  fredthebear: "Son, don't take the b-pawn!"

There is an old chess tale about a father leaving his fortune (or lack of one) to his only son, on the condition that he never captures the b2-pawn with his queen in the opening. Pawn grabbing instead of piece development has doomed many a lad.

The Black queen takes b2 here. She does not get trapped immediately, but makes eight moves in the game.

By comparison (in the final position), the White queen threatens to wrap matters up on the dark squares with 33.Qe5+. If the Black queen tries to stop the White queen with 32...Qd6 then the pawn capture promotion wins 33.fxRe8=Q+.
