Thrilled by her first live chess game, Alma is introduced to the twins and immediately starts sizing them up.

Beth asks how to get invited to play abroad; the twins explain that the Soviets are paid professionals who eat Americans alive.

The twins greet Beth in Mexico City and bluntly sum up what Alma has been doing with the man in the green Dodge.

Matt and Mike talk the crowd through the opening as Borgov sidesteps Beth's Sicilian with a rare line; 'Borgov's not a machine' - 'That you know of.'
