Black to move:
We have three choices for Black here under check. Firstly, it is "capturing" the opponent piece giving check. Secondly, it is "interposing" a piece in between. Thirdly, it is "fleeing" to a safe square nearer to its own queen! If Black could do one of these, then he would have been "with the queen" aside. However, sadly, it is not. Thus the Black king is checkmated; his queen is not there!
