Ah ha!  A keeper of the Royal Anecdotes.....
For some reason this reminds me of an old Sesame Street skit where Ernie was
a caveman king (or maybe he was a medieval king, I forget).  Anyway, they
were doing something and they got stuck/confused and didn't know how to
continue.  Ernie proclaimed, "Call in the Royal Smart Person!", and in came
the Royal Smart Person.
Anyone else remember that one?

Yah -- they were cavemen, and they couldn't figure out how to leave the cave.
The large wooden door leading out is large and quite conspicuous right behind
them...  As I recall, it wasn't very flattering towards royalty.  :-,
