Ahhh! Sneaky. You got me with the underpromotion puzzle - I love it! I totally missed that stalemate threat. That's definitely something I need to work on - I am fascinated with underpromotion puzzles... so, thanks!

The pawn is stopped by the knight. The knight can't move because of the pin of the queen to the black king. To remove the pin, the king is to be moved which can't happen as the bishop and queen are limiting its mobility.
