Problem 2 resolved

I led the club ace. Dummy came down with something like:

Qxx
KJxx
Q9x
QJx

Partner played the lowest outstanding club spot (playing upside down) and I lauded myself for not playing a heart and allowing declarer to ruff and draw trumps. So I played another club to partner's king... and declarer ruffed, making 4S by discarding a heart on dummy's good club and eventually losing two diamond tricks.

Did partner has 3343? 2353? I would expect partner to pass the redouble, which should not be for penalty.

3343. We agreed afterwards that his bid was insane. I guess that "ruins" the attempt to result the problem.
