If you capture the queen with the bishop then black has no legal moves and it will be a draw by stalemate.

I have to say, I don't get it, but that's fairly common. I often wind up scratching my head asking myself "what was that supposed to teach me?".
The opening move with the Knight was pretty obvious and a pin on the Queen next wasn't hard to figure out either, but then the King is moved out of the pin diagonal and you've got a free shot at the Queen. That's not the move the puzzle wants you to move.
It gets really strange at the end though because the resolution to the puzzle is a Knight Fork on the Queen and King, which really makes no sense to me because I could have already taken the Queen.
Does anyone have an explanation? What was I supposed to learn here?
