Phoebe: HA! Check! My queen has your king trapped! Marigold: You mean your PAWN? *zap* Phoebe: That's cheating. You should just lose gracefully. Marigold: My cheating is just as graceful. Phoebe: Daaaaad, Marigold's morphing your chess guys again!
Judging from what we see on the board, Phoebe ist still about to win easily.Marigold has only the king and one knight left, and if she moves either of them, Phoebe will – unmagically – turn a pawn into a new queen. That, plus the rook/castle in the last row, will ensure check mate in a few moves.
