Surprise, wonder

Échec et mat !

— Checkmate! Checkmate.

— What? We haven’t started yet.

— You would have opened with the Queen’s Gambit. I would have countered with a Slav Defense. You would have panicked, thus exposing your queen. Seeing your queen exposed would have compelled you to defend her. Thereby neglecting my castle. Checkmate.
