1
00:00:13,666 --> 00:00:15,626
You should have seen yourself.
2
00:00:16,625 --> 00:00:19,729
Up on that stool,
floating around up there,
3
00:00:20,500 --> 00:00:22,963
Deardorff just hollering at you.
4
00:00:23,541 --> 00:00:24,631
It felt funny.
5
00:00:24,708 --> 00:00:25,708
Shit.
6
00:00:26,458 --> 00:00:27,668
I bet it felt good.
7
00:00:30,583 --> 00:00:31,963
What you gonna do at night?
8
00:00:33,458 --> 00:00:36,918
I'm gonna stay awake as long
as I can, reading my book,
9
00:00:37,791 --> 00:00:39,631
learning the Sicilian Defense.
10
00:00:42,833 --> 00:00:45,383
There's 57 pages about it in the book,
11
00:00:45,458 --> 00:00:48,788
with 170 lines stemming from P to QB4.
12
00:00:50,583 --> 00:00:53,583
I'm gonna memorize them and
play through them all in my mind.
13
00:00:54,791 --> 00:00:55,831
Poor mind.
14
00:00:57,208 --> 00:00:59,418
Ladies, don't run!
15
00:00:59,500 --> 00:01:00,790
No shoving!
16
00:01:22,083 --> 00:01:23,213
Mr. Shaibel?
17
00:01:28,416 --> 00:01:30,076
They won't let me play anymore.
18
00:01:33,083 --> 00:01:34,187
I'm being punished.
19
00:01:36,875 --> 00:01:38,035
Please...
20
00:01:39,583 --> 00:01:40,713
can you help me?
21
00:01:50,041 --> 00:01:51,831
I wish I could play more with you.
22
00:02:11,958 --> 00:02:13,958
For crying out loud,
what you still doing in bed?
23
00:02:14,041 --> 00:02:15,461
You're gonna miss breakfast.
24
00:02:41,666 --> 00:02:42,666
Morning, cracker.
25
00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,705
You don't wanna miss another
delicious breakfast, do you?
26
00:02:52,708 --> 00:02:54,208
Been dreaming about it.
27
00:03:18,583 --> 00:03:20,003
Wonder who they're here for.

29
00:03:55,750 --> 00:03:56,820
Hi, Beth.
30
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:06,750
- Are you trying to piss her off?
- I had to take a shower.
31
00:04:06,833 --> 00:04:07,833
Go on in, then.
32
00:04:09,625 --> 00:04:10,625
Hold up.
33
00:04:17,458 --> 00:04:18,878
They seem like nice people.
34
00:04:27,458 --> 00:04:31,998
I'm told, Elizabeth, that you
turned 13 just last month.
35
00:04:32,083 --> 00:04:33,083
Actually, I'm fift...
36
00:04:35,625 --> 00:04:38,205
Yes, that's right, I'm 13.
37
00:04:39,583 --> 00:04:41,173
Such a wonderful age.
38
00:04:41,875 --> 00:04:44,535
Elizabeth has performed
well in all of her schoolwork.
39
00:04:44,625 --> 00:04:48,825
She is at the top of her class
in reading and arithmetic.
40
00:04:48,916 --> 00:04:50,076
That's very impressive.
41
00:04:50,875 --> 00:04:54,075
Beth is also a very strong student
in science and geography,
42
00:04:54,166 --> 00:04:57,376
and has been kindly assisting
Miss Lonsdale with chapel,
43
00:04:57,458 --> 00:04:59,128
for several years now.
44
00:04:59,208 --> 00:05:01,128
She is the model Methuen girl.
45
00:05:02,958 --> 00:05:04,038
I can see that.
46
00:05:06,666 --> 00:05:08,786
I will leave you three
to get acquainted.
47
00:05:21,041 --> 00:05:22,251
They call you Elizabeth?
48
00:05:24,375 --> 00:05:25,375
Or is it Betty?
49
00:05:41,708 --> 00:05:42,788
You should go pack.
50
00:05:59,250 --> 00:06:00,380
I can't find my book.
51
00:06:01,458 --> 00:06:04,458
Which book we talking about?
You read like a hundred of them.
52
00:06:05,125 --> 00:06:06,705
Modern Chess Openings.
53
00:06:06,791 --> 00:06:09,001
Hm. Beats the shit out of me.
54
00:06:11,041 --> 00:06:12,501
I left it right here.
55
00:06:14,041 --> 00:06:16,791
- You didn't see it, did you?
- Watch who you go accusing.
56
00:06:17,750 --> 00:06:19,540
I got no use for no book like that.
57
00:06:20,791 --> 00:06:22,381
Anyway, you don't need no book.
58
00:06:22,458 --> 00:06:26,578
Just say, "Yes, sir," and "Yes,
ma'am," and you'll do all right.
59
00:06:26,666 --> 00:06:30,246
Tell them you're grateful to be
in a Christian home like theirs.
60
00:06:31,541 --> 00:06:33,421
Maybe they'll put a TV in your room.
61
00:06:36,416 --> 00:06:37,416
Jolene?
62
00:06:38,625 --> 00:06:39,625
Hm?
63
00:06:42,916 --> 00:06:43,916
I'm sorry.
64
00:06:44,458 --> 00:06:45,458
About what?
65
00:06:47,208 --> 00:06:48,628
That you didn't get adopted.
66
00:06:53,041 --> 00:06:54,041
Shit.
67
00:06:55,125 --> 00:06:57,415
I make out just fine right here.
68
00:07:14,625 --> 00:07:16,165
Be a good girl, Elizabeth.
69
00:07:23,125 --> 00:07:24,495
Off we go!
70
00:07:45,625 --> 00:07:47,575
We're so glad to have an older child.
71
00:08:39,458 --> 00:08:40,458
Shall we?
72
00:08:57,875 --> 00:08:59,035
Home sweet home.
73
00:09:08,083 --> 00:09:10,003
Those are Rosa Bonheur prints.
74
00:09:12,583 --> 00:09:14,173
Not originals, of course.
75
00:09:17,791 --> 00:09:19,001
Do you like animals?
76
00:09:19,083 --> 00:09:20,293
I do, I love them.
77
00:09:20,375 --> 00:09:22,745
Allston is allergic to
most pet dander, though,
78
00:09:22,833 --> 00:09:24,873
so I'm not allowed to...
79
00:09:29,208 --> 00:09:31,248
I bet you'd like to see your room.
80
00:09:36,958 --> 00:09:40,378
This is the master bedroom,
where Allston and I sleep.
81
00:09:42,208 --> 00:09:44,828
Over here is the bathroom,
82
00:09:45,333 --> 00:09:47,883
and this is you.
83
00:10:02,208 --> 00:10:05,498
You have no idea how hard it is
to find good maple furniture.
84
00:10:05,583 --> 00:10:06,713
This is all mine?
85
00:10:07,583 --> 00:10:08,923
Of course it's all yours.
86
00:10:09,920 --> 00:10:11,060
The whole room?
87
00:10:11,083 --> 00:10:12,213
The whole room.
88
00:10:17,375 --> 00:10:18,375
All right.
89
00:10:19,583 --> 00:10:21,753
I will let you unpack
and get settled in.
90
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:25,000
Just give a holler if you need anything.
91
00:10:35,708 --> 00:10:36,828
Home sweet home.
92
00:10:48,083 --> 00:10:49,213
I don't understand.
93
00:10:49,708 --> 00:10:52,538
I don't know exactly what
there is to understand.
94
00:10:52,590 --> 00:10:54,436
Why can't they send someone else?
95
00:10:54,450 --> 00:10:55,789
It's only for two weeks.
96
00:10:55,791 --> 00:10:57,791
You've only been home for two days.
97
00:10:57,875 --> 00:11:00,705
Gives you some time to get
to know your new companion.
98
00:11:01,208 --> 00:11:02,368
I doubt there's much to know.
99
00:11:02,416 --> 00:11:04,626
Girl doesn't seem to have
a heck of a lot to say.
100
00:11:05,541 --> 00:11:07,211
Do you have to take the car?
101
00:11:07,500 --> 00:11:09,460
How am I supposed to get
around without a car?
102
00:11:09,541 --> 00:11:11,381
I don't know, you could rent one.
103
00:11:11,458 --> 00:11:14,538
And eat up half my commissions?
You're a terrible driver anyway.
104
00:11:15,041 --> 00:11:16,461
It's not that far into town.
105
00:11:16,958 --> 00:11:19,708
Remember what the doctor said.
Some exercise will do you good.
106
00:11:47,250 --> 00:11:48,330
It's early, dear.
107
00:11:49,083 --> 00:11:51,293
You don't have to be up
for another hour yet.
108
00:11:53,875 --> 00:11:56,745
Must be all the excitement about
your first day of school.
109
00:12:00,333 --> 00:12:01,923
Where did Mr. Wheatley go?
110
00:12:03,500 --> 00:12:04,580
Business trip.
111
00:12:05,500 --> 00:12:08,380
Poor man has to travel quite
a bit these days, but...
112
00:12:08,458 --> 00:12:09,998
as he likes to remind me, it...
113
00:12:11,041 --> 00:12:12,671
keeps the roof over our heads.
114
00:12:21,250 --> 00:12:23,630
Please stop gawking, dear,
you're making me nervous.
115
00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:33,000
You're very good.
116
00:12:35,291 --> 00:12:37,001
This was Grandmother June's piano.
117
00:12:38,375 --> 00:12:40,455
I've played since I
was younger than you.
118
00:12:42,166 --> 00:12:44,996
I'd always had it in my mind to
one day play in an orchestra.
119
00:12:45,916 --> 00:12:46,996
Probably still could.
120
00:12:47,083 --> 00:12:49,043
Mmm. As luck would have it,
121
00:12:49,125 --> 00:12:52,125
I've also always suffered from
a terrible case of stage fright,
122
00:12:52,875 --> 00:12:55,375
which does not bode well
for an aspiring performer.
123
00:12:56,958 --> 00:12:58,168
And then I got pregnant.
124
00:13:01,208 --> 00:13:02,208
You have a child?
125
00:13:04,958 --> 00:13:06,248
We did, yes.
126
00:13:14,166 --> 00:13:15,286
Are you hungry?
127
00:13:16,291 --> 00:13:17,791
We have a leftover casserole.
128
00:13:19,708 --> 00:13:20,878
Beth, dear.
129
00:13:24,166 --> 00:13:26,246
Are you sure you don't
want me to go with you?
130
00:13:27,375 --> 00:13:28,375
I'm okay.
131
00:13:29,583 --> 00:13:30,583
Okay.
132
00:14:15,583 --> 00:14:17,673
You should have seen that coach.
133
00:14:18,541 --> 00:14:20,921
Have you seen her hair and her shoes?
134
00:14:24,333 --> 00:14:25,333
Don't know.
135
00:14:28,020 --> 00:14:29,062
So drab.
136
00:14:29,083 --> 00:14:31,583
And brown laces with
brown shoes? I mean...
137
00:14:32,125 --> 00:14:34,415
Quiet, please! Let's start.
138
00:14:34,500 --> 00:14:37,670
This week, we will begin to
study the binomial theorem.
139
00:14:38,458 --> 00:14:40,378
Does anyone know what a binomial is?
140
00:14:41,875 --> 00:14:42,875
Anyone?
141
00:14:49,875 --> 00:14:50,915
Yes?
142
00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,750
- A binomial is a mathematical...
- Will you stand up, please?
143
00:15:00,083 --> 00:15:03,833
A binomial is a mathematical
expression containing two terms.
144
00:15:05,083 --> 00:15:06,963
X plus Y is a binomial.
145
00:15:08,140 --> 00:15:09,187
Very good.
146
00:15:09,208 --> 00:15:11,288
Let's turn to page 24.
147
00:15:11,375 --> 00:15:13,625
Great, another fucking brain.
148
00:15:19,666 --> 00:15:21,576
That's a good idea. Oh, my god.
149
00:16:08,583 --> 00:16:10,423
- Is there a school chess club?
- What?
150
00:16:11,166 --> 00:16:14,206
Is there a chess club
here at the school?
151
00:16:14,291 --> 00:16:15,291
Oh.
152
00:16:16,083 --> 00:16:17,083
Um...
153
00:16:17,833 --> 00:16:19,633
I don't think they have
anything like that.
154
00:16:27,666 --> 00:16:30,076
But a lot of the girls
belong to social clubs.
155
00:16:30,166 --> 00:16:31,456
Social clubs?
156
00:16:32,916 --> 00:16:34,376
There's the Apple Pi club,
157
00:16:35,166 --> 00:16:36,746
and the Sub Debs,
158
00:16:37,333 --> 00:16:40,173
- and Girls Around Town.
- Apple pie? They bake pies?
159
00:16:40,250 --> 00:16:43,830
No, Apple Pi. You know,
like the Greek letter.
160
00:16:45,250 --> 00:16:46,250
Oh.
161
00:16:47,000 --> 00:16:48,130
Are you in one of those?
162
00:16:49,833 --> 00:16:51,713
You have to be invited...
163
00:16:52,458 --> 00:16:53,458
to join.
164
00:16:59,750 --> 00:17:02,130
You could try out for
junior cheerleader.
165
00:17:11,791 --> 00:17:13,751
Shit.
166
00:17:23,750 --> 00:17:24,960
Hello, Mr. Wheatley.
167
00:17:26,541 --> 00:17:27,541
Oh.
168
00:17:28,291 --> 00:17:30,211
Hi... Beth.
169
00:17:30,291 --> 00:17:33,461
You're home! I didn't expect
you for another week.
170
00:17:33,541 --> 00:17:34,671
I'm only here for the night.
171
00:17:34,750 --> 00:17:37,420
They, uh... they just gave me
the whole Southwest, so...
172
00:17:39,125 --> 00:17:41,325
And a raise, I hope?
173
00:17:41,416 --> 00:17:42,626
Don't start.
174
00:17:43,291 --> 00:17:45,711
Yes, why don't you freshen
up, and I will start dinner?
175
00:17:45,791 --> 00:17:46,881
I'll take a beer.
176
00:17:48,041 --> 00:17:49,131
If there's any left.
177
00:17:53,333 --> 00:17:55,083
Doesn't she ever change clothes?
178
00:18:03,458 --> 00:18:05,498
I don't think he likes me very much.
179
00:18:05,583 --> 00:18:06,833
Quite the opposite.
180
00:18:07,625 --> 00:18:09,705
Adopting you was actually his idea.
181
00:18:11,583 --> 00:18:13,883
He's right, though.
You could use some new clothes.
182
00:18:24,083 --> 00:18:25,083
Sorry.
183
00:18:56,583 --> 00:18:57,673
Aha!
184
00:19:14,583 --> 00:19:15,673
They have chess sets.
185
00:19:18,083 --> 00:19:19,753
We can stop on the way back down.
186
00:19:36,875 --> 00:19:37,875
Oh...
187
00:19:40,166 --> 00:19:41,416
Let's find you a blouse.
188
00:19:45,166 --> 00:19:47,206
Well, don't you look lovely?
189
00:19:48,583 --> 00:19:50,293
The shoes are a little big.
190
00:19:51,291 --> 00:19:53,461
Room to grow, dear. Room to grow.
191
00:19:53,541 --> 00:19:54,711
Let's look for coats.
192
00:19:58,291 --> 00:20:00,081
Mmm. Lovely.
193
00:20:01,458 --> 00:20:04,328
Step over here so I can
see the fabric in the light.
194
00:20:08,916 --> 00:20:11,036
Yes, this will do nicely.
195
00:20:16,750 --> 00:20:18,630
Aren't we gonna look at the chess sets?
196
00:20:19,833 --> 00:20:21,213
Another time, dear.
197
00:20:21,291 --> 00:20:23,729
It's getting late, and
I'm getting hungry.
198
00:20:24,791 --> 00:20:27,062
- But...
- I'll give you 40 cents a week allowance.
199
00:20:28,333 --> 00:20:30,213
Save up and buy yourself a chess set.
200
00:20:31,000 --> 00:20:33,170
Saving is a good lesson
for a girl to learn.
201
00:21:07,708 --> 00:21:08,878
So bad!
202
00:21:24,250 --> 00:21:26,830
- Do you have any books on chess?
- Chess?
203
00:21:26,916 --> 00:21:28,376
Mm. I don't know for sure.
204
00:21:29,208 --> 00:21:31,578
If we have anything,
it'll be on the last row.
205
00:21:32,416 --> 00:21:33,456
Thank you.
206
00:21:33,541 --> 00:21:36,041
There might be an old biography
on José Capablanca.
207
00:21:39,208 --> 00:21:41,538
- Who?
- José Capablanca.
208
00:21:42,333 --> 00:21:45,633
He was a Grandmaster.
It was quite a long time ago now.
209
00:21:47,833 --> 00:21:49,083
What's a Grandmaster?
210
00:21:49,166 --> 00:21:50,536
A genius player.
211
00:22:36,625 --> 00:22:37,625
Okay, yeah.
212
00:22:38,250 --> 00:22:39,460
I see you, Harmon.
213
00:22:40,458 --> 00:22:41,628
It's those shoes.
214
00:22:42,458 --> 00:22:44,708
Did you get them at Ben
Snyder's or something?
215
00:22:46,291 --> 00:22:48,921
I wouldn't be caught
dead in Ben Snyder's.
216
00:22:57,625 --> 00:22:59,875
- How was school?
- Fun.
217
00:23:00,708 --> 00:23:01,708
Where are you going?
218
00:23:03,750 --> 00:23:05,790
I'm gonna replay some of
the matches in this book.
219
00:23:06,666 --> 00:23:08,826
- But you don't have a board.
- In my head.
220
00:23:09,666 --> 00:23:11,166
Good mental exercise.
221
00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,960
Well, some physical
exercise could do you good.
222
00:23:16,041 --> 00:23:20,131
Will you run over to Bradley's for me,
223
00:23:20,208 --> 00:23:22,498
and pick up three packs
of Chesterfields?
224
00:23:23,375 --> 00:23:24,375
Yes, ma'am.
225
00:23:30,625 --> 00:23:31,745
I'll write you a note.
226
00:23:32,750 --> 00:23:35,580
You look a bit youthful
for smoking, yourself.
227
00:25:11,125 --> 00:25:12,205
Young lady!
228
00:25:13,375 --> 00:25:15,995
You have to buy the
magazine or put it back.
229
00:25:17,250 --> 00:25:19,580
- Can't I just...
- You wanna read? Read the sign.
230
00:25:37,000 --> 00:25:40,460
No, it's all the same oil,
it's just three different sizes.
231
00:25:46,083 --> 00:25:48,213
If you don't use a lot,
you wanna buy that one,
232
00:25:48,291 --> 00:25:51,501
because it does go bad, but this
is the best value for the money.
233
00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:54,750
If you can't decide, get the middle
one. It's not rocket science.
234
00:26:12,083 --> 00:26:13,503
Thank you, dear.
235
00:26:19,166 --> 00:26:22,286
Well, that's the last
of the instant coffee.
236
00:26:23,208 --> 00:26:26,748
I'd go shopping, but I just don't
know where all the money goes.
237
00:26:27,291 --> 00:26:29,171
I've bought little more
than trifles this month,
238
00:26:29,208 --> 00:26:31,998
and yet I have seven dollars left
where I should have at least 20.
239
00:26:32,083 --> 00:26:33,083
Seven dollars?
240
00:26:34,041 --> 00:26:36,711
- Is that enough?
- To last till the end of October?
241
00:26:36,791 --> 00:26:37,791
I think not.
242
00:26:38,125 --> 00:26:40,625
It'll scarcely buy chicken
necks and porridge.
243
00:26:40,708 --> 00:26:43,788
- Doesn't Methuen send you a check?
- For 80 dollars.
244
00:26:43,875 --> 00:26:45,625
And only for the first year.
245
00:26:45,708 --> 00:26:48,378
As if the expense of keeping
you doesn't exhaust it.
246
00:26:51,750 --> 00:26:53,670
I'm afraid you'll have to
go without an allowance
247
00:26:53,708 --> 00:26:54,918
until Allston returns.
248
00:26:56,625 --> 00:26:57,745
Which is when?
249
00:26:57,833 --> 00:26:58,833
Who can say?
250
00:27:00,250 --> 00:27:03,080
It seems he's been unavoidably
detained out West.
251
00:27:10,500 --> 00:27:12,000
Maybe I could get a job.
252
00:27:12,083 --> 00:27:14,630
- A job?
- I could work in a store,
253
00:27:14,655 --> 00:27:16,173
or wash dishes somewhere.
254
00:27:16,250 --> 00:27:17,380
Wash dishes?
255
00:27:17,458 --> 00:27:18,878
I'd like to make some money.
256
00:27:19,458 --> 00:27:21,708
Oh, to buy clothes with, I suspect.
257
00:27:23,916 --> 00:27:25,286
To enter chess tournaments.
258
00:27:26,583 --> 00:27:27,583
There's one here.
259
00:27:28,833 --> 00:27:30,963
But it's five dollars
for the entrance fee.
260
00:27:32,041 --> 00:27:34,421
The only girls of your age
who work are colored.
261
00:27:38,291 --> 00:27:39,501
Dear Mr. Shaibel,
262
00:27:40,166 --> 00:27:44,326
there's a chess tournament here
with a first prize of 100 dollars,
263
00:27:44,416 --> 00:27:46,376
and a second prize of 50 dollars.
264
00:27:47,333 --> 00:27:48,793
There are other prizes, too.
265
00:27:51,916 --> 00:27:55,036
It costs five dollars to enter,
and I don't have that.
266
00:27:59,958 --> 00:28:01,248
If you'll send me the money,
267
00:28:01,333 --> 00:28:04,753
I will pay you back ten dollars
if I win any prize at all.
268
00:28:12,708 --> 00:28:14,418
Beth, is that you?
269
00:28:18,875 --> 00:28:21,075
I seem to have caught a cold.
270
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:22,631
Another one?
271
00:28:22,650 --> 00:28:25,248
Mm. I have a proclivity
for viruses, or...
272
00:28:26,250 --> 00:28:27,630
they for me.
273
00:28:28,458 --> 00:28:30,418
Uh... here.
274
00:28:31,750 --> 00:28:33,920
I need you to fill this
prescription for me.
275
00:28:35,125 --> 00:28:36,285
And while you're there...
276
00:28:37,750 --> 00:28:39,420
buy yourself a Coke.
277
00:28:42,708 --> 00:28:44,038
Thanks.
278
00:28:48,333 --> 00:28:49,333
Be just a minute.
279
00:29:04,333 --> 00:29:05,333
Here you go.
280
00:29:12,791 --> 00:29:14,961
My tranquility medicine.
281
00:29:17,666 --> 00:29:21,786
Dr. Talbott has decided I need
more tranquility. Much more.
282
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:25,000
Will you get me a glass of water, dear?
283
00:29:25,020 --> 00:29:26,050
Yes, ma'am.
284
00:29:27,125 --> 00:29:29,495
Why do they only fill
these bottles half full?
285
00:30:37,875 --> 00:30:39,575
Excuse you, Harmon.
286
00:30:39,666 --> 00:30:40,666
Fuck you, Margaret.
287
00:30:41,416 --> 00:30:42,456
Beth,
288
00:30:42,541 --> 00:30:43,631
this came for you.
289
00:30:54,833 --> 00:30:55,833
Thank you.
290
00:30:57,458 --> 00:30:58,458
Mm-hm.
291
00:31:31,708 --> 00:31:33,168
Tell Alma to go easy.
292
00:31:33,791 --> 00:31:35,501
She's only got three refills left.
293
00:31:39,708 --> 00:31:42,788
For a trip the White House
again calls non-political...
294
00:31:43,375 --> 00:31:45,705
- You're home late.
- ... political-looking escort
295
00:31:45,791 --> 00:31:48,381
of 17 Democratic congressmen,
and Mrs. Kennedy...
296
00:31:48,458 --> 00:31:51,208
- I was out walking.
- ... who was featured at the arrival...
297
00:31:51,291 --> 00:31:53,041
Okay. Good night.
298
00:31:54,000 --> 00:31:55,020
Good night.
299
00:31:55,083 --> 00:31:56,803
... turning on the smile
that hasn't been...
300
00:31:56,875 --> 00:31:58,035
Oh, um...
301
00:31:59,625 --> 00:32:03,245
I'm gonna be late again tomorrow.
I have something after school.
302
00:32:04,208 --> 00:32:05,378
Have you joined a club?
303
00:32:05,875 --> 00:32:08,375
I'm playing in that chess
tournament I told you about.
304
00:32:10,500 --> 00:32:13,000
I won't argue that
broadening one's social life
305
00:32:13,083 --> 00:32:15,133
is important for a girl your age.
306
00:32:15,208 --> 00:32:17,958
I just wonder whether a dance
class or a girls' club
307
00:32:18,041 --> 00:32:20,171
wouldn't be better for
making friendships.
308
00:32:21,041 --> 00:32:22,881
I hear Fairfield has pretty good ones.
309
00:32:23,833 --> 00:32:26,753
When you were my age, how did
you broaden your social life?
310
00:32:28,625 --> 00:32:30,285
The tournament goes until Sunday.
311
00:32:57,208 --> 00:32:59,128
- Do you have a clock?
- No.
312
00:32:59,208 --> 00:33:02,328
We have a clock-sharing system.
If your opponent doesn't have one,
313
00:33:02,416 --> 00:33:03,956
come back, and we'll loan you one.
314
00:33:04,041 --> 00:33:06,211
Play starts in 20 minutes.
315
00:33:06,291 --> 00:33:07,501
What's your rating?
316
00:33:08,250 --> 00:33:09,380
I don't have a rating.
317
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:11,687
Have you played in a tournament before?
318
00:33:11,688 --> 00:33:12,937
No.
319
00:33:15,791 --> 00:33:18,331
- Are you sure you wanna do this?
- I'm sure.
320
00:33:18,416 --> 00:33:20,206
We don't have a women's section.
321
00:33:22,125 --> 00:33:24,165
- I'll put you in beginners.
- I'm not a beginner.
322
00:33:24,250 --> 00:33:25,250
Doesn't matter.
323
00:33:26,000 --> 00:33:27,420
If you're an unrated player,
324
00:33:27,500 --> 00:33:29,830
you go in beginners with
the people under 1600.
325
00:33:32,250 --> 00:33:34,080
- What's the prize for beginners?
- Twenty.
326
00:33:34,166 --> 00:33:36,876
- What about the other section?
- First prize in the Open is 100.
327
00:33:36,958 --> 00:33:39,208
Is it against any rule for
me to be in the Open?
328
00:33:39,291 --> 00:33:41,751
- Not exactly.
- Put me in the Open.
329
00:33:42,500 --> 00:33:45,380
There are three guys in there
with ratings over 1800.
330
00:33:45,875 --> 00:33:47,035
And Beltik may show up.
331
00:33:47,625 --> 00:33:48,825
They will eat you alive.
332
00:33:54,458 --> 00:33:55,458
"Harmon."
333
00:34:48,000 --> 00:34:49,670
Are the matches played at random?
334
00:34:50,166 --> 00:34:51,166
Oh, not at all.
335
00:34:52,583 --> 00:34:53,583
Uh...
336
00:34:54,500 --> 00:34:57,630
Uh, they arrange it by
ratings on the first round.
337
00:34:59,125 --> 00:35:02,375
After that, winners play
winners, and losers, losers.
338
00:35:07,083 --> 00:35:08,083
Good luck.
339
00:35:09,916 --> 00:35:10,916
You, too.
340
00:35:21,916 --> 00:35:22,916
Hi.
341
00:35:28,458 --> 00:35:29,628
Hi.
342
00:35:31,125 --> 00:35:32,995
- Annette Packer.
- Beth Harmon.
343
00:35:35,708 --> 00:35:37,828
- I don't understand about chess clocks.
- Oh.
344
00:35:38,500 --> 00:35:39,500
Um...
345
00:35:39,750 --> 00:35:42,040
The clock faced nearest you
measures your playing time.
346
00:35:42,125 --> 00:35:43,995
Each player has 90 minutes.
347
00:35:44,083 --> 00:35:46,633
After you move, you press
that button on top,
348
00:35:46,708 --> 00:35:48,748
and it stops your clock and
starts your opponent's.
349
00:35:48,833 --> 00:35:52,133
And you see that little red flag over
the number 12 on each clock?
350
00:35:52,208 --> 00:35:54,248
Yours will fall down when
the 90 minutes is up,
351
00:35:54,333 --> 00:35:55,713
and if it does that...
352
00:35:57,240 --> 00:35:58,271
you've lost.
353
00:35:58,291 --> 00:35:59,501
And, um...
354
00:36:01,083 --> 00:36:02,333
For recording your moves.
355
00:36:02,416 --> 00:36:03,416
Right.
356
00:36:09,791 --> 00:36:12,791
- You can start your clocks now.
- You can start my clock now.
357
00:36:13,500 --> 00:36:15,040
Why do they put the girls together?
358
00:36:15,125 --> 00:36:16,325
They're not supposed to...
359
00:36:17,000 --> 00:36:19,380
but, if you win, they move you up.
360
00:36:23,166 --> 00:36:25,576
- Oh, it's touch move.
- What's that?
361
00:36:25,666 --> 00:36:28,246
Don't touch a piece unless
you're going to move it.
362
00:36:28,333 --> 00:36:30,383
If you touch it, you have
to move it somewhere.
363
00:36:30,458 --> 00:36:31,458
Okay.
364
00:36:36,416 --> 00:36:37,996
Don't you push your button now?
365
00:36:39,583 --> 00:36:40,583
Sorry.
366
00:36:44,916 --> 00:36:45,996
What I do with this?
367
00:36:47,583 --> 00:36:48,793
Is your match over?
368
00:36:48,875 --> 00:36:49,995
Yes, I won.
369
00:36:51,791 --> 00:36:52,791
That was fast.
370
00:36:54,083 --> 00:36:55,253
What do I do with this?
371
00:36:55,875 --> 00:36:57,995
Circle your name and
drop it in the basket.
372
00:38:12,833 --> 00:38:15,503
- Who are they?
- Beltik and Cullen.
373
00:38:15,583 --> 00:38:18,503
- Beltik's the State Champion.
- Which is which?
374
00:38:22,125 --> 00:38:25,125
- Beltik's the younger one.
- Is he a Grandmaster?
375
00:38:25,208 --> 00:38:26,208
He's working on it.
376
00:38:26,291 --> 00:38:27,331
Takes time.
377
00:38:28,250 --> 00:38:30,420
You have to play
Grandmasters to become one.
378
00:38:30,500 --> 00:38:32,630
- How much time?
- Do you mind?
379
00:38:39,791 --> 00:38:40,791
Draw?
380
00:38:43,916 --> 00:38:45,076
Hell, no.
381
00:38:53,500 --> 00:38:54,710
Yes!
382
00:39:33,166 --> 00:39:34,376
That's check.
383
00:39:35,500 --> 00:39:36,630
I know what it is.
384
00:39:49,166 --> 00:39:50,166
Draw?
385
00:39:58,240 --> 00:39:59,271
You got me.
386
00:39:59,291 --> 00:40:00,291
I resign.
387
00:40:27,333 --> 00:40:28,333
Dinner break.
388
00:40:28,708 --> 00:40:31,628
Next round is at six o'clock.
Then, three more tomorrow.
389
00:40:32,250 --> 00:40:33,790
Final round is Sunday, 11 a.m.
390
00:40:39,791 --> 00:40:40,791
Harmon?
391
00:40:42,125 --> 00:40:43,125
Keep it up, kid.
392
00:40:48,000 --> 00:40:50,130
I think he knew you killed his brother.
393
00:40:50,500 --> 00:40:52,920
- You're in trouble...
- Yours is in the oven.
394
00:40:53,000 --> 00:40:54,500
Someone's always crowding me.
395
00:40:54,583 --> 00:40:57,383
- How did you do at your thing?
- I won four games.
396
00:40:58,625 --> 00:41:00,415
That's nice, good for you.
397
00:41:10,680 --> 00:41:11,729
Yes, Harmon?
398
00:41:11,750 --> 00:41:14,580
You said there were three people
here with a rating higher than 1800.
399
00:41:14,666 --> 00:41:17,456
- That's right.
- I thought I'd be playing one of them.
400
00:41:17,541 --> 00:41:18,881
Them's the breaks, Harmon.
401
00:41:18,958 --> 00:41:20,168
Consider yourself lucky.
402
00:41:20,708 --> 00:41:22,078
I want to play the best.
403
00:41:22,166 --> 00:41:24,536
You have to get a rating
before that happens.
404
00:41:24,625 --> 00:41:25,915
How do I get a rating?
405
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:29,250
You play 30 games in USCF tournaments,
then wait four months.
406
00:41:29,916 --> 00:41:32,312
- That's how you get a rating.
- That's too long.
407
00:41:33,170 --> 00:41:34,229
I want to play Beltik.
408
00:41:34,250 --> 00:41:37,330
If you win your next three games,
and if Beltik does the same.
409
00:41:37,416 --> 00:41:38,416
I will win them.
410
00:41:38,458 --> 00:41:42,248
No, Harmon, you won't. You have
to play Sizemore or Goldman first.
411
00:41:42,333 --> 00:41:43,633
You can't beat either of them.
412
00:41:43,708 --> 00:41:46,128
Sizemore and Goldman? Shit.
413
00:41:46,208 --> 00:41:48,748
Townes, the guy you're
playing now, is underrated.
414
00:41:48,833 --> 00:41:51,253
He plays first board for
the university team,
415
00:41:51,333 --> 00:41:53,543
and last month he came
in fifth in Las Vegas.
416
00:42:02,166 --> 00:42:03,166
What's in Las Vegas?
417
00:42:03,708 --> 00:42:04,828
The US Open.
418
00:42:22,500 --> 00:42:24,330
Looks like we've been
stalking each other.
419
00:42:40,125 --> 00:42:41,325
You want to start my clock?
420
00:42:47,500 --> 00:42:48,500
Sorry.
421
00:44:25,041 --> 00:44:27,581
Jesus Christ, Harmon,
you're humiliating my rook.
422
00:44:28,250 --> 00:44:30,040
He won't have to suffer much longer.
423
00:44:57,000 --> 00:44:58,000
Damn.
424
00:45:04,500 --> 00:45:05,521
How old are you?
425
00:45:06,270 --> 00:45:07,312
Never mind.
426
00:45:07,330 --> 00:45:09,062
Don't answer that,
it'll just depress me.
427
00:45:09,063 --> 00:45:10,583
I'm 36.
428
00:45:12,166 --> 00:45:13,166
Thank you.
429
00:45:14,708 --> 00:45:17,248
You really are something, you know that?
430
00:45:22,208 --> 00:45:23,828
Shall we turn in our sheets?
431
00:45:26,250 --> 00:45:28,420
Um... you go ahead.
432
00:45:28,500 --> 00:45:31,290
I'm gonna study the
board a little longer.
433
00:45:32,416 --> 00:45:33,416
Wow.
434
00:45:49,583 --> 00:45:50,833
Damn it!
435
00:45:55,916 --> 00:45:57,826
Damn!
436
00:46:02,780 --> 00:46:04,269
I just wanted to tell you
437
00:46:04,270 --> 00:46:06,670
that I've never seen anything like...
438
00:46:07,291 --> 00:46:08,331
Um...
439
00:46:08,416 --> 00:46:09,956
Do... Do you have something?
440
00:46:11,250 --> 00:46:12,500
It's my first time.
441
00:46:15,125 --> 00:46:16,125
Um...
442
00:46:19,333 --> 00:46:20,753
Do you know how to use it?
443
00:46:22,958 --> 00:46:23,958
I think so.
444
00:46:24,750 --> 00:46:26,580
I'll wait, just in case.
445
00:46:32,000 --> 00:46:33,080
You're, uh...
446
00:46:33,166 --> 00:46:35,076
You're moving right on up, aren't you?
447
00:46:36,333 --> 00:46:37,333
So far.
448
00:46:40,333 --> 00:46:42,213
Sizemore's pretty tough, though.
449
00:46:42,291 --> 00:46:43,291
Uh-huh.
450
00:47:02,125 --> 00:47:03,125
Thank you.
451
00:47:04,666 --> 00:47:05,666
I didn't...
452
00:47:06,916 --> 00:47:07,916
I just thought...
453
00:47:10,958 --> 00:47:11,958
Thought I was sick.
454
00:47:12,833 --> 00:47:15,213
My first time, I threw up.
455
00:47:16,625 --> 00:47:18,625
Well, I still do sometimes.
456
00:47:20,208 --> 00:47:21,788
Actually, every time.
457
00:47:24,291 --> 00:47:26,831
Well, I have to get back.
458
00:47:26,916 --> 00:47:27,916
Oh, sure.
459
00:47:29,875 --> 00:47:30,875
Hey, Beth.
460
00:47:32,125 --> 00:47:33,415
Beat him, will you?
461
00:47:34,625 --> 00:47:35,625
I'll try.
462
00:47:46,791 --> 00:47:49,081
Ready?
463
00:48:19,250 --> 00:48:20,790
I've started menstruating.
464
00:48:25,333 --> 00:48:27,253
Bit late in the day for you, isn't it?
465
00:48:31,666 --> 00:48:32,786
I'll need pads...
466
00:48:34,166 --> 00:48:35,416
something.
467
00:48:35,500 --> 00:48:38,130
Just go up to my room, to the
top drawer of my chiffonier,
468
00:48:38,208 --> 00:48:39,578
and take what you require.
469
00:48:43,041 --> 00:48:44,041
Oh, and, dear...
470
00:48:45,450 --> 00:48:48,300
be a good girl and get that
little bottle of green pills
471
00:48:48,330 --> 00:48:49,418
by my bedside.
472
00:48:51,875 --> 00:48:54,285
My tranquility needs to be refurbished.
473
00:49:37,458 --> 00:49:38,458
Thank you.
474
00:49:42,541 --> 00:49:43,541
Is something wrong?
475
00:49:45,791 --> 00:49:46,791
Wrong?
476
00:49:48,958 --> 00:49:50,378
I'm not Aristotle, but yes,
477
00:49:50,458 --> 00:49:52,708
I think something could
be construed as wrong.
478
00:49:55,208 --> 00:49:57,328
I've received a message
from Mr. Wheatley.
479
00:49:59,708 --> 00:50:00,708
What did he say?
480
00:50:02,833 --> 00:50:04,383
It seems Mr. Wheatley...
481
00:50:05,458 --> 00:50:08,328
has been indefinitely
detained in the Southwest.
482
00:50:11,375 --> 00:50:13,325
Somewhere between Denver and Butte.
483
00:50:16,950 --> 00:50:19,030
Though, Aristotle was
a moral philosopher,
484
00:50:19,050 --> 00:50:20,418
and I'm just a housewife.
485
00:50:22,541 --> 00:50:23,671
Or I was a housewife.
486
00:50:28,208 --> 00:50:30,918
Can they send me back if you
no longer have a husband?
487
00:50:35,541 --> 00:50:36,881
You put it concretely.
488
00:50:43,333 --> 00:50:44,883
They won't if we lie about it.
489
00:50:48,166 --> 00:50:49,166
That's easy enough.
490
00:50:56,125 --> 00:50:58,455
You're a good soul, Beth.
491
00:51:01,791 --> 00:51:04,421
Why don't you heat up the chicken
dinners in the freezer, okay?
492
00:51:06,208 --> 00:51:07,668
Set the oven at 400.
493
00:51:10,458 --> 00:51:12,378
I don't know how to put these on.
494
00:51:21,041 --> 00:51:22,961
Though I'm no longer a wife,
495
00:51:23,875 --> 00:51:25,575
except by a legal fiction...
496
00:51:30,541 --> 00:51:32,711
I believe I can learn to be a mother.
497
00:51:37,875 --> 00:51:38,875
I'll show you how...
498
00:51:40,583 --> 00:51:42,583
if you promise to never go near Denver.
499
00:52:14,833 --> 00:52:15,833
Mama?
500
00:52:22,708 --> 00:52:23,958
Close your eyes.
501
00:53:05,666 --> 00:53:06,996
Sorry.
502
00:53:08,083 --> 00:53:09,463
Extra cup of coffee.
503
00:53:13,083 --> 00:53:14,753
Harry Beltik. What's your name?
504
00:53:16,083 --> 00:53:17,083
Beth Harmon.
505
00:55:49,166 --> 00:55:50,246
Be right back.
506
00:56:09,916 --> 00:56:12,076
Come on, you ugly piece of trash.
507
00:56:13,666 --> 00:56:14,666
You can beat that...
508
00:56:16,791 --> 00:56:17,791
fucker.
509
00:57:46,875 --> 00:57:48,625
- Son of a bitch.
- I think that's it.
510
00:57:48,708 --> 00:57:51,208
- No, I can get out of this.
- I don't think so.
511
00:57:53,125 --> 00:57:55,245
Maybe, if you'd gotten here on time.
512
00:58:06,850 --> 00:58:07,896
It doesn't work.
513
00:58:07,916 --> 00:58:09,666
- I don't have to use the queen.
- Move.
514
00:58:09,750 --> 00:58:11,896
- I'll just cover it with the bishop and...
- Move.
515
00:58:46,791 --> 00:58:48,001
Do you see it now?
516
00:58:49,000 --> 00:58:51,170
Or should we finish this on the board?
517
00:58:56,750 --> 00:58:57,920
Son of a bitch.
518
00:59:12,041 --> 00:59:15,631
"The world of Kentucky chess
was astonished this weekend
519
00:59:15,708 --> 00:59:19,578
by the playing of a local girl who
triumphed over hardened players
520
00:59:19,666 --> 00:59:22,126
to win the Kentucky State Championship."
521
00:59:22,916 --> 00:59:26,666
"Elizabeth Harmon,
a student at Fairfield High,
522
00:59:26,750 --> 00:59:30,290
showed a mastery of the game
unequaled by any female,
523
00:59:30,375 --> 00:59:31,995
according to Harry Beltik,
524
00:59:32,083 --> 00:59:34,423
whom Miss Harmon defeated
for the state crown."
525
00:59:36,458 --> 00:59:37,748
And 100 dollars.
526
00:59:39,270 --> 00:59:40,312
You won this.
527
00:59:40,333 --> 00:59:41,923
I wanna open a bank account.
528
00:59:42,791 --> 00:59:45,791
But you have to go with me, because
I need a parent or a guardian.
529
00:59:45,870 --> 00:59:47,600
I just didn't have the faintest idea
530
00:59:47,620 --> 00:59:49,705
that people made money playing chess.
531
00:59:49,791 --> 00:59:52,251
There's tournaments with
bigger prizes than that.
532
00:59:54,541 --> 00:59:55,541
How much bigger?
533
00:59:57,541 --> 00:59:58,631
Thousands of dollars.
534
00:59:59,708 --> 01:00:00,708
Goodness.
535
01:00:01,500 --> 01:00:03,880
So, can we go to the
bank today after school?
536
01:00:06,000 --> 01:00:07,000
Certainly.
537
01:01:08,208 --> 01:01:10,458
Beth, will you come down here, please?
538
01:01:14,375 --> 01:01:15,375
What's wrong?
539
01:01:15,958 --> 01:01:18,378
I've been leafing through
this chess magazine.
540
01:01:18,458 --> 01:01:19,918
It's very interesting.
541
01:01:20,750 --> 01:01:23,500
It says here that there is a
tournament in Cincinnati,
542
01:01:23,583 --> 01:01:25,923
and the first prize is 500 dollars.
543
01:01:28,625 --> 01:01:31,705
The Greyhound bus only requires
two hours for the trip.
544
01:01:32,666 --> 01:01:34,206
I took the liberty of calling.
545
01:01:37,541 --> 01:01:38,711
What about school?
546
01:01:39,625 --> 01:01:42,325
I could write a medical
excuse claiming mono.
547
01:01:42,416 --> 01:01:44,521
- Mono?
- Mononucleosis.
548
01:01:44,540 --> 01:01:46,018
It's quite the thing in your age group,
549
01:01:46,020 --> 01:01:48,131
according to the Ladies Home Journal.
550
01:01:51,541 --> 01:01:52,541
Where would we stay?
551
01:01:53,041 --> 01:01:56,671
At the Gibson Hotel, in a double
room for 22 dollars a night.
552
01:01:57,750 --> 01:02:01,040
The Greyhound tickets
would be $11.80 apiece,
553
01:02:01,583 --> 01:02:03,173
plus the cost of food.
554
01:02:03,250 --> 01:02:04,790
I've calculated all of it.
555
01:02:05,583 --> 01:02:08,133
Even if you only won
second or third prize,
556
01:02:08,833 --> 01:02:10,333
there would still be a profit.
557
01:02:11,875 --> 01:02:12,875
I'll win.
558
01:02:14,416 --> 01:02:16,376
I have every confidence.
559
01:02:17,870 --> 01:02:22,870
