Very bizarre AP test-taking problem that could screw me

When I took my BC Calculus exam last week, apparently you were supposed to take the two free-response packets (the questions, not the answer sheets) from your table and give them to the proctor at the front of the room. Here’s the problem, we were in a huge ****ing room with 100-200 kids, and it was very loud, and I couldn’t hear those directions. So what happened? I LEFT THE FREE RESPONSE PACKETS AT MY TABLE and took up my answer sheets. I gave my answer sheets to the AP coordinator who took them with no hesitation and without asking me “where are your free response packets”?

Fast forward to a few days later: I get a call from my school saying they found one of my free response packets in the trash and they can’t find the other one. I get accused and am told to “find it”. Find it?? IT WAS *ING THROWN AWAY MOST LIKELY. Now my coordinator has to file a report of irregularity. Could this wind up in my scores being canceled? Aren’t free-response questions released within 48 hours anyways? I really want to blame this on the school and the environment the test was being taken in. If they give me * for this I’m calling the administration out.
