3 encounters within 5 D&D campaigns I'm considering running

Time to narrow!

    2. The team is questioned by the authorities
    3. The team attends an assembly the day after the murder

    1. Each player wakes up and starts to make their way to work
    2. The party locates the sleeping town healers and attempt to wake them
    3. The team faces nightfall and the choice of whether to rest
  3. A town's zoo has escaped. Can the party return all of the creatures and figure out what happened in the first place?
    1. Talking with a small child who has adopted one of the escaped animals and loves it dearly
    2. A horse-like creature is loose at the hospital
    3. Someone approaches the party to offer a high price for a certain animal
  4. A new queen fears being overthrown by her younger brother. She hires the adventurers to help quell a coup.
    1. The team must go to a pub friendly to the queen's brother
    2. The team attends a tournament in honor of the queen hosted by the brother
    3. The team must investigate the brother's chambers
  5. The team enters a baking competition to win coveted jobs in the palace.
    1. The team must make a patriotic dessert for a panel of three judges to make it through round one
    2. The team must make a cookie display for a panel of five judges in the shape of the royal couple to make it through round two
    3. The team must make an entirely new dessert for a panel of the previous judges as well as all eliminated contestants to win
