However East elected to take some time to consider the situation. Declarer had to know West a Lead was probably a Singleton so Why did he not Rise with the Ace of clubs obviously he was prepared for a club continuation. So East cast around for More Fertile Fields.

With the club suit set up for discards Declarer would simply Rise with the Ace Cross to the Ace of Spades then return to hand by ruffing a dub High As he would have done with 4 club return. After drawing Trumps Declarer would then be ask to return to Dummy with a Diamond to take All the discard necessary to collect 12 tricks.
