Move 2 in detail

Shown below are figures to help you visualize what the steps of Move 2 involve.
I have included these to help readers accustom themselves with the notation system.
 
Move 2: U-1 F2 U F   U-1 F U F2 
Figure 4a  Figure 4b 
U-1: Rotate the top counterclockwise F2: Rotate the front clockwise twice
Figure 4c  Figure 4d 
U: Rotate the top clockwise F: Rotate the front clockwise
Figure 4e  Figure 4f 
U-1: Rotate the top counterclockwise F: Rotate the front clockwise
Figure 4g  Figure 4h 
U: Rotate the top clockwise F2: Rotate the front clockwise twice
Figure 4i 
The move is complete, and has rotated (twisted) three of the front corner pieces. This move will probably need to be performed a few times, orienting the cube to correspond with figures 4 through 7 each time.

Continue solving the Rubik's cube.
