He doesn�t have to find out. Please I need to explain some things.
FLORENCE
What kind of things?
ANATOLY
I think love you!
FLORENCE
You don�t even know me!
ANATOLY
I know, but I can�t stop thinking about you.
FLORENCE
Even when you�re playing chess?
ANATOLY
Even then. You inspire me, make me want to play the best I can � to impress you. I know it�s
childish, but it�s true.
FLORENCE
I�m flattered, but I don�t know what I�ve done to deserve such praise, I�m just me!
ANATOLY
That�s it, you�re just you, you don�t pretend to be anything else. I love you because you don�t realise how special you are. I don�t think anyone has told you that for a long time. Our lives are being run by other people, people who don�t care about us. We need to break free from them. Make our own lives, follow our own dreams.
FLORENCE
You make it sound all so easy and wonderful, but I can�t be seen with you, I�m sorry.
ANATOLY
Please, let�s just talk about it.
FLORENCE
No, I�m sorry.
[Chess Break 4 - Back in Anatoly�s hotel room.]
MOLOKOV
You must make another move on Vassy straight away. Trumper�s beginning to regain his composure, he needs to see you together. You�ve got to get him worried again.
ANATOLY
I told you! I�m not doing it!
MOLOKOV
You�re exhausted, you don�t have the strength to beat him, I�ve told you this before. Take the woman and he�ll take a fall. He�ll loose his concentration and you�ll be able to win the championship.
ANATOLY
No!
[Chess Break 5 - In the arena, at the chess board.]
FREDDIE
Why the hell are you looking at Florence! Keep your eyes and your filthy commie hands off her. Do you hear me!
ANATOLY
I was only looking, I didn�t touch.
FREDDIE
You touch her and I�ll kill you.
[Freddie and Florence leave the arena and return to their room.]
FLORENCE
What the hell are you doing! You can�t threaten a man for looking in my direction!
