1:16:00
Look, I know you don't want to admit it,
but he's right.

1:16:05
I mean, you wouldn't sign your kid up
for little league

1:16:08
and then not get him
a glove.

1:16:11
You equip him.
1:16:12
It's over.
1:16:13
Bonnie, he's in a slump.
1:16:16
This is a slump.
It happens.

1:16:18
When you get into a slump,
1:16:19
you get out of it eventually.
You don't give up.

1:16:22
This is like baseball to you.
1:16:24
If you're afraid to lose,
you lose.

1:16:27
He's afraid.
1:16:28
He's not afraid
of losing.

1:16:31
He's afraid
of losing your love.

1:16:32
How many ballplayers
grow up

1:16:34
afraid of losing
their father's love

1:16:37
every time they come up
to the plate?

1:16:40
All of them!
1:16:44
He knows
you disapprove of him.

1:16:47
He knows you think
he's weak,

1:16:49
but he's not weak.
1:16:52
He's decent.
1:16:55
And if you or Bruce
or anyone else

1:16:57
tries to beat that
out of him,

1:17:00
I swear to God
I'll take him away.

1:17:07
When did you start to get serious
about chess?

1:17:10
Uh, I got serious, oh...
1:17:13
hmm, oh, well, I was always
pretty serious about it.

1:17:16
You know,
when I was maybe 7.

1:17:23
People say they've received letters
from him over the years,

1:17:27
but never show them.
1:17:31
They say
he lost his nerve,

1:17:34
and he'll never play
again.

1:17:38
They say
he lost his mind

1:17:41
and roams the streets
of Los Angeles hiding out

1:17:44
under assumed names.
1:17:46
Check.
1:17:48
Check.
1:17:49
Some people say...
1:17:54
he's dead.
1:17:57
I think he's lying low
and getting stronger,
