♪♪♪

We got a lot of great stuff when we shot at Skip's Chicago Dogs,

an insanely busy hot dog joint in Atlanta.

Ironically, the show moved to Chicago two years later.

But to date, we've yet to shoot

at any hot dog places in the Windy City.

Hey, how you doing? Welcome to Skip's.

Yeah, I need to pick up an order for Brian.

Pickup for Brian? Hamburgers.

20 hamburgers? Brian order.

Is that it? Yeah.

Brian.

It's 20? Yeah, he said...

Is this mine? I think so.

He ordered a bunch of them.

Oh, for an office? Yeah.

Okay, napkins.

It's really 20? Yeah.

There's 1, 2, 3...

They're separated by napkins, Oh.

...4, 5, 6,

7, 8...

There's some ketchup for you. Awesome.

When I pack them, I feel confident about it,

but if someone else did it...

That's 9, 10, 11, 12...

There's a dog in here. Is that too?

Um...

Hot dog. They probably threw it in there.

Usually if it's a big order, they help you out.

...13...

Got some extra hot sauce in here, too.

We always give out cashews, as well.

I do a lot of these endless-bag type tricks,

and they never get old for me, often because my magic team

enjoys surprising me with unsuspecting items

that they put in there, like the cashews.

On an earlier take, I pulled out a bagel.

...18, 19,

and that's 20.

And then...

20. There's a free soda in there.

I had that on the bottom, so...

How the hell did all of that fit in there?

You had a soda in that bag?

Yeah, if I put it on the bottom...

I should give you a lid, though.

That's crazy.

Yeah. Alright, great.

Let me get you another bag.

Yeah.

Yeah, the trick is to go downside, upside,

and then you put them all that way, so...

Did you pack that bag?

I didn't pack this one. Oh.

Yeah, because if I packed it, I wouldn't have had to count it.

'Cause, you know, I take great pride in that.

Put those all in there.

I put three sideways and three forwards.

It's like up and down, and then you can fit two,

one along the side there, one along the side.

It's like building a log cabin, you know what I mean?

And once there's a flat layer, I can do this on top

and then push it... down.

And then you make another layer like you're layering chocolates.

Wow. And I do three.

And then I put two on the side like that.

It's like a whole nother layer.

That's skill.

I mean, I don't even know how there's a drink in there.

Oh, yeah.

Well, I've had to keep it on the bottom so it doesn't spill.

It's not leaking, is it? No, no.

Oh, that's why he put the hot dog in,

so that it'll make a flat layer.

Oh.

Yeah, so that's a flat layer on the top.

And these'll help, too.

What are these?

Yeah, cashews.

People put them on top of the hamburgers?

Yeah, if you can get them on the side there.

And then I'll do another layer of napkins like that.

Yeah. That's wild.

Yeah, and then I have a whole nother layer on the bottom.

Yeah, we call them packing cashews.

You're freaking me out.

There's 20 hamburgers in that bag?

Do you want me to count them again?

Come on. No, I'm just saying.

Where's the drink? The drink is...

I just can't believe all that fit in the bag.

Yeah. And it looks so small.

Yeah. It's way on the bottom.

It's just blowing my mind a little bit.

Yeah. See?

The soda's way on the bottom. No, I know.

That's why I do a napkin layer.

We used to do contests.

That's wild.

Yeah, you can just keep forcing it down with layers

as long as it's flat.

Alright. Here you go.

See, the cup was way bigger than that.

What the hell?

Are you tricking me right now?

Nope. There you go.

Let me get you a plastic bag.

What the hell?

Dude, there's no way there's a cup in that bag.

Just keep it upright because the soda on the bottom,

it has a lid, but if the soda's

on the very bottom, it could...

Shut up.

...it could spill.

Are you kidding me right now?

Well, keep it in the plastic.

It'll be fine with it in the plastic.

Man, what the hell just happened?

Where did all the food go?

It's packed in there, Chicago style.

Oh, my Gosh. What the hell?

That's crazy.

♪♪♪

Now, it took me so long to pack, unpack,

and then repack her food that by the time this trick was over,

so was the lunchtime rush.

With the coast clear of customers,

I decided to let Carissa know the truth

about the endless sack of burgers.

Check out this never-before-seen clip.

I can't leave with that bag.

No, I packed it using the Carbonaro Effect.

Have you never heard of the Carbonaro Effect?

Well, it's the name of a hidden-camera magic TV show.

What if I told you my name is Michael Carbonaro.

I'm a magician. What the hell?

Where's the burgers?

They're in here.

Yeah, just hold it like that.

Oh, hey. How are you doing?

Good. How are you?

I'm doing okay. Welcome.

I called in an order for Jessica.

It's a Philly and a fry.

Philly and fry for Jessica.

We got Philly and fry for Jessica coming?

Alright, it's coming right up.

You're so lucky. Why?

Oh, no, I can't eat the Philly cheese steaks.

Oh. I probably shouldn't.

No, I can't.

I have, like, allergies to cheese and bread.

Oh, no! It'll probably upset my stomach,

but it's totally worth it to me.

Oh, yeah.

Well, if I could eat it, I would eat --

Oops. Sorry.

If I could eat it, I would eat it, but I just, you know...

It's bad news if I touch it or eat any of the food here.

I mean, it's good food. Don't get me wrong.

I'm just saying, I would totally wig out.

It's cheese and bread or anything like that,

but I have a good handle on what I'm doing, so...

I've been working in fast food since I was 14, so...

Lactose intolerant, and I just get weird hives and itchy.

Oh.

Besides magic, I have a real passion

for special makeup effects, and I'm proud to say, I designed

and applied all of these disgusting zits myself.

I can't handle the food.

Before every shoot at a business,

I huddle up with the actual employees

Let me see if we had any left.

We had some of the deluxes in here?

There are deluxes in there, right?

It's the best one, the deluxe.

These are the ones that come pre-packaged.

No, that's the burgers.

Mm-hmm. That's good.

Steaming hot, too, right?

Mm-hmm. Yeah.

And you didn't boil it or nothing?

No, they boil it before they ship it.

Every morning, we have them shipped overnight,

and then they decompress them.

So, they have, you know,

a machine that sucks the air out of it.

Good. No onions. Yay.

And no onions.

I dug for one with no onions for you.

Thank you. Yeah.

Okay, you got me. I'll be back.

Don Scott, the owner of Scott Antique Markets

is a fan of the show,

and he gave us the run of this place.

It's a massive event, and to avoid detection,

we had to set up our cameras and equipment

in the dead of night,

before the 3,500 other booth owners arrived.

I'm enjoying it. Yeah?

A lot of people come in here?

Oh, yeah.

Lot of hot chicks.

Yeah?

That's how you get chicks?

No.

You're not getting any chicks with these.

No. I think they'd run away.

Well, as long as they stay in the case, you know.

That is creepy, though.

Yeah, that is pretty creepy.

Ugh. That doesn't bug you out?

Yeah.

Are these the tempered glass ones or, like, the acrylic?

This feels like acrylic.

Acrylic? I think it is.

They can get kind of melty if they're acrylic.

You should tell people this,

that this one's definitely tempered because it gets warm.

And then what? The spider comes through it?

And then they can come out, yeah.

Man, where am I at?

Yeah. Are you kidding me.

Oh, my -- He's looking pretty creeped out over there.

Yeah, man.

No, this is why this is so expensive.

These are genuine antique -- This isn't open nowhere.

No, but the acrylic has a time release if it's tempered.

The acrylic will stay, and the time release one

can be able to find its way out, you know?

Someone could really freak out, you know, if they're handling it

Oh, these are great. These original?

Yeah, 'cause I was gonna say, they're all original.

Yeah.

That's that artist, Don Colwell.

Oh, you're familiar with -- Yeah.

Those are great.

Do you have anything.

I have one Don Colwell,

but I don't have one with a horse on it.

How much is that?

This one is going for $1,400.

$1,400? Mm-hmm.

And the other Colwell up there?

$2,400.

What is it? $2,400.

Oh, can I see that? Sure.

You want which one? Yeah.

The one with the barn. Yeah.

That's beautiful.

Look at that. That's just gorgeous.

You know, he would hide horses in all of his paintings,

but the ones where they were prominent were...

Yeah, this one's got it, like, hidden here in the doorway here.

What happened to the horse?

You can see his tail right here, inside of the barn here.

You know? What happened...

It seemed like there was a bigger horse there.

Yeah, you know, he didn't always paint them big.

He kind of kept them like a secret in some of them.

It's just that I feel crazy.

I feel like there was just a horse on that picture.

Well, some say you can sort of see always an intention

of a horse in his work.

As an artist, everything you do has essence

of what's important to you, and for Don, it was horses.

But that one has an obvious horse, you know?

Unless you see it. I don't know.

My eyes playing tricks on me.

Your eyes are playing tricks on you?

I guess that they could have been.

Why?

I don't know exactly what's going on.

I don't know. It could've been me.

Maybe just looking back between the two.

Wait, what are you saying?

I saw a horse on the picture earlier.

You thought you saw a horse on this one?

Yeah, and not that one, but it's just bizarre

that I could've sworn that I saw a horse there and not there.

Oh, so you saw a horse on the barn one.

I thought I did. Oh.

Yeah, I know, but clearly it's not there.

Right. Did you see the horse in there?

Honestly, I hadn't noticed it, so...

prominently. Yeah.

It could be like I just looked and then looked away.

Maybe the horse is galloping from painting to painting.

It could be.

If that's the case, then it's definitely time for me to move.

So you don't get trampled.

Right, exactly. Alright.

Well, seeing is believing. Right.

So, it's not here.

♪♪♪

On the first take of this trick,

the person didn't even notice the moving horse at all.

But we were able to nail it one more time with Jessica

as you're about to see in this never-aired clip.

He loved his horses, and that was like the whole reason

they're expensive.

Yeah. Can I see that painting?

This one? The barn.

The barn. Yeah.

You guys always have such nice frames, too.

Whoops.

Yeah, I mean, that's what he was saying.

A lot of people want the frames.

Yeah, sometimes you buy it

just for the frame.

Yeah, I like that one.

Where would you hang something like that?

I would hang it in my bedroom.

In you bedroom? That's nice.

It's a good living room painting, no?

Yeah, it is.

It's good for the living room or bedroom,

but at the same time, you want to have horse

be the theme, you know?

But that's the cheaper one, though.

I mean, I just miss the ones

that he had with the horse on them.

What?

Those are more -- Where did the horse go?

No, the horse ones are more expensive.

No, I'm saying, why is the horse not on the picture anymore?

Because when his horse ran away,

he stopped painting them with --

There was just. Oh, my God.

Oh, no, this one's horse. This one's --

Oh, my God. Are you kidding me?

What are you doing?

After his horse ran away, they just were kind of boring.

Is there a camera somewhere?

This is crazy. Wait.

That one's how much?

Will he reduce the price if I get just this frame?

Like, is this a more expensive frame?

No, he won't reduce the price.

Yeah. Yeah.

Alright, I just always wanted a Colwell with a horse on it.

Oh, my God.

What in the world? Poppie.

That was his horse, Poppie, that

he would paint as his signature.

What is your name? Like...

Michael. Michael?

Yeah.

The horse was just on that picture.

Now you're trying to sell me.

You're like, "It has a horse. I promise."

No. No, no, no.

That doesn't count.

I mean, it's like there's a shadow of it,

and I think that's what he used to do, is...

I'm really confused right now.

Sometimes, he would hide the horse, but...

Yeah.

Oh, my goodness. Yeah.

I'm gonna think about it.
