Bobby F trap

Hello all!

I have just started playing, and I came across this video on Youtube:

It is a trap where Bobby Fisher takes the black queen. However, I do not see why.. My question is: When black king is at f7 and white moves the knigt to e6- why dosn`t black just take put the knight with the king? 

I really hope someone can tell me this- I am asuming that there is an easy answer, but my head feels like exploding since I can`t see it :)

Because there is 12.Qd5+ Kf5 13.g4+ Kxg4 14.Rg1+ Kh4 15.Bg5 Kh3 16.Qg2#

Bobby Fischer had an uncanny way of playing the game of chess like a virtuoso. If you haven't seen the video (or even if you have), watch the video "The Game of the Century" Donald Byrne vs Robert Fischer. Fischer was only thirteen when he played that game and he won the game with commanding style even though he let his own queen hang to Byrne's dark squared bishop. Excellent game to watch and study.

Thank you!!! But what if: 14 Rg1 + Kh3 ?
