#4 Ah, yes Shipman. From the film "The Seventh Seal." My favorite when I was in college. The knight plays chess with Death while others get away.

#5 Look again AP, that ain't a knight, that's Bobby. Bobby forced so many odd match rules on Death that he quit in frustration trailing 4-2-2. He insisted that Bobby was "looking at him funny".
