Isn’t Black’s Queen is a weird place right in the corner? Yes, and it cannot move anywhere either. So all
White needs to do is to attack it with 1.Nf7 and the Queen is trapped.

In the position above, after 1.f5 Black’s Bishop has no escape. If it were Black to move, Black would
have the time to escape with 1…Bc2 for example or make an escape square with 1…f6.
