rigmarole

After all the rigmarole, they found what any pediatrician already knew: the MMR causes fever.

Of course, that rigmarole about the cardinal is all nonsense.

But it came back to him afterward, and seemed to bear out the Countess's rigmarole.

I am sure that no one who has seen all this radical rigmarole, as I have had occasion to see it, can be deceived by it.

It's a rigmarole because the boy is a Rigmarole and we've come to Rigmarole Town.

But now, what confused rigmarole are you bringing to my ears?
