Without knowing more about it it would be hard to assign blame.
Not really.
From what I see, the armourer and Baldwin are the one's responsible.
Yep.
But betting it's the armourer who gets hung out to dry, not Baldwin. Seeing how Baldwin is an insufferable know-it-all in every other aspect of his life, I would bet he is the one most responsible.
Maybe he and his wife will flee to Spain.
