[00:06.90]	{THE ARBITER}
[00:07.12]	Isn't it strange the complications
[00:09.25]	people attach to situations
[00:11.50]	Almost as if they want to
[00:13.01]	miss the wood for the trees?
[00:15.91]	Nothing will change my basic feeling
[00:18.26]	When they have done all their wheeler-dealing--
[00:20.51]	Those in the strongest situations do as they please
[00:24.56]	(spoken)
[00:25.17]	You might see all kinds of human emotion here--
[00:28.06]	passion and pain, love and hate
[00:30.41]	(sung)
[00:31.49]	I see nothing other than a simple board game!
[00:35.74]	(spoken)
[00:36.54]	At the Dusit Thani hotel, Bangkok, Alexander Molokov makes his move
[00:41.40]	{MOLOKOV, spoken}
[00:41.87]	We did not bring you to Bangkok for a holiday, my dear.
[00:44.54]	You must tell your husband he has to lose the match and come home.
[00:47.18]	Talk to Anatoly!
[00:48.46]	(sung)
[00:48.68]	You can have the life you want
[00:53.02]	And anywhere you want it
[00:56.80]	(spoken)
[00:57.02]	But if Anatoly wins,
[00:59.24]	life is going to be very tough for you and your children.
[01:01.70]	Tell Anatoly that!
[01:03.60]	(sung)
[01:03.97]	Make him think of you, not narcissistic dreams of glory
[01:11.08]	How many times does he want to be champion, anyway?
[01:13.74]	{THE ARBITER, spoken}
[01:13.96]	Two days later, the wife,
[01:16.01]	Svetlana Sergievsky, makes her move
[01:17.56]	{SVETLANA, spoken}
[01:17.78]	How many times do you want to be champion, anyway?
[01:21.94]	Come home, Anatoly!
[01:23.44]	(sung)
[01:24.99]	Who needs a dream? Who needs ambition?
[01:29.54]	Who'd be the fool in my position?
[01:42.53]	Once I had dreams...
[01:45.93]	{ANATOLY}
[01:46.44]	Now they’re obsessions
[01:51.31]	Hopes became needs, lovers possessions
[01:59.01]	{SVETLANA}
[01:59.75]	Now you're where you want to be
[02:02.09]	and who you want to be
[02:03.22]	And doing what you always said you would
[02:04.84]	And yet you know you haven't won at all
[02:09.87]	Running for your life and never looking back
[02:11.90]	In case there is someone right behind to shoot you down
[02:14.11]	And say he always knew you'd fall
[02:18.18]	When that crazy wheel slows down
[02:26.37]	Where will you be? Back where you started!
[02:34.78]	{THE ARBITER, spoken}
[02:36.06]	And at the Oriental Hotel, Walter de Courcy
[02:40.22]	from Global Television plays his opening gambit
[02:44.07]	{WALTER, spoken}
[02:44.55]	You father is alive
[02:45.73]	{FLORENCE, spoken}
[02:46.39]	My father? Alive?
[02:47.82]	{WALTER, spoken}
[02:48.15]	Alive in Russia--30 years in prison
[02:50.30]	{FLORENCE, spoken}
[02:50.69]	And you think I would believe you?
[02:52.23]	{WALTER, spoken}
[02:52.74]	Well, the evidence is conclusive,
[02:54.00]	and if you don't believe me, Anatoly will.
[02:55.37]	Now, you get him to lose against Viigand,
[02:57.88]	and Molokov assures me he can get your father out.
[03:00.08]	And not only him...
[03:01.86]	(sung)
[03:02.58]	We have some people to recover
[03:06.81]	I know that you would simply love a
[03:09.07]	Chance to make sure your father's name was high on our list
[03:13.45]	We want him back, which is to say a
[03:15.68]	Gesture is needed from your player
[03:17.89]	We wouldn't mind if he got beaten, in fact we insist
[03:21.86]	{FLORENCE}
[03:22.17]	There must be a lie you wouldn't tell me
[03:24.39]	A limit to your devious ambition
[03:26.51]	But what it could be, I can't imagine
[03:28.64]	Is there no one here who's not a politician?
[03:33.91]	(spoken)
[03:34.43]	There's no deal!
[03:38.36]	(sung)
[03:41.24]	When I was young
[03:43.12]	I learned that memories shouldn't be built to last
[03:47.74]	Luxuries, such as father, mother,
[03:52.44]	jettisoned in the past
[03:56.00]	How can a half-remembered figure
[03:59.98]	From a past so remote that it's hardly real
[04:05.62]	Alter the way I feel?
[04:11.27]	Pity the child, who 25 years on
[04:17.52]	Finds her confidence gone!
[04:24.15]	{THE ARBITER, spoken}
[04:24.51]	While in subterranean marble surroundings,
[04:27.23]	two of the world's most powerful players make a mid-game assessment
[04:31.83]	{WALTER}
[04:32.58]	You should have seen how she reacted
[04:34.32]	I couldn't leave till she'd extracted
[04:36.53]	Promises she would see her father, simple I said
[04:40.91]	Told her the way she could achieve this
[04:43.06]	Even though you might not believe this
[04:45.20]	She said that I was not to worry, go right ahead!
[04:49.42]	{MOLOKOV}
[04:49.62]	You don't know her well
[04:50.62]	She could have fooled you
[04:51.78]	She could despite herself try to resist us
[04:53.80]	{WALTER}
[04:53.98]	Yes, I may be wrong, but to be certain
[04:55.98]	There are others we can call in to assist us
[05:00.71]	{THE ARBITER, spoken}
[05:01.38]	And who better than a dethroned king?
[05:04.32]	{WALTER, spoken}
[05:05.39]	Now remember who's been paying for you to be here,
[05:07.94]	Freddie, in Bangkok.
[05:09.51]	We have a deal with the Soviets to get some people out,
[05:11.37]	including Florence's father,
[05:13.10]	provided Anatoly loses and gets on back to Moscow.
[05:15.93]	You'd like that, wouldn't you, huh?
[05:17.78]	{FREDDIE}
[05:18.14]	Communist, democrat
[05:23.18]	An intriguing collusion!
[05:27.62]	Fair exchange, tit for tat
[05:32.33]	Comradeship in profusion
[05:36.07]	{with echos from MOLOKOV and WALTER}
[05:36.77]	And the appeal, partner
[05:39.33]	Of this deal, partner
[05:41.68]	Is we both stand to win
[05:43.90]	You and me, the lady also
[05:47.21]	Don't break her heart, partner;
[05:49.74]	Just be smart, partner
[05:52.04]	Throw the match, show your love
[05:54.05]	Is as pure as snow in Moscow
[05:57.80]	Thank God we are so civilized
[06:01.08]	And our word can be our bond
[06:05.57]	We can turn this into friendship for life
[06:12.34]	And beyond
[06:14.80]	{ANATOLY}
[06:15.26]	Refugee, total shit
[06:19.62]	That's how I've always seen us
[06:24.14]	Not a help, you'll admit
[06:28.62]	To agreement between us!
[06:32.66]	{with echos from MOLOKOV and WALTER}
[06:33.10]	There's no deal, partner
[06:35.53]	Who's your real partner?
[06:37.75]	Could there be just a chance
[06:40.00]	That you have got some heavy clients?
[06:43.32]	{FREDDIE, with echos from MOLOKOV and WALTER}
[06:43.54]	That's not true, partner
[06:45.56]	How could you, partner
[06:47.80]	Think I'd want to pursue any deal but our alliance?
[06:53.66]	How can you only think of your selfish ambition
[07:00.76]	And not of her position?
[07:03.44]	Or you'd rather perhaps see her world collapse
[07:07.47]	(spoken)
[07:07.64]	For a tinpot competition!
[07:14.84]	{ANATOLY, spoken}
[07:15.05]	Who put you up to this? There's no deal!
[07:18.58]	{THE ARBITER, spoken}
[07:18.77]	So Frederick makes a desperate final play
[07:21.39]	for the woman he hasn't seen in a year
[07:24.41]	{FREDDIE}
[07:24.62]	Silly boy, woman who
[07:31.29]	I should not have let walk out
[07:35.84]	There's no hitch that we two
[07:40.15]	Can't untangle or talk out
[07:44.21]	{with echos from MOLOKOV and WALTER}
[07:44.50]	And the appeal, partner
[07:46.87]	Of this deal, partner
[07:49.04]	Is we both stand to win
[07:51.71]	We will bring back the golden era
[07:54.74]	Stick with me, honey;
[07:56.89]	Leave him be, honey
[07:59.11]	You don't know what they have planned for you
[08:01.85]	Long ago in Moscow
[08:04.63]	{FLORENCE}
[08:04.85]	Can't you see we've moved on?
[08:08.77]	(spoken)
[08:08.99]	Chess has nothing to do with this. Chess isn't life!
[08:13.12]	{FREDDIE, spoken}
[08:13.29]	But I have changed. He won't help you with your father.
[08:16.99]	Anatoly would never throw any match.
[08:18.57]	I'm telling you the truth. Florence, come back to me!
[08:20.85]	{ANATOLY & FLORENCE}
[08:21.20]	Who'd ever think it? Such a squalid little ending
[08:25.79]	Watching him descending just as low as he can go
[08:30.48]	I'm learning things I didn't want to know
[08:39.08]	{ANATOLY, FLORENCE & FREDDIE}
[08:39.30]	Who'd ever guess it? This would be the situation
[08:43.46]	One more complication should be neither here nor there!
[08:48.00]	I wish I had it in me not to care!
[08:52.24]	{ANATOLY}
[08:52.47]	Let him spill out his hate till he knows he's deserted
[09:00.92]	There's no point wasting time preaching to the perverted
[09:09.83]	{ALL}
[09:10.12]	Who'd ever think it?
[09:11.43]	No one makes the moves intended
[09:14.22]	Till the game has ended
[09:15.91]	Then they say I told you so
[09:18.85]	I'm learning things I didn't want to know
[09:26.16]	{FREDDIE, spoken}
[09:26.38]	It can all be different now, Florence.
[09:28.34]	I love you. Come back to me!
[09:30.79]	{THE ARBITER}
[09:31.76]	Everybody's playing the game
[09:35.17]	But nobody's rules are the same
[09:38.31]	{ALL except FREDDIE}
[09:38.62]	Nobody's on nobody's side...
[09:41.86]	{FLORENCE}
[09:42.10]	Never be the first!
[09:43.06]	{ALL except FREDDIE}
[09:43.45]	Everybody's playing the game
[09:46.20]	But nobody's rules are the same
[09:49.84]	{FLORENCE}
[09:50.03]	Never be the last to deceive!
[09:50.48]	{ALL except FREDDIE}
[09:50.99]	Nobody's on nobody's side!

[08:04.63]	FLORENCE
[08:04.85]	Can' t you see we' ve moved on?
[08:08.77]	spoken
[08:08.99]	Chess has nothing to do with this. Chess isn' t life!
[08:13.12]	FREDDIE, spoken
[08:13.29]	But I have changed. He won' t help you with your father.
[08:16.99]	Anatoly would never throw any match.
[08:18.57]	I' m telling you the truth. Florence, come back to me!
[08:20.85]	ANATOLY FLORENCE
[08:21.20]	Who' d ever think it? Such a squalid little ending
[08:25.79]	Watching him descending just as low as he can go
[08:30.48]	I' m learning things I didn' t want to know
[08:39.08]	ANATOLY, FLORENCE FREDDIE
[08:39.30]	Who' d ever guess it? This would be the situation
[08:43.46]	One more complication should be neither here nor there!
[08:48.00]	I wish I had it in me not to care!
[08:52.24]	ANATOLY
[08:52.47]	Let him spill out his hate till he knows he' s deserted
[09:00.92]	There' s no point wasting time preaching to the perverted
[09:09.83]	ALL
[09:10.12]	Who' d ever think it?
[09:11.43]	No one makes the moves intended
[09:14.22]	Till the game has ended
[09:15.91]	Then they say I told you so
[09:18.85]	I' m learning things I didn' t want to know
[09:26.16]	FREDDIE, spoken
[09:26.38]	It can all be different now, Florence.
[09:28.34]	I love you. Come back to me!
[09:30.79]	THE ARBITER
[09:31.76]	Everybody' s playing the game
[09:35.17]	But nobody' s rules are the same
[09:38.31]	ALL except FREDDIE
[09:38.62]	Nobody' s on nobody' s side...
[09:41.86]	FLORENCE
[09:42.10]	Never be the first!
[09:43.06]	ALL except FREDDIE
[09:43.45]	Everybody' s playing the game
[09:46.20]	But nobody' s rules are the same
[09:49.84]	FLORENCE
[09:50.03]	Never be the last to deceive!
[09:50.48]	ALL except FREDDIE
[09:50.99]	Nobody' s on nobody' s side!

[00:06.90]	THE ARBITER
[00:07.12]	Isn' t it strange the complications
[00:09.25]	people attach to situations
[00:11.50]	Almost as if they want to
[00:13.01]	miss the wood for the trees?
[00:15.91]	Nothing will change my basic feeling
[00:18.26]	When they have done all their wheelerdealing
[00:20.51]	Those in the strongest situations do as they please
[00:24.56]	spoken
[00:25.17]	You might see all kinds of human emotion here
[00:28.06]	passion and pain, love and hate
[00:30.41]	sung
[00:31.49]	I see nothing other than a simple board game!
[00:35.74]	spoken
[00:36.54]	At the Dusit Thani hotel, Bangkok, Alexander Molokov makes his move
[00:41.40]	MOLOKOV, spoken
[00:41.87]	We did not bring you to Bangkok for a holiday, my dear.
[00:44.54]	You must tell your husband he has to lose the match and come home.
[00:47.18]	Talk to Anatoly!
[00:48.46]	sung
[00:48.68]	You can have the life you want
[00:53.02]	And anywhere you want it
[00:56.80]	spoken
[00:57.02]	But if Anatoly wins,
[00:59.24]	life is going to be very tough for you and your children.
[01:01.70]	Tell Anatoly that!
[01:03.60]	sung
[01:03.97]	Make him think of you, not narcissistic dreams of glory
[01:11.08]	How many times does he want to be champion, anyway?
[01:13.74]	THE ARBITER, spoken
[01:13.96]	Two days later, the wife,
[01:16.01]	Svetlana Sergievsky, makes her move
[01:17.56]	SVETLANA, spoken
[01:17.78]	How many times do you want to be champion, anyway?
[01:21.94]	Come home, Anatoly!
[01:23.44]	sung
[01:24.99]	Who needs a dream? Who needs ambition?
[01:29.54]	Who' d be the fool in my position?
[01:42.53]	Once I had dreams...
[01:45.93]	ANATOLY
[01:46.44]	Now they' re obsessions
[01:51.31]	Hopes became needs, lovers possessions
[01:59.01]	SVETLANA
[01:59.75]	Now you' re where you want to be
[02:02.09]	and who you want to be
[02:03.22]	And doing what you always said you would
[02:04.84]	And yet you know you haven' t won at all
[02:09.87]	Running for your life and never looking back
[02:11.90]	In case there is someone right behind to shoot you down
[02:14.11]	And say he always knew you' d fall
[02:18.18]	When that crazy wheel slows down
[02:26.37]	Where will you be? Back where you started!
[02:34.78]	THE ARBITER, spoken
[02:36.06]	And at the Oriental Hotel, Walter de Courcy
[02:40.22]	from Global Television plays his opening gambit
[02:44.07]	WALTER, spoken
[02:44.55]	You father is alive
[02:45.73]	FLORENCE, spoken
[02:46.39]	My father? Alive?
[02:47.82]	WALTER, spoken
[02:48.15]	Alive in Russia30 years in prison
[02:50.30]	FLORENCE, spoken
[02:50.69]	And you think I would believe you?
[02:52.23]	WALTER, spoken
[02:52.74]	Well, the evidence is conclusive,
[02:54.00]	and if you don' t believe me, Anatoly will.
[02:55.37]	Now, you get him to lose against Viigand,
[02:57.88]	and Molokov assures me he can get your father out.
[03:00.08]	And not only him...
[03:01.86]	sung
[03:02.58]	We have some people to recover
[03:06.81]	I know that you would simply love a
[03:09.07]	Chance to make sure your father' s name was high on our list
[03:13.45]	We want him back, which is to say a
[03:15.68]	Gesture is needed from your player
[03:17.89]	We wouldn' t mind if he got beaten, in fact we insist
[03:21.86]	FLORENCE
[03:22.17]	There must be a lie you wouldn' t tell me
[03:24.39]	A limit to your devious ambition
[03:26.51]	But what it could be, I can' t imagine
[03:28.64]	Is there no one here who' s not a politician?
[03:33.91]	spoken
[03:34.43]	There' s no deal!
[03:38.36]	sung
[03:41.24]	When I was young
[03:43.12]	I learned that memories shouldn' t be built to last
[03:47.74]	Luxuries, such as father, mother,
[03:52.44]	jettisoned in the past
[03:56.00]	How can a halfremembered figure
[03:59.98]	From a past so remote that it' s hardly real
[04:05.62]	Alter the way I feel?
[04:11.27]	Pity the child, who 25 years on
[04:17.52]	Finds her confidence gone!
[04:24.15]	THE ARBITER, spoken
[04:24.51]	While in subterranean marble surroundings,
[04:27.23]	two of the world' s most powerful players make a midgame assessment
[04:31.83]	WALTER
[04:32.58]	You should have seen how she reacted
[04:34.32]	I couldn' t leave till she' d extracted
[04:36.53]	Promises she would see her father, simple I said
[04:40.91]	Told her the way she could achieve this
[04:43.06]	Even though you might not believe this
[04:45.20]	She said that I was not to worry, go right ahead!
[04:49.42]	MOLOKOV
[04:49.62]	You don' t know her well
[04:50.62]	She could have fooled you
[04:51.78]	She could despite herself try to resist us
[04:53.80]	WALTER
[04:53.98]	Yes, I may be wrong, but to be certain
[04:55.98]	There are others we can call in to assist us
[05:00.71]	THE ARBITER, spoken
[05:01.38]	And who better than a dethroned king?
[05:04.32]	WALTER, spoken
[05:05.39]	Now remember who' s been paying for you to be here,
[05:07.94]	Freddie, in Bangkok.
[05:09.51]	We have a deal with the Soviets to get some people out,
[05:11.37]	including Florence' s father,
[05:13.10]	provided Anatoly loses and gets on back to Moscow.
[05:15.93]	You' d like that, wouldn' t you, huh?
[05:17.78]	FREDDIE
[05:18.14]	Communist, democrat
[05:23.18]	An intriguing collusion!
[05:27.62]	Fair exchange, tit for tat
[05:32.33]	Comradeship in profusion
[05:36.07]	with echos from MOLOKOV and WALTER
[05:36.77]	And the appeal, partner
[05:39.33]	Of this deal, partner
[05:41.68]	Is we both stand to win
[05:43.90]	You and me, the lady also
[05:47.21]	Don' t break her heart, partner
[05:49.74]	Just be smart, partner
[05:52.04]	Throw the match, show your love
[05:54.05]	Is as pure as snow in Moscow
[05:57.80]	Thank God we are so civilized
[06:01.08]	And our word can be our bond
[06:05.57]	We can turn this into friendship for life
[06:12.34]	And beyond
[06:14.80]	ANATOLY
[06:15.26]	Refugee, total shit
[06:19.62]	That' s how I' ve always seen us
[06:24.14]	Not a help, you' ll admit
[06:28.62]	To agreement between us!
[06:32.66]	with echos from MOLOKOV and WALTER
[06:33.10]	There' s no deal, partner
[06:35.53]	Who' s your real partner?
[06:37.75]	Could there be just a chance
[06:40.00]	That you have got some heavy clients?
[06:43.32]	FREDDIE, with echos from MOLOKOV and WALTER
[06:43.54]	That' s not true, partner
[06:45.56]	How could you, partner
[06:47.80]	Think I' d want to pursue any deal but our alliance?
[06:53.66]	How can you only think of your selfish ambition
[07:00.76]	And not of her position?
[07:03.44]	Or you' d rather perhaps see her world collapse
[07:07.47]	spoken
[07:07.64]	For a tinpot competition!
[07:14.84]	ANATOLY, spoken
[07:15.05]	Who put you up to this? There' s no deal!
[07:18.58]	THE ARBITER, spoken
[07:18.77]	So Frederick makes a desperate final play
[07:21.39]	for the woman he hasn' t seen in a year
[07:24.41]	FREDDIE
[07:24.62]	Silly boy, woman who
[07:31.29]	I should not have let walk out
[07:35.84]	There' s no hitch that we two
[07:40.15]	Can' t untangle or talk out
[07:44.21]	with echos from MOLOKOV and WALTER
[07:44.50]	And the appeal, partner
[07:46.87]	Of this deal, partner
[07:49.04]	Is we both stand to win
[07:51.71]	We will bring back the golden era
[07:54.74]	Stick with me, honey
[07:56.89]	Leave him be, honey
[07:59.11]	You don' t know what they have planned for you
[08:01.85]	Long ago in Moscow
[08:04.63]	FLORENCE
[08:04.85]	Can' t you see we' ve moved on?
[08:08.77]	spoken
[08:08.99]	Chess has nothing to do with this. Chess isn' t life!
[08:13.12]	FREDDIE, spoken
[08:13.29]	But I have changed. He won' t help you with your father.
[08:16.99]	Anatoly would never throw any match.
[08:18.57]	I' m telling you the truth. Florence, come back to me!
[08:20.85]	ANATOLY FLORENCE
[08:21.20]	Who' d ever think it? Such a squalid little ending
[08:25.79]	Watching him descending just as low as he can go
[08:30.48]	I' m learning things I didn' t want to know
[08:39.08]	ANATOLY, FLORENCE FREDDIE
[08:39.30]	Who' d ever guess it? This would be the situation
[08:43.46]	One more complication should be neither here nor there!
[08:48.00]	I wish I had it in me not to care!
[08:52.24]	ANATOLY
[08:52.47]	Let him spill out his hate till he knows he' s deserted
[09:00.92]	There' s no point wasting time preaching to the perverted
[09:09.83]	ALL
[09:10.12]	Who' d ever think it?
[09:11.43]	No one makes the moves intended
[09:14.22]	Till the game has ended
[09:15.91]	Then they say I told you so
[09:18.85]	I' m learning things I didn' t want to know
[09:26.16]	FREDDIE, spoken
[09:26.38]	It can all be different now, Florence.
[09:28.34]	I love you. Come back to me!
[09:30.79]	THE ARBITER
[09:31.76]	Everybody' s playing the game
[09:35.17]	But nobody' s rules are the same
[09:38.31]	ALL except FREDDIE
[09:38.62]	Nobody' s on nobody' s side...
[09:41.86]	FLORENCE
[09:42.10]	Never be the first!
[09:43.06]	ALL except FREDDIE
[09:43.45]	Everybody' s playing the game
[09:46.20]	But nobody' s rules are the same
[09:49.84]	FLORENCE
[09:50.03]	Never be the last to deceive!
[09:50.48]	ALL except FREDDIE
[09:50.99]	Nobody' s on nobody' s side!
