Partner opens a Weak 2-bid and catches you with a blockbuster. The only thing you want to know about his hand now is how many Aces he has. So you bid 4NT.
Partner answers 5. What do you bid?

That makes it simple, with 2 Aces you bid a confident 6.
If he had 1 Ace you would have bid an also confident 5.
If he had zero Aces you would have been in a spot of trouble.
And if he had 3 Aces you would have asked him how he could open a Weak-2 with that many points.
