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.

Expect the unexpected and prepare to be astounded. Welcome to Masters of

Illusion. I'm Dean Cain, and I'll be your host.

for the evening as we explore the mysterious world of magic.

So let's tap into our imaginations. Hey, wait.

Farrell Dillon, everybody.

Let's tap into Farrell Dillon for a second as we start the show.

So look, you spent years being Superman, right? Yes. Did you ever practice deep

vision? I tried. I got a book of matches, right? I just want you to stare

this book of matches.

Well, no, to use the heat vision.

That's what I was trying to do. You've got to imagine it. Are you going to take

the glass? All right.

Ready?

Just keep looking.

That is real magic.

Merrill Dillon, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you very much.

Give it up for me.

Get ready for a heart -pounding performance because these performers are

to show you what it means to really push the limit. Of course, it's none other

than Deadly Games.

Slowly rise.

When it comes to the arts of magic, this performer is a true master.

She knows how to captivate audiences with her stunning sorcery and leave them

wanting more. Without further ado, please welcome Yana Felicito.

The impossible is made possible by Noah Stone.

Next.

Now this magician you're about to see is not just any magician.

He's an illusionist who's known for pushing the limits of what's possible.

So please welcome to the stage the incredible Noah Stone.

I need something from somebody here.

Does anyone have a driver's license with them?

Right here?

What's your name?

Zach. Zach, will you join me up here on stage? Everybody, Zach!

Can you take your ID out for us all?

Great. I will take this. And then, Zach, just so that nobody steals your

information, I've also got some tape here. We're going to tape over your

personal information, Zach, but you can still see your photo on that light.

Yeah? Great. We've got a marker here.

Will you sign your name on your license?

Spell it out. There we go.

So now we can see Zach's name on his ID. We're going to put that inside of this

envelope, okay?

And then we're going to seal that shut.

We're going to seal this up.

Will you hold your license out like this?

Perfect. Good.

Now, on my way here, I picked up these.

Bah! They're expired gift cards.

Will you hold on to that?

Will you hold on to this?

Will you hold on to this? Will you place that gift card inside of the envelope?

Good. Perfect. I'll take this.

I'll take this. I'll take this as well. Thank you.

And so now we've got three gift cards inside of the envelope.

And we've got your license.

And if we take your license and we put it inside with the other one, and then I

start to mix those up.

You can see how it becomes a little bit more difficult to tell which one of

those has your ID in it. We're going to number these envelopes one by one so

that you can see them, okay? So that is number one.

Hold that out for everybody.

That is number two.

Dude, this is like our game show moment right now.

That is number three.

Hold it out.

And then that is number four.

Hold that out.

In a second, I want you to hand me any one of those envelopes that you don't

want. Ready?

Zach, handing me an envelope now.

Envelope number four.

Zach, are you sure about this choice?

I'm certain.

I like the confidence. In that case, envelope number four is out of the game.

number one. You're sure about that. You don't want to switch? Go for it.

Envelope number one is out of the game.

Two more left.

Envelope number three or envelope number two.

Zach, this is the important choice.

So being confident of your choice, hand me an envelope now.

Envelope number two.

I hope you trust me.

One more out of the game.

Zach, Look, I'll get the process started here.

Will you rip that the rest of the way open and show everybody your driver's

license? Yes?

I am so sorry.

Actually, hold on a second. Hold on. Hold on. Hold on, Zach.

Hold on a second. Let me just check my notes. Let me just check my notes. Okay.

Look, driver's license roulette.

Driver's license roulette. We got it right there. Driver's license roulette.

Find someone who trusts me. Look, Zach, there's a drawing of us as friends. I

made sure to make a real big point about the fact that we're friends. Look,

borrow their license. That was my best approximation of what I thought Zach

looked like, and I think I nailed it. We did it. We did a good job.

But then look, look, look. Next page. Next page. Look, look, look. Okay. Mix

with three gift cards. We did that. One, two, three, four. Cut them up. And then

look. Scissors. Boom. Right there. One, two, three. We cut them up. And then

look. One left. And it's you looking sad with a gift card. Look. Right there. I

nailed it. But Zach, if this is going according to plan, then on the next

make the license appear here.

No. Zach, I'll take the gift card.

Take it. Take it. Take it. Tell everybody in a big, loud voice, yes or

When we come back, the impossible is made possible by Matthew O 'Neill.

They say that magic is all about the element of surprise.

And this performer knows exactly how to keep our audience guessing. Let's

welcome Matthew O 'Neill.

How many of you remember the first time you were really inspired by somebody?

Because nobody? All right, great.

That's all right. Look, sometimes that happens.

But I do want to tell you a story. When I was about seven, my mom took me to the

circus. And this very mysterious guy leads this beautiful silver elephant

the middle of the ring. And the elephant gets up onto these beams and starts

balancing in these ethereal and hypnotic ways. And then he puts these four

panels up around, calls some kid in the front row to say the magic words. And I

was the kid. I got to say the magic words.

So I got to say abracadabra, and then he looked back, and when the panels

dropped, the elephant disappeared.

And it was crazy because that was the first time that I witnessed real magic.

And I say real magic because in that moment, I really felt like anything was

possible.

So that's exactly what we're going to do right now. We're going to make an

elephant disappear.

What's the elephant's name?

Sparkle.

Sparkle the elephant.

We're going to give Sparkle the elephant a little bit of privacy.

So now we can't get to Sparkle the elephant.

Through the side or through the back. And you know there's no secret trap

because she's on an elevated platform and you can see through everything.

We got it. It's okay.

It's okay.

Okay.

This is the most difficult bit. It's the roof.

Little hat.

Ooh, okay, now you can breathe.

And clap.

Oh, no, no, no, it's okay.

What are the magic words to meet you?

I would say...

Wow!

and the unbelievable talent of Ed Alonzo. After this.

This magician is not just an illusionist. He's an entertainer. He

perfect combination of comedy and magic to the stage, leaving audiences laughing

and bewildered at the same time. Get ready to experience the wit and talent

Ed Alonzo.

The legendary Harry Dean escaped from neck stocks,

handcuffs, and leg shackles, just like these.

And he did it in record -breaking accuracy.

He would be out in just under 35 minutes.

Well, unfortunately, I don't have that kind of time.

The producer said, cram this trick into a two -minute segment.

In addition...

I'll be locked inside of that titanium -lined coffin.

And next to me, yes, next to me will be those dicks

of dynamite.

Ooh, careful with my hair.

Wish me luck.

I'm okay.

Oops.

There goes an eye. My hair is still looking good.

Ah, oops, a little soap here.

What

an

unforgettable evening of magic.

and wonder. Thank you from all of us here at Masters of Illusion. Until next

time, I'm Dean Cain. Thank you.
