- Miss Jean Blake: Do you imagine that you saw the king as a father, and the queen as a mother? I mean, one to attack, one to protect?
- Beth Harmon: They're just pieces. And anyway it was the board I noticed first.
- Miss Jean Blake: The board?
- Beth Harmon: 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.
- Beth Harmon: Chess isn't always competitive. Chess can also be beautiful. It was the board I noticed first. 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.
- Matt: When he brought out his rook, then took that pawn, I thought you were done for. I should have known better.
- Beth Harmon: Yes, you should have.
- Alma Wheatley: What are you doing?
- Beth Harmon: Replaying my earlier games.
- Alma Wheatley: What on earth for?

- Alma Wheatley: I see... And?
- Beth Harmon: There aren't any.
- Alma Wheatley: Good girl.
- Beth Harmon: 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.
