Chess Guy: Good luck.

Lori: Good luck!

Chess Guy: Oh uh, so you’re the banker. Whoever plays black is the banker.

Lori: Oh. All right, sure.

A chessboard with Illinois town city names and prices listed on each square. White moved to e4, Joliet.

Chess Guy: I’d like to buy Joliet, please. Here is … $400.

Lori: So what does that get you?

Chess Guy: Well, now I can charge rent on this square. It’s 10 percent. So if you ever move a piece to Joliet, you have to pay me 40 dollars every turn you spend on it.

Lori: Jesus Christ.

Chess Guy: Is everything all right?

Lori: No, yeah, no, sure, yeah.
