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, I'm Dean Cain and
welcome to Masters of Illusion. Over the

half hour, there's a good chance you
will be left amazed, astounded.

dazzled, and spellbound. And I further
predict that you will be highly

entertained as well.

So if you're ready for some magic, let's
get started. Hey, Dean, Dean, Dean.

Eric Eaton, ladies and gentlemen. Yeah.

We're just going to get into the show
right now. We're about to start. I know,

but I was backstage passing out candy,
and I don't want to forget about you.

Well, thank you.

Would you like some? I'm not usually a
candy eater, but sure, I'll have a

I guess. Perfect. Here you go.

Okay, but there's nothing.

Oh, I don't see any candy in there. I
accidentally ate the last one. Thank

Well, that was a nice effort. Well, for
you, here's what I'll do. Let's try a

little magic. You like magic, right?

One, two, three.

Just like that. That's good magic.

We all live under the notion that we
have the freedom to make our own

But what if someone had the power to
influence those choices?

and make predictions right in front of
our eyes.

Here to do exactly that is Chipper
Lowell.

Thank you so much. Big round of applause
for our four volunteers in the

audience.

Very nice. Thank you for helping out. We
have four floor mats there, and you

guys go ahead and pick one and stand
behind it. Wherever you want to go, go

it. There we go. Okay, good. One, two.
We have a couple more.

Excellent. Well, as the sign says up
there, it's the poker chip game.

And we have six poker chips right here
on the table. I wrapped them up in

aluminum foil so we can't tell what
color they are. And we're going to go

the row. Everyone gets to pick a poker
chip. Let me just say, this is one, two,

three, four, five, six.

And we'll start with you.

Four. One, two, three, and four.

Let's open that up. See what we got
today.

Oh, you got a blue poker chip. There you
go. And would you hold it just like

that so everybody can see it? Very nice.

What would you like? Number six.

Number six.

Okay. Let's see what we got there.

And we have a blue poker chip. Hold on
to that. Hold it out. Excellent. Your

turn. What would you like? Number one,
please. Number one.

All right. And this is yours, right?
Okay. Number one. Just one picture.

And we've got, oh.

We got a red poker chip.

Excellent. Hold on to that.

And finally, you. Which one would you
like? Number five. Number five.

All right.

And, oh, a blue one. There you go.

Very nice. Hold on to those. Now, you
guys have left me with these two.

Let's open these up and see what we got.
We got a red poker chip.

All righty. And we have another red.

Poker chips.

Very nice. Now, I made a little
prediction before the show. I actually

on this placemat. If I pick it up, you
will see that it says there will be two

red chips remaining.

Yeah!

I know, it's creepy.

Weird, isn't it? But it gets even
better. I also made up a couple other

predictions right here. The first person
will select a blue chip.

Yes!

The second person will also select a
blue chip.

The third person will select a red chip.

And the last person will select a blue
chip.

Do me a favor. All four of you, there's
a floor mat right in front of you. Pick

it up and hold it out so everybody can
see it at this time.

All righty, all the way up. There we go.

Blue chip, blue chip, red chip, blue
chip.

Thank you guys so much. I always look
forward to this next

performance. I cannot wait to see what
they have in store.

Originally from Vietnam, we have Mae
Nguyen.

A close attention.

We would hate for you to miss this next
illusion from Dan Sperry. When we

return.

Moodoo goes back thousands of years and
is a mystical ancient tradition.

This performer appears to have mastered
it and is bringing it right to the very

stage. Here's Dan Sperry.

Magic show!

Okay, so here's the thing.

We got to do something with cards
because it's a magic show. So what I

to do is just make sure they're all
different, right? You know what this is

about. You're going to stick a finger up
in the air.

Nice. You're going to stick it out and
just get a touch in the back of anyone.

It's like, oh, perfect. We'll just go
with that one. I really don't care.

You got the king of hearts. Ooh, right?

So I'm going to take the marker.

I'm going to take the cap off for you so
it's easier. I'm going to hold it like

a billboard. You're going to take that.

The Sharpie end. Draw a picture, write
your name, a little diagram, but

something quick, nice and big, so that
we know that this one's yours and

everybody at home can see it happen with
the Sharpie. That's a permanent marker.

That means it doesn't come or go. It
only stays there. I think that's good

enough.

Is that a happy face?

So you're quite the optimist, aren't
you?

So, Leah, just hold on to that.

Hold it flat. Hold your hand flat. Put
your finger on it like that, like you're

booping his nose. Isn't that cute? I got
the tooth, babe, right? So I'm going to

sign my name.

on it, like that. So now it's not so
weird. So I got my two spades, and

got your king of hearts, which is
interesting, because we've never met

We didn't set this up. But the spades
and the hearts are like doppelgangers.

Now, about this, is that you have the
king, I have the two. We're going to

establish a connection.

We're going to have a little connection
with the two cards. Keep your hand out.

If you would, you're going to hold the
other one above it just a bit.

That's the only other one. So at least
we made it. And what we're going to do

with these two cards is now what's going
to become very interesting. I'm going

to set it there. You're going to
sandwich it. So put your other hand on

Sandwich. I'm going to use a little bit
of heat, a little bit of fire. I'm going

to set your card, your king of hearts,
on fire.

Just like that. I'm going to start with
the corner. As your card burns and

continues. You know what? That's good
enough.

We start small.

It's simple.

So you can see that it burned a little
bit.

Did you feel anything?

Are you kind of pregnant?

It's yes or no. Did you feel anything?

A little bit. A little bit. A little
bit.

Spread them. Your hands. Take a look.

Hold it up and show them.

That is the same water. But wait.

Not good enough.

Not good enough. So hold your hand out
again.

You're going to sandwich it again.

This one, I'm going to leave it with
yours. We're going to dial it up to 11

more time with the lighter.

I have too many other things to worry
about in my pockets.

Am I right?

So we're just going to take it, burn a
little bit more. This time you can see

it. This time, leaving a little black
spot. This time you're going to feel it.

You're going to feel a little bit of
heat.

Let me know when you feel it.

Man, okay.

But now it's going to turn cold.

And when that happens, remember when it
happens here,

burn and singe with the spot there. Burn
and singe on the corner there.

When it happens here, it happens there.
Go ahead. Spread your hand. Show them.

You've got to look on the other side.
That's the side with your happy face.

you get it.

You see it. It's there.

Burn. On the back. Same corner. Same
back spot. We're going to take it one

time. Hold your hand up. Put your other
hand on top.

And don't let anything come or go. What
I want you to do is say stop as I run my

finger along. In a moment, okay?

Just say stop wherever you want.

Right there. Watch.

Do we even need to look?

It might look okay, but it's not.

That's the same corner. That's the same
spot on the back if you line them up.

That's the same side.

That's impossible.

That's the miracle.

And I'm over it. Magic show.

You're done.

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

we return.

This next performer is taking us back to
his roots with one of the first

illusions that he learned in his youth.

Let's give it up for Rob Blake.

Hands up, hands up. Keep your hands up.
Hands up. Hands up.

See?

Raise this hand up.

Raise this hand up.

And this hand up. Everyone else, hands
down. Everyone else, hands down.

May I borrow your ring?

Sure. Actually, we're going to take this
one if we can.

The solid ring. Perfect. Thank you.

Excellent. Very nice.

All right. May I borrow your ring?

And last, may I borrow... Let's take
that ring if we can.

Excellent. The three of you can find
your rings after the show on eBay.

Check this out.

Solid silver band.

Another silver band with a very cool
design on it.

and looks like a nice gold wedding pin.

Keep your eye on those beads.

Check out your links. Turn around. Make
sure it's actually linked, actually

connected together.

Now, all three of you have to go home
together.

I'm just kidding. Take one last look.
You won't forget this.

I'm just like this party.

Keep your eye.

From the orange beef, it's a very cool
design.

Here is yours back. Thank you so much.
And we're not done with yours just yet.

Keep your eye on this gold spring.

Watch.

From a hand, reappearance back on his
hand. Look down at your finger. Hold

hand up high.

Back on his finger.

Let's give it up for this mentalist who
can accomplish what may be one of our

biggest fears in this day and age.

It's Adam Wiley.

I'm here with Kathy. Kathy, do you have
your phone on you by chance?

I do.

Excellent. We're going to do something
awesome.

Now, I need you to open your calculator.

Okay, great. And just make sure it says
zero. You can clear any numbers that may

or may not be on there. Just show
everyone that it says zero.

And I will look at your phone from this
point on.

Go ahead and put in any set of random
numbers into your phone that you'd like.

It doesn't matter how long or short.

And go ahead and show everyone that
number.

Excellent. Now, if you could press the
plus sign.

And do you have a passcode to your
phone, Kathy?

Excellent. Would you mind typing that in
to your phone and showing everyone what

that is?

And then pressing the equal sign so that
those two numbers are added together

and we get an even bigger number. And if
we don't get a bigger number, your

calculator is broken.

Great.

Perfect. Now, could you press the clear
button?

So that none of the numbers show anymore
and it just says zero.

Excellent. It did that? It's going to
say zero if we all look at it together?

Great.

Perfect. You did an excellent job.

Excellent. I'm going to go ahead and
lock your phone.

Now watch.

This is the cool part.

Thank

you

so much.

Thank you, guys.

Welcome up. We are in for a wild ride
with this next act from Lucy Darling.

we return.

The last name of this performer is
exactly how I would describe her. One of

favorite magicians coming all the way
from Canada. She is, of course, Lucy

Darling.

hoping to play a bit of a game of hide
-and -go -seek. Does anyone want to play

hide -and -go -seek with me?

Yes, in the front row. I'm staring
directly at you. Good job. What's your

Alessandro. Alessandro, that's amazing.
That was my grandmother's name.

It's true, she was quite an odd sort of
lady, you know. She was so odd, in fact,

she used to present each of the newborn
babies in my family with these engraved

silver rattles.

Oh, I should explain. This was mine.

Alessandro, darling. You know what this
is?

Shafer. Darling, have you ever
discovered what the different sections

martini shaker are called?

No. Okay, this is a cup.

What about this little strainer bit?

Oh, wow, good job, Ali.

What about this top bit?

Top. Oh, wow, good job.

This is a little cherry.

It's a kind of fruit. Have you ever had
fruit before?

Darling, you and I are about to play a
perfectly innocent game of hide the

cherry.

Here is the game. I shall attempt to
hide the cherry from your game.

And each time I do, it's your job to
guess where it might be hiding.

Here we go.

Alessandro. Yes?

Where is the cherry?

On top of the cup. Why are you
whispering?

All right, you can sing with your whole
voice, darling. And now?

Inside the cup. Inside the cup. You're
doing very well, darling. Now, you are

out of gear.

Where would you say it is now?

In my hand. Remember how last time it
was not in my hand?

I tried to help you, darling. Yes,
number two.

Under the cup. Under the cup?

No, oh, poor baby, I know.

It's almost as if it's a magic show.

Alessandro, maybe there's one more place
it could be hiding.

Under the top. Oh, under the top? No,
that's impossible.

Unless, of course, indeed it is a magic
show.

how you seem weirdly uncomfortable with
it. Instead, we'll focus on the little

guy. Don't worry, they're usually more
grateful anyway.

Alessandro.

Where is the cherry?

At the top of the top. Well done, top of
the top. And now?

Inside the top.

Inside the top. You are so good at this.
Look how smart and charming you are.

Okay, this is where it gets confusing.

Oh, oh no.

Alessandro, there's someone behind you.

Alessandro. Oh, no. Did you see him? He
just left. How rude. What a rude

man.

In a moment, I'm going to ask you a
question. But before I ask you, I'd like

remind you that it's impolite to mention
a lady's undergarments in public.

Are we on the spot?

Okay.

Alessandro, where is Jerry?

Remember how it's not in my hand not
even one time? Not one time. It's a

shot. Okay, guess number two.

Under the strainer. Under the strainer,
which is somehow shorter than the actual

cherry, but good guess.

I guess you don't consult on anything
with spatial reasoning. That's fine.

Guess number three.

The top.

The top.

Darling, of course, you were a bit set
up. Because, in fact, I am a magician

is always going to be in the last place.

Under the cup, inside the shot glass.

There she is.

I'll be very good, darling. You are
doing a very good job. A very good man.

And my grandmother always used to say
that a good man's like a good dream.

They make strangers more interesting,
friends more agreeable, and get the

out of your best satin.

So it's you tonight, darling. I'd like
to propose a toast.

It's your place, I see.

And you're kind of God.

Cheers.

Well, that's it for this edition of
Masters of Illusion. We hope you'll join

next time for more amazing magic.

Until then, I'm Dean Cain. Thank you for
watching.
