Anatoly: [Spoken] What are you doing here? Frederick: This is the one situation, I wanted most to avoid. Anatoly: Then what on earth are you doing? You could be better employed. Frederick: No, please hear me out. I think I can help. Anatoly: If it is about Florence, I am warning you! Frederick: No, it is not about her, your wife or your kids; Or money, or Walter, or Molokov. Anatoly: What the hell is it? Frederick: I want to talk chess! Anatoly: [Spoken] Chess? Frederick: Something I've noticed in Viigand, It is his King's Indian Defense. One of the lines he's been trying, Doesn't completely make sense. Anatoly: I--I don't understand. Frederick: I told you, his King's Indian-- Anatoly: No, I don't understand why you are helping me. Frederick: Because I love chess. Does nobody else? Jesus! Sometimes I think I am the only one. How can you let mediocrity win? Anatoly: What about Florence's father? My wife and my children? Frederick: 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. Frederick: 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? Frederick: The one thing is chess! Anatoly: [Spoken] Chess? Frederick: [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!
