Illusion, the art of tricking the brain, distorting the senses, challenging

perception. You can't trust what you see, even with your own eyes. Meet the

Masters of Illusion.

Hello, everyone. Welcome to Masters of Illusion. I'm Dean Cain. Now, listen,

there are things found in nature that somehow just seem magical.

A spider web, birds in flight, waterfall, snowflake.

What you're about to see on this stage definitely would not happen in nature. I

promise you that.

Dean, Dean, Dean, Dean, wait. Ladies and gentlemen, it's John LeSean.

And some condiments. Yeah, I thought we would make a sandwich.

Right here in the opening of the show. Yeah, my three favorite ingredients,

peanut butter, jelly, and pickles.

Okay. Well, which one's your favorite?

I like peanut butter. Peanut butter. I knew that.

I did. See? Because on the inside, I put the word, you picked me.

That's pretty good. Yeah.

Is that what's written on the inside of all the others, though?

Let's try it. It says, you picked peanut butter right there.

And on this one right here, it says, you picked peanut butter as well.

Could you go make me a sandwich? I'll take that. No, I will make you a

I'll see you. Thank you.

Donald Trump.

There are roughly 800 quadrillion times more ways to shuffle a deck of cards

than there are atoms on Earth.

I'll let that sink in for a second.

But this next trick is truly one of a kind.

Here's Farrell Dillon.

Thank you so much for coming up on the stage.

Tim. Appreciate it. I'm going to show you a card trick.

Okay. But before I show you the trick, I got to show you something really cool.

It's this.

What do you notice about my pocket?

It's open.

It's empty is what I'm looking for, man. It is? Yeah, it's empty. Thank you.

You can touch it if you want. Make sure it is empty.

No, go ahead. Just like give it a little.

I'm just kidding. I just wanted to scream in your face.

I'm kind of a jerk. But look.

Now that we know the pocket's empty, though, I can begin the trick for you,

Go ahead, take out any card you want. Look at it. Don't let me see it. Hold it

steady, though, in front of that camera right there.

They're going to zoom in on it. Oh, wow, look at that.

Got it, Tim? Look at it yourself, all right? Don't forget it. All right, now,

Tim, here's what's going to happen. I'm going to drop cards from one end to the

other. You say stop somewhere in the middle.

Stop. Perfect. Put your card back right there. Ooh, face down. Good choice.

Now, look, I'm going to cause your card to fly through the air and then land

inside of my pocket. Are you ready for this?

All right, get ready.

Boom!

We have one card from here through the air to here. Check it out.

Yep, that was it!

Thank you. So your card was the ten of spades, right?

Nine of diamonds.

Okay, good, because the nine of diamonds is the one that I got in my pocket.

Tim, do you want to see how this works?

Yeah, I do, dude. It's really great.

Okay, so what you do is you have to make sure somebody picks the nine of

diamonds. However you want to do that, that's your choice.

Then you take the nine of diamonds, you put it in the middle. Now, here's where

it gets difficult, okay?

You've got to turn the nine of diamonds invisible so that people don't see it.

Then you take the nine of diamonds out, and you put it in your pocket. That's

how it works, okay?

So now that you know how it works, Tim, you know what to look for, okay? So

watch. Look, the nine of diamonds.

Here, do me a favor. Push it all the way in for me.

Look, it goes all the way in. Then watch. I ripple the cards, and I turn it

invisible. Do you see it again?

No. It's there. It's definitely there. Look, but I take the nine of diamonds. I

put it down inside the pocket. Once it hits my pocket, it turns visible again,

Steve.

One more time, Tim, but this time just for you, all right? I don't want you to

think that I'm cheating.

Okay. I mean, I am, but I don't want you to think it. Look, I got to turn the

card invisible.

I got to take it out. I got to put it there in the pocket. Go ahead. Check it

out. Go ahead.

I'm just kidding. That's weird.

That is weird. Yeah.

Yeah. Tim, you don't reach inside people's pockets, okay? Plus, if you

would have found the eight of hearts. And yours was the nine of diamonds. Hold

on to that.

You would have also found this one right here. Seven of hearts. Hold on to that.

You would have also found this one right here. It's the queen of hearts. In

fact, Tim, look, you would have found all the cards.

Except for one card.

It did not fly to my pocket. It stayed right here in my hand the whole time.

And, Tim, that just so happens to be your card.

The nine diamonds.

This magician is the perfect friend to hang out with because the next round is

always on him.

Let's hear it for Nick Dopich.

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I'm still looking for a magic trick, but I'm actually here to sell you

something. I'm here to sell you something that will...

something to help you get through the holidays, get through those family

gatherings, get through those friends, anything that you need. This device is

very small. It's compact. It looks a little something like this.

That's right.

I don't know what they put in these bottles, but what's inside the bottle

doesn't matter. The bottle itself is actually what the incredible thing is.

I don't know if you guys noticed this right here, but that's now empty. Now,

something's empty,

I can't really do much with it, because in order to do this at Family Guy,

you've got to sneak like eight or nine of these bottles in here. However, this

one in particular, all you've got to do is give it a little shake like that, and

it'll actually refill.

Thank you. Thank you.

I don't know.

It's not magic. It's just some kind of science. Some guy figured this out. I'm

not sure what happened.

Well, that fills up quickly, doesn't it?

That's like Grandma and Grandpa are showing up. Okay, good.

However, one of the things you want to make sure that you have, you make sure

that the lid stays on tight. Life hack, all right? One of the things, make sure

the lid stays on tight on these things, because if you don't have the lid on

there and everybody does, you need another one.

then that means that you're actually going to... The

human

subconscious

is capable of truly miraculous things. Our next performers plan to test if they

can use that to their advantage.

From England, here are The Conjurers.

So tonight, we thought we'd do something completely impossible. Four random six

-digit numbers for this. So a member of tonight's lovely audience is needed to

come and help.

Let's choose you.

Right at the very front. Come and join me. Everybody give her a round of

applause.

Lovely. Thank you. What's your name?

Kathy. Kathy, you look lovely. Kathy, have a seat there for me. I want you to

look here, right on your finger for me. That finger there.

Really focus on it, Kathy, but really look at it.

And as you look at it, I'm going to get you to 1, 2, 3, sleep, Kathy. Just down

there like that. Stay there.

Good. And really stay.

Locked, cemented, held in that one place.

Now, Kathy, in a moment, as I said, I'm going to ask you to look at some

numbers. As you do, I don't need to remember them.

If you're a subconscious mind, that's important, not your conscious, Kathy.

3, 2, 1, you can come back. Gently and slowly. Good. Thank you so much.

Now, Kathy, here are the numbers.

I want you to make sure you see all of them. Every one is important. But again,

don't remember them. Here's your first steps.

Good.

Your second set makes me see every single one. Your third set. Doing a

job, Cathy. And last but not least, your fourth set just there.

Tash, let's make this incredible.

Cathy, we want for you to think of a number between one and ten.

Three. Three.

Perfect. Now, Cathy, think of a two -digit number important to you.

44. Perfect, Cathy. And I think that we have to do another one, Tash.

Let's go for a three -digit number this time.

Okay, five, six, seven.

Now, Cathy, importantly.

You really haven't seen those numbers before this moment on this stage here

tonight. Good.

Oh, look. Tash is now writing these numbers up there on the board, the ones

you saw for a second, the ones that you said you hadn't remembered. So now,

Cathy, it looks almost like we have a sum, an impossible sum with the answer

the outcome that you could have not known. But maybe you, Cathy, have done

something completely impossible.

Tash. We have the 6 and the 6, that's 12. How about that 2, 14, and the 3, 17.

We carry the 1.

Then here we have the 4 and the 5.

That's 9 plus the 1. That's 10.

Add the 2. That's 12. Add the 4. 16.

We carry the 1.

Then here we have 8 plus the 2. That's 10. Add that 1. 11 plus the 4.

15. We carry the 1.

Hopefully you can see what's happening now.

Let's continue. Add the 6 and 3. That's 9. Add that 1. Add the 1. That is 14. We

carry on like so.

3 and 6. That's 9. 9. Add that 4. 13. Add the 1.

14. Let's continue.

We have the 9 and the 2.

That's 11. Add that 1. That's 12.

12. Add 1. It's, of course, 1.

3. Four, four, five, six, seven.

Round the floor. The turkey.

Yes.

A close attention.

We would hate for you to miss this next illusion from Chipper Lowell when we

return.

It's always a sweet treat to see this illusionist. So let's give a round of

applause for the magically comedic Chipper Lowe.

Thank you guys so much and give it up for Morgan, everybody.

Nice to have you here. Now, as I understand it, you're going to allow me

borrow some money. Is that okay? Yeah. It is? Okay. What do you got? Do you

like a $50 bill or a $100 or a $75 bill?

You have a $2 bill. We will use it. Excellent.

Do me a favor, if you would. You can put that down by your side, and I'm going

to have you read off the last four numbers on that serial number. Go ahead.

First number is?

Eight. Eight. All right. One, five, and zero.

And there should be a letter at the end?

A. A. All right.

8 -1 -5 -0 and the letter A. We'll put it right up there for safekeeping. Very

nice. And if you don't mind, may I borrow that just for a second?

Okay. Appreciate it. I'm going to kind of make it very unique. We are going to

make a little, little cut.

It's okay.

Oh, maybe not. All right.

Would you hold on to that? As a matter of fact, do me a favor. Put it into your

left pocket, if you would, please.

All right.

Don't be worried. And then your right hand, just go like that, if you would.

Excellent. I'm going to have you hold it just like so.

Very good. And we are going to use the marker and an envelope.

We will take this, fold it up, watch very closely, into the envelope. Is it

there?

It is. All right.

There we go. We're going to seal it.

And we are going to add a couple other envelopes to that. And we're going to

them around, mix them around. Ah, fun, fun. So we have the three envelopes, and

I'm going to number these using letters. I know.

So this will be A.

There you go. And this will be B.

All right. And this one will be B.

Okay. You get to choose A, B, or C. All right. Whichever one you want. Shout it

out. B. B?

Okay. B. All right. Hold on to that if you would, please.

These are the ones that you did not want, right?

Yes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. All right. No, that's fine. We'll go for it.

Excellent. That goes away.

Okay. Fun.

All right. That goes away.

And that's the one. So this is the exciting moment. Are you ready?

Ah, this is so cool.

All right, I'm going to open this up. I want you, if you would please, go ahead

and reach inside and take out whatever's in there. Go for it. There you go.

Oh, my gosh. Is that your card?

Wrong trick. Okay, wrong trick.

Well, that was fun. Come on, that was worth $2. Thank you. Have a great seat.

There you go. Okay.

No, no, come back, come back, come back. I feel bad. I feel bad. I do. You know

what? We have a present for you.

Yes, we have a present. Oh, they're going to love this. I made you a snack.

I did.

Yes,

orange gelatin.

Oh, my goodness. Look how yummy is that.

Isn't that? As a matter of fact, I don't know if people can see that, but there

is something.

inside. You know what? You're going to have to get it. So this hand.

Reach in. Go ahead and grab it. Go ahead. Yeah.

Just move around in there.

There you go. Yeah. That's it. There you go.

It's fun, isn't it? Okay. Yeah.

There you go. Would you just be careful? I don't want to get icky.

Okay. Yep. There you go. No. That's awesome. Look at that.

Fantastic. As a matter of fact, let me just take this and clean it off for you.

There you go.

Would you take that?

All right. Would you do me a favor? Would you read the serial number that's

there?

8 -1 -5 -0. 8 -1 -5 -0 on the letter? And the letter A!

Wait, wait, wait. I believe you have a receipt in that pocket. Yeah, reach into

that pocket if you would, please.

There we go.

Do you have it there? Yep. And bring it out.

And let's see.

If that is a match, put it right there on that corner. Ladies and gentlemen,

fantastic. And guess what? You won your money back.

Give her a nice hand.

Get ready for a grand illusion like you've never seen before from Lucy

when we return.

We've all become used to ordering something online and getting it the next

sometimes even the same day.

Well, our next magician thinks she can do it faster.

She's witty. She's mystical.

She's Lucy Darling.

My goodness, what a handsome crowd we have.

You know, you might not realize this, but it's been quite a challenging time

magic over the last couple of years.

I mean, you might not realize that.

There's a war going on.

Yes, this is the correct response. Well done.

It's true. Between magicians and as -seen -on -TV advertisers.

I mean, think about it. They're always taking the word magic and trying to slap

it on products that nobody wants.

Magic car wash, magic dry cleaning, same thing.

Magic delivery would take 14 days. I mean, that's hardly magic.

If it were magic, it would look like this.

Oh, my goodness, wow.

Our package has arrived from Magic Delivery.

But how?

We haven't even ordered anything yet.

Oh.

I know it's a good one, right? Okay, so we have to figure out what to order and

who looks literate.

Didn't think that'd be as hard to find.

Darling, what's your name?

That's your whole name, just the one letter?

Uh, Peter.

Nope, got worse. Okay.

All right, we're going to try to summon a book from the ether.

So what is your favorite magician?

Harry Potter.

I'm standing right here, but thank you.

No, no, it's fine.

We'll fight about it later in the car.

All right, now, Harry Potter, no problem. Now I understand there's magic

delivery. All I have to do is hold the bag open to the sky, and the book shall

simply fall from the heaven.

What?

Okay, everyone, I want you to do your magic. Everyone, wiggle your fingers at

the bag. Wiggle, wiggle.

Okay, all right, this is a bit ticklish. Stop it.

All right, here we go.

Book from the sky, Harry Potter.

One.

Two.

I know it's a good one.

B, darling, are you confused?

No, not at all. No? You should tell your face.

Darling, don't worry about it. I'll explain it to you, you see. I had a bag

the table that was sitting there flat the entire time.

And then I reached into an empty bag, and I pulled out an entire book.

We have one more illusion to serve as our grand finale.

Rudy Obie, when we return.

It's time to present the larger -than -life illusionist. who has a flair for

suspense and dramatics.

Here's Rudy Tobi.

All right.

This is the world's most dangerous card trick. And this is Juicy,

the world's most nervous volunteer.

Part one is the card trick, but this is very dangerous.

Uh -oh.

All the cards are different, okay? Perfectly normal deck.

It's just a lot bigger than normal cards. And I want you to touch any card

you want. Take it. That one, okay.

Take the card.

Look at it. Remember it. Show it to the audience.

And put it back.

Now, to make this extra difficult, I'm going to let Juicy shuffle the cards.

And that's enough, Juicy. Okay, perfect.

So that was part one of the world's most dangerous card trick.

Now for the danger.

Come with me. You stand right there. I'll show you how this works.

This is the button of death.

It's connected to the clock of death.

One push on that button causes the clock to count down 10 deadly seconds, at the

end of which it detonates death.

Don't be deceived by its cheesy, cardboard -like appearance.

It really is dangerous.

Okay, Juicy, put your hand above the button, but don't touch it yet.

Okay, I'll be using a special Teflon fiber shield for your protection.

Juicy, are you ready?

Yes, I'm ready.

Are you guys ready?

Push the button at the count of three. Get ready, Juicy.

One, two, five.

No, did you put the...

Well,

that's all the magic we have time for this time, but there's plenty more next

time. We hope you'll join us again. Until then, I'm Dean Cain. See ya.

Thank you.
