“And anyway, it was the board I noticed first. - The board? - Yes. It’s an entire world of just 64 squares. I feel safe in it. I can control it, I can dominate it. And it’s predictable. So, if I get hurt, I only have myself to blame.”

[I.D.: An image of Beth Harmon (a white woman in her early 20s) from the show Queen’s Gambit. Her face and upper body are visible, she wears a blouse with a tie. She looks down and her look is concentrated on something. There’re square ornaments all over the image, resembling a checkerboard, some have a red tint to them. The image is mostly in black and white except for her hair which is red. The background behind her is light grey. End I.D.]
