I'm sure you could work it out yourself if you look up what a stalemate is.

LOL that is the most ridiculous rule i have ever heard of. Mind = blown. Always assumed a stalemate was when neither side could win.

How ridiculous.

black's move, king not in check and unable to move to any of the 7 available squares without being in check. black pawn cannot move either.  stalemate.

Qe4 might have been better?

Yeah white has Qe4, Nd3, Qd6, Qc7 which are all mate in one.

Even Qxf3 is an improvement.
