Lyrics
Pick up to six lines to make a card.
FREDDIE
This is the one situation I wanted most to avoid
ANATOLY
Then what on earth are you doing?
You could be better employed
FREDDIE
No, please hear me out
I think I can help
ANATOLY
If it's about Florence, I'm warning you—
FREDDIE
No, it's not about her
Your wife or your kids
Or money or Walter or Molokov
ANATOLY
What the hell is it?
FREDDIE
I want to talk chess
ANATOLY
Chess?
FREDDIE
Something I've noticed in Viigand
It's his King's Indian Defense
One of the lines he's been trying
Doesn't completely make sense
ANATOLY
Why? I don't understand
FREDDIE
I told you his King's Indian—
ANATOLY
No, I don't understand why you're helping me
FREDDIE
Because I love chess
Does nobody else?
Jesus, sometimes I think I'm the only one
How can you let mediocrity win?
ANATOLY
What about Florence's father?
My wife and my children?
FREDDIE
You've let them all down already
Win or betray yourself too
You don't want those shits
To get what they want
ANATOLY
They'll get what they want
They always do
FREDDIE
No, they won't if you win
Be true to the game
The one thing you know you can count upon
ANATOLY
What about Florence?
FREDDIE
The one thing is chess
ANATOLY
Chess
FREDDIE, spoken
How can you let mediocrity win?
You have one chance left
Win for chess
You were five one up
Now it's five all
Get a grip
