Beth's Harmon's Final Chess Game | The Queen's Gambit - Full Scene

In a 1950s orphanage, a young girl reveals an astonishing talent for chess and begins an unlikely journey to stardom while grappling with addiction.

Borgov looks intimidating but is the only person who hugged her after a match.

[rbutthamilton]

Don't forget Borgov was also an orphan. That is why he was actually proud of her achievement and disappointed in Paris when he saw her in that hung-over state.

[tlightning]

It’s so adorable the way those old Russian men were just ecstatic to see her. She was everyone’s hero.

[kingtrash]

What makes me sad is that Mr Shaibel didn’t get to see her win this game as he loved and admired her so much. But this made me cry. Such an awesome and powerful series

[caleblim]

I like that when Borgov realises he’s lost, he doesn’t seem angry or even disappointed. He’s smiling, because he knows he put up a great fight in a brilliant game against an excellent opponent, and in the end all he cared about was playing the game he loves, so he could smile and applaud Beth’s victory.

[RoseisoutofherTOGA]

For me, the scene where the boys leap in happiness “SHE WON!!!” is everything

[nappiichu]

The scene where Jolene smiles after hearing Beth won the game never fails to make me tear up.

[crucisnh]

I love the final scene of Beth Harmon walking through a park and up to the old men playing chess. And how the old guys were incredibly respectful of her and how classy Harmon was in accepting their congratulations, to the point of even accepting an invitation to play a game with a smile on her face. I can't imagine a better ending.

[nugett]

It’s so cool that every single of the men that intimidated her at the start ended up supporting her and not trying to tear her down or something like that

[socialvegan]

She didn't cry for her real mother or her adopted mother when they died but she did broke down when Mr. Shaibel died.. I couldn't hold my tears as well.

[jonnypearson]

I love how they didn’t portray the Soviets as disrespectful and horrible men. They were honourable and acted well in defeat.

[LilaSlayed]

this will forever be my PERFECT netflix show. there is no villain, only resilience and love for a game and each other.

[momoneylessproblems]

Love how they didn't portray the Russians as the "evil and oppressive" Soviets as they usually do in movies. They just depicted them as people living in a different country who had a profound passion for chess. Especially Borgov. He was never a "bad guy". He was just a very talented chess player who had a lot of respect for the game and for those who played it well. Hence why he was genuinely happy when Beth won. He'd been beautifully outplayed and by an orphan no less (Which he himself was). And he respected her for it.

[tiagonozelos]

I loved the fact that russians were not displayed as evil antagonists like many american shows and movies do. Instead, they were shown to be kind and respectful.

[greekfountain]

The way the old man says “Harmon :D” always gets me because he sounds like someone who just met a long lost friend and it’s so beautiful

[MellSayzHi]

"She WON!" These are people who saw her at her begining and are so proud of where she ended up. I tear up at this scene every time.

[jaredtibayan]

Everybody gangsta till borgov speaks English

[jumpingship]

By playing the old man, she honored Mr Shaibell. She went to her roots, she went home again. She found her family in chess.

[eloisagarcia]

I love how both Borgov and Luchenko were so graceful about losing, like really... no ego whatsoever, they were just aknowledging Beth's talent, I love that with all my heart

[SharonVeeLee]

You know it's funny thinking on it... she really had no external enemies. Everyone could see her greatness and wanted her to succeed. Even Vasily, her biggest challenge, turns out to be a quiet, kind man. All of her struggles are within and everyone around her supported her, even her competitors.
