** White!Geri's moves are...pretty bad. His second move gives him a chance to capture one of Black!Geri's pawns, but he ignores it, therefore opening his own pawn to be attacked. His third move is to place a knight on the edge of the board where it is immediately captured by a bishop- and then he doesn't even take the bishop with his B pawn. These aren't even stupid mistakes, they're borderline ''suicidal''. No wonder he wasn't able to take a single one of Black!Geri's pieces.
** Black!Geri being fooled by White!Geri flipping the board.

Possibly the former, as during his scene, there's a FreezeFrameBonus where the opens a drawer on his tool box that's full of chess pieces. There's also a subtle implication that he used his skills as a repairman to make the pieces himself.

* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Does Geri have split personality disorder? Or does he just act out the two separate roles to entertain himself?
* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: The background music.
* TearJerker: This short is pretty sad when you think about it. The fact that a senile old man has no one to play chess with except himself at the park is quite a depressing thought, if not realistic.
