We're translators. And we don't give a sh&t!
English subtitles:
Captain: "Checkmate."
Marshall: "Ah. [Looking up at the spectator.] Well, Don Matteo, thanks for your help."
Captain: "Marshal, it's your move." [Nota bene: in English, the Marshall just lost on the last move!"
Don Matteo [whispering]: "Move the knight."
Marshall: "Checkmate!"
So, we had checkmates two moves in a row in the same game!
I rewound to listen to the Italian again. The first line is actually "Check with the Queen."
