Guilty as charged

North-South have reached a very poor contract. As so often, each of the two players considers that his partner is responsible for the accident. And you, what do you think?

Problem #1

The facts :

Our two friends went down in 1 No-Trump and realized that they could have easily made 2 Hearts, without having too many regrets when their opponents produced the same result.
