10x14 - Brought to You by the Letter P

[bunniefuu]

- From the Penn
and Teller Theater

at the Rio Hotel in Las Vegas,

here's our host, Brooke Burke!

- Namaste, everyone.
Welcome to "Fool Us."

Life is good,
and it's about to get better

because we've got four of
the best magicians in the world

ready to blow your mind.

So take a deep breath

and get ready for
the Zen masters of magic,

Penn and Teller.

Penn and Teller reward
any magician who fools them

with a life changing gift
of a "Fool Us" trophy,

plus a slot
in their Las Vegas spectacular.

So, let's bring
our first magician out,

front and center.

- I'm Jacob Schenstrom
from Sweden.

I thought I should be a magician
when I finished high school

but I did a ski season,
and then I fell in love.

So, I became a ski instructor

and an outdoor guide
in the summer,

which was a lot of fun.

And I still did magic,
but it wasn't my primary focus.

But now I do what I should
have done when I was 20.

I'm a full time magician.

I used to do a lot of cruises
between Sweden and Finland,

and there I noticed the audience
are a little bit different.

Swedish audiences
aren't like American ones.

They don't show
their emotions as much.

But magic helps people
let their guard down,

so we can all enjoy it together.

Tonight, I'm putting my own
innovative spin

on a classic of magic.

You might think you know it,
Penn and Teller,

but I will use that against you.

- This next magician hails
from Malmo, Sweden.

Put your hands together
for Jacob Schenstrom.

Jacob Schenstrom, everyone.

Wow, that was amazing.

Thank you, thank you.

- Who is your biggest supporter?

- I think my family,
for sure, yeah.

- I hope so.

- My daughter,
she's just, like, five,

so, she's
a little bit skeptical.

- So, do you have to do
lots of magic tricks

for all of her friends
when they come over?

- Yeah, it works now,

but when she's, like 17, I
probably should stop with that.

- You never know,
you never know.

And do you do big magic?

My specialty is, like,
close up magic,

but I do stage shows
as well, yeah.

- What do you think
is more difficult

to mesmerize the audience?

- Actually, I think
stage shows, for me.

It's, like...
People think it's harder

when you can see it
really close,

but it's also easier for me
to misdirect them.

- Okay, Jacob, let's see
if Penn and Teller

spotted all your magic movies.

- All right.
- Boys?

Jacob, what a wonderful,

magical... just, complicated,
every move possible in there.

Levitations, and vanishes,
and appearances.

And, you know, we did
the cups and ba*ls

with clear plastic cups,

and our way of doing that

was to, supposedly,
expose how the magic was done.

You're able to use a clear glass

and actually make it magical.

Not give away anything.

The moves on that
were really, really beautiful.

It's just a wonderful routine

that has not just one kind
of magic,

but many, many kinds of magic.

And we just loved you,
and we love Sweden.

Sweden is great, they've got
a load of water there.

I've seen so many things
in Sweden.

I've seen ditches in Sweden.

You've got
a steel industry there.

And the IKEA makes
this wonderful,

fantastic, amazing furniture.

Just amazing tables.

Sweden is wonderful.
You're wonderful.

We love you, we love Sweden,

but we don't think
you fooled us.

- That was...
- Yeah.

- That was loaded
with code words.

Did they figure it out?

- I think so, yeah, yeah.
They did.

- Well, we really
loved your act.

Thank you so much.

- Thank you.
- Jacob Schenstrom, everyone.

- Thank you.
- Thank you.

You never know what might
magically appear on "Fool Us."

So, come back and find out.

- Welcome back.

This next act has a history
with Penn and Teller.

And it's not all good.

Take a look.

- I'm Ondrej, and here I am

in the beautiful city of Prague.

A lot has changed
since my first appearance

on "Fool Us."

I have a beautiful
young daughter,

thanks to my partner, Hanka.

I fooled Penn and Teller
three times, already

and I get the idea that Penn
does not like me.

He makes fun of my name...

- I do not want to say,

"Here's someone who
fooled us, 'Sprinchinska'."

- He yells at me.

- It was just a sad, tired,
pathetic Ondrej,

sitting in his room,
going "Me. Me."

- He threatens me.

- Don't make a move.

I'll hit you in the face.

- And even so, here we go again.

- All the way from Prague,

expect the unexpected
from Ondrej Psenicka.

- Hello, Penn.

You threatened to punch me
in the face

the last time I fooled you,

so I decided
to show up virtually

the fourth time around.

I figure 5747 miles

should be
a safe enough distance.

And for an extra
bit of protection,

this year
I brought reinforcements.

Welcome to the Ondrej-verse.

- Pleased to meet you.
- Hope you guessed our name.

- It's Psenicka.
- Shay...

- Nich...
- Ka.

- So, here we are,

my fourth appearance
on "Fool Us."

- And this time I am going
to do the impossible.

I... or we... are going to make
a prediction

of something
you are going to say

but have not said yet.

- This trick is done
with just a green screen

and a view of my clones.

And maybe you think that
we're all just pre-recorded.

I'm definitely
pre-recorded.

- But if we were pre-recorded
how would you explain this?

Ondrejs, get your Penn and
Teller fooling weapons ready.

Ready.

- Guys, I forgot

my Penn and Teller
fooling weapon.

- For God's sake.

- Thank me.
- And action.

- Okay, so now that we

have written down
our predictions...

With permanent markers,
no less...

Let's find out if you will
express what we predicted.

- Penn, I have a question
for you.

If I fool you again,
what will you say?

- Is that the best you got?

You really say just?

I am mildly offended.

- Why is he always mean to us?

I mean, seriously, Penn,

we need to do something
about our relationship.

- How about dinner in Prague?

- Couldn't we invite
Teller instead?

- Speaking of Teller,
same question.

How would you feel
if I fooled you again?

- We'd appreciate it

if you were a little kinder
than Penn.

So, if we fooled you again

it would be like
a slap in the face?

I'm going to take that
as a compliment.

- Sorry.

- All right, enough of us
exchanging pleasantries.

Or, not so pleasantries
in Penn's case.

It is time for us to show you

our seemingly
impossible prediction.

- Penn said a word
that rhymes with duck!

- And Teller's reaction
was like a slap in the face.

Ondrej Psenicka, everyone.

- I'm sorry, but I really need
to go to the bathroom.

Just pretend I'm still here.

Sorry.

Excuse me.

- Penn, Teller,
we'll talk to you later.

I just can't wait
to talk to Brooke.

Hi Brooke.
- Hi.

For Penn's sake,
could you give a lesson

on how to correctly
pronounce your name?

- I think there is someone
who can answer that question

better than we can.

Okay.

- So nice to meet you.
- Hello Teller, Hello Penn.

And Brooke.
- It's a pleasure.

And I'm gonna be
much nicer to you

than these guys were last time.

- Well, I'm sure.

- Is this a traditional
Czech costume?

- Socks in those shoes, yes.

That's very, very Czech.

- And the no pants?

- You like?
- I do. I do.

Hopefully Penn and Teller
are gonna like them.

So, Ondrej, you already have
three "Fool Us" trophies.

Do you feel like you have to do
a bigger trick

when you come back here
for the fourth time?

- Yes. Actually for
the last two seasons

I always had a trick.

The first one was too expensive
to make.

And the second one
was too complicated.

So, this time I came up
with something

that is both expensive
and complicated.

- I was just gonna say,
that was pretty complicated.

- Yes.
- Yeah.

All right, Ondrej,

let's see if you
and your five clones

have fooled Penn and Teller.

Are you ready?
- Let's see.

- Are you ready, everyone?

Boys?

- Ondrej,
you puh-sneaky b*stard.

You are so sneaky.

You have fooled us three times.

One, two, three.

And now you come back

with one, two, three,
four, five, six of you

to try to fool us
for the fourth time.

We loved you coming out live
at the end.

We loved the trick of you
being all over the world.

The technology
and the hard work you put in.

If people don't know
how hard you work on these

they should go back
and watch the last one.

We know you're willing
to put in hours, and days,

and weeks, and months,

and also being puh-sneaky.

Insanely puh-sneaky
is what you are.

- Is that a code word?
- So, we watch this thing

with six Ondrejs
going to great lengths

as you pop from one place,
to another place,

to another place,
to another place.

Anyway, you've won three times.
Three times.

And we have a little bit
of good news for you.

And that is that I will not
use that four letter obscenity

and Teller will not slap you
in your face

because you have fooled us
as of now three times.

We got this one, man.
Next time. Next time.

- Slightly...
- Wow!

My goodness.

You are great.

- Do they know how
you did your trick?

- I'm sure they do.

- Thank you, Ondrej. Thank you.

- Thank you, Ondrej.
- Thank you so much.

- Thank you so much.

Okay, Penn and Teller,
you fooled me that time.

After that great trick

I think we could all
use a break.

Just a little one though,

because we've got a lot more
"Fool Us" coming up.

- Welcome back to "Fool Us."

Take a look
at our next trickster.

- Hi, I'm John Lewit.
I'm from Las Vegas.

I'm originally from Milwaukee,
Beer Town.

My dad was a millwright
so I became one too.

What's a millwright?

Well, a millwright installs
and repairs equipment.

A lot of it involves
conveyor belts.

Even those little ones
in the supermarket.

That's me.

But I really love magic.

And with some help
from my parents,

I opened my first magic shop.

I could make anything appear...

Except customers.

So, that didn't last too long.

My grandfather worked
at a brewery his whole life.

So when I got a job there
I figured I had a job for life.

So, I risked my savings

and opened my second magic shop

with my wife, Betsy.

That brewery closed
a few years later.

That was
a disappearing trick.

So much for a lifetime job.

I'm retired now
and I could be fishing.

But I hate fishing.

And I love magic.

So, I'm performing
every chance I get.

Penn, Teller,
maybe I'll fool you,

but if I don't
I'm already retired.

What are you gonna do? Fire me?

- Flying in from Las Vegas,
please welcome John Lewit.

- Greetings pleasant people

and patrons
of the performing arts.

At the present time
I am pleased to present

a perplexing, peculiar,
yet profound piece

of performance prestidigitation
for your pleasure.

I am proud to proclaim
this presentation

"The Pudding Paradox."

As you can plainly perceive

I've a petite bowl packed
with a plethora of quarters.

Perhaps I can persuade Brooke
to participate?

- Absolutely.
- And partake of a coin

from this pile of prosperity.

- Okay. Hi.

- Take the pen also
and place upon the coin

your personal initials,
making them pitch black.

Then, on the opposite side
of the coin

if you'd place a picture,
perhaps a prime number,

even a postal code,
whatever you prefer.

Patience please while
this person places upon the coin

their personal
and private particulars

in a position privy
only to themselves.

At this point
you may be pondering

whether it is possible for me
to prolong

this prodigious procession
of preposterous patter.

Well, that's practically
impossible to properly predict.

Brooke... complete?
- Complete.

- I'll take the pen.
- Okay.

- Please present the piece
to the camera

for public perusal.

Perfect.

Please preserve your purchase
upon the coin

as you perambulate
to a prominent position

posterior to the pan of pudding.

- Okay.
- In other words,

hold onto the coin
as you walk over

and stand behind the pudding.
- Okay, good.

Please, place the coin
upon the pudding. Yup.

- Okay. Here we go.

Plop.

- Perfect.

I shall now push the coin
into the pudding

to preclude
any possible perception

or way to pinpoint
it's precise position.

To further compound
the perplexity of the procedure

Brooke, if you would,
please pick up the bowl

and pour, slowly, yet pell-mell,

that passel of quarters
upon the pudding.

- Okay. You ready?

How is it?

Is it pistachio?
- Perfect.

Please, use a spatula

and proceed
to produce pandemonium

amongst the pocket change.

- Okay.

- I shall prohibit my pupils
from perceiving the process.

- Okay.

- Presently I shall attempt

to pick out and procure

the one and only coin

with Brooke's personal
and private

particulars upon it.

Can I plausibly pull this off?

Probably not.
- Quite possibly.

- Nevertheless, I shall proceed
post haste.

- Okay.

This okay here?
- Perfect.

No. No!

No.

No way. No way.

- Perhaps if I suck
every particle of pudding

from upon the coin
and apply these pliers

to prevent hanky-panky,

Brooke...

No way. My goodness.

Wow. That's my coin. Both sides.

John Lewit, everyone!

- Bless you.
- Can I help you?

How much fun to do
a play on words like that?

Not quite as easy
as you might think.

- I am sure. I mean, how do you
prepare for that?

- Practice.
- Practice.

- Takes a lot of work.

And once when performing
"The Pudding Paradox"

I did accidentally swallow
a few quarters.

It was okay though,

it turns out I just needed
the change.

- How do you come up
with these ideas?

- This was originally developed
for a magic club meeting.

I wanted something different

that nobody had ever seen before

and, well, this is what
I came up with.

- And what do you hope
that the audience experiences

during your performances?

- Well, first and foremost,
that they have fun.

That they enjoy it.

I try to bring a little humor
to my magic.

And also to realize

that everything in this world
is not just cut and dried,

it's not black and white,

there's a lot of mystery
in this world.

- All right, let's pass it over
to Penn and Teller

to apart your pudding ploy.

Are we ready?
- Very good.

- Boys?

- Primo performance.

Pole to pole.

This prestidigitation
we appreciated

in every particular.

Perfect patter.

Pretty pants,
patent leather shoes.

Props that were
particularly pedestrian.

Puzzling to most people.

But Penn and his partner...

pray that we have proved
that maybe we got the picture.

- Apparently you have penetrated

the particulars
of my performance.

I applaud you.

- Perfect.

- You didn't fool them,

but you were the most fun
that I've had all day.

Thank you so much
for being here.

- Thank you.
- Come back and play with us.

- I will.
- John Lewit, everyone!

Applause, applause.

We have plenty of performances
post these profitable pauses.

- Welcome back, everyone.

Let's see if Penn and Teller

can figure out
our next magician.

- Hi there, I'm Chris Capehart.

I am 65 years old.

And I am now
a Master of the Mind.

I've been knowing
Penn and Teller

for a long time.

We used to work together
on the streets of Philadelphia.

I will now show you
something amazing.

And incredible.

It was hard work.

You worked on the street
day in and day out

until you got the thing right.

And let me tell you something...

I've learned a lot.

Last time I was on "Fool Us"
Penn made a bet with me,

I got really scared.

- Teller loves your shoes.
- He does?

- We're gonna take a guess here.

If we are right
Teller gets the shoes.

- I was a little surprised
to tell you the truth actually,

when I fooled them.

- You gonna take your shoes off?
- No, 'cause you're wrong.

I've got a really good trick.

Hope they enjoy it,
but hope I fool them.

Penn and Teller,
prepare yourself,

'cause I'm gonna take home
another trophy.

- Please welcome

Penn and Teller's
old Philly friend,

Chris Capehart.

- Hey! All right.

Boy, glad to see people.
I love this. Okay.

Hey, I want to invite
Penn and Teller up here

because I can't see them
down there.

Come up here.

I, mean, I'm...

Very difficult to see.
You look good, man.

- Hey, my old friend.
- You look good.

- You too, man.
- You look okay.

Hey, look, I... I know
you don't know this about me,

but I have lately become
a Master of the Mind.

Yeah.

I've actually put numbers
in people's head,

and I'm gonna do
something different.

I'm not going
to shuffle any cards

or do any cuts,
or anything like that.

I'm gonna do
a very simple thing.

And before I start,
I brung you a present.

Notice the front says... Okay?

Okay, just hang on...
But don't open that.

Don't do a thing.
Just keep it in your lap.

You're gonna need your hands,
but you're gonna...

And for you, here's what
we're gonna do.

- I don't get anything?
- Yeah, you get the cards.

- Okay.
- Okay? Okay.

Okay, here's the trick,
here's the trick.

I'm gonna ask you
to do something very simple.

I'm gonna ask you to raise up
between one four fingers.

Three fingers.
Three fingers is cool.

How about you?
Do the same thing.

Two fingers.
We've got two numbers.

Would you like to have 23 or 32?

- 23.
- I like 23.23 is good.

Would you mind removing
23 cards from there?

And make sure
you see every card.

- See every card?
- Yeah, yeah.

Just all 23. Just keep going.
- Two.

- I want you to see every card.
- Three. Four.

- All of them.
- Five. Six.

- All of them. Keep it up.
- Seven. Eight.

- You're very good at this.
- 9.10.11.12.

- Home schooled?
- 13.14.

- You're very good.
- 15.16.17.18.

19.20.21.22.23.

- Turn it up. Just turn it up.

Put 23 cards down.
And put the next one here.

- Okay.
- Okay.

Now people... You looked
at all the cards, right?

- I sure did.
- I put one card in one place.

- Okay.
- In the whole deck.

- Sure.
- And you saw the whole deck.

- I sure did.
- Turn the rest of them over.

Just lay them down. Just turn
them all over at one time.

- Like this?
- Yeah, yeah.

You just lay them down.
- Okay.

- Yeah, yeah.
I'll take them for you.

Obviously you have issues.
Okay, okay.

It's okay. Okay.

Let's just get crazy. Okay.

But this trick is not for you.

This is trick is for him.

- Okay.
- Okay?

I gave you a bag.

Which you had all the time.

And don't forget...
Keep remembering.

I earned this title,
Master of the Mind...

You can make any number
you want, right?

Open the bag up.

Wow. And card.

- Seven of hearts right there.
- And turn that over.

- Seven of hearts.
- There it is.

People, now...
Now, here's the thing about it.

That's not it.

No. That's not it.

- Teller gets
those shoes, though?

- Teller keeps the shoes.

That's what
you wanted last time.

- Because he's not
getting these, okay?

That bet we made last time,

I ain't taking
no chances no more.

- Okay.
- Because they don't know.

I know you were serious.
- I'm very serious.

- I was gonna walk off here
with no shoes on.

But I'll make it easy for you.

I put four more cards,
these queens,

in between this deck.

I'm not gonna touch the deck,
shuffle the deck.

You just tell me
where the card is at.

And I'm gonna do it like this.

You can stop me at any card.
- Okay.

- Between that... obviously...
It can be at ten.

Just say stop. Nine.

Eight. Seven. Six.

Five. Four.
- Stop.

- Four. You think the queen
is at four.

One, two, three, four.

Now, you can't get
fairer than that.

You see any funny moves?

No. You did not.

We'll do it again.
- Okay.

- Ten. Nine.
- Stop.

- See, he sneaky, right?

He forget
I'm a Master of the Mind.

So, what number was that?
- Nine.

- One, two, three, four,
five six, seven, eight, nine.

- Okay.
- You can't get

cleaner than that.

- No.
- Hell yeah.

- Cannot. Okay.
- The brother's good.

Here's where it get's crazy...

You're making noises.

You're not supposed
to make any noises.

He made a noise.
- He did make a noise.

- Okay. Ten... This for you.

You can just hold up
your fingers.

Nine.

Stop here?

One, two, three, four, five,
six, seven, eight, nine.

Let's get crazy.

One more time.

Ten. Nine. Eight. Seven.

Six. Five. Four. Three. Two.

I thought he was gonna
be the difficult one.

Okay. One, two. Wow.

You ain't left me
but four cards.

But I'm gonna tell you a secret.

I have no idea
what those cards are

because you stopped me,

that was too clean.
- Sure.

- But how do you explain
this ace?

How do you explain this ace?

How do you explain this ace?

And how do you explain this ace?

Well, hold on, hold on, hold on.

Well, wait.

Master. Of. The. Mind.

Wait, hold, hold, hold on.

Before you guys
go back to your seats...

Before you go back
to your seats,

I wanted to let you know.

You're probably gonna think

I have more than one queen.

No.

You can go now.

My goodness.

Chris Capehart everyone.

- Thank you.
- Wow, amazing.

- How is everybody?

- Since you're a master
of the mind...

- Yes, I am.
- Tell me what the audience

is thinking right now.

- They're thinking
he's not Chinese.

Seriously. Did I...

- That's probably true.

How long have you been
a magician?

- I've been a magician
for 48 years.

- Tell... Wow!

I want to know
about the very beginning.

What was
the younger magician like?

- My first magic show I...
I spent $500.

And I bought everything
in the magic shop I could.

All these tricks.
None of the tricks worked.

No.

You're such
a great performer, though,

I'm guessing you pulled it off.

- I pulled it off,
but it taught me a lesson.

If you buy a trick on Tuesday,

you shouldn't be doing it
on Wednesday.

- Got that, everyone?
- Right.

I first started off
because some guy

put a ball in my hand
and made two ba*ls appear.

So, it freaked me out,

and I said, "Well, I gotta
figure that out."

So, once he showed me
how he did it,

I couldn't wait to go scam...
I mean...

I meant, "Do that trick."
- Yeah.

All right, Chris, let's check in
with your street magic buddies

and see if you fooled them.
- You got it.

- Let's do it.
Boys, are you ready?

- Chris.
- All right...

Let me see the shoes, man.

- I don't think...
Well, Teller is happy.

He got his shoes. He's done.

He's got some boss kicks,
he's happy.

But I gotta tell you,

of all the magicians
I've seen in my life

I've probably seen you the most.

- Yeah, yeah.
- Yeah, because we

were on the streets
of Philadelphia,

as I said last time.

I'd do a juggling show,
you'd do a magic show,

Teller would do a magic show,
we'd rotate around again.

So I've seen you so many times,

and I said this last time
you were on,

and I'll say it
when you're on again,

my favorite street magician,

the best street magician
I ever saw.

- Thank you. Appreciate it.
- Right there.

And... but...

Man, you know,
when you were on the street

you didn't do many card things.

You did coin stuff.
- Not any cards. No cards.

- Seeing you do card...
- I never do cards.

- Yeah, and you didn't.
You didn't even handle them.

- No.
- You weren't lying.

It's all in your head.

And I gotta say, Chris, I...
I just have such love for you.

You're such a friend.

But I cannot give you a trophy

because we love you
and you're a friend,

and we go back longer
than anybody else

that's on this show.

We cannot give you
a trophy for that.

We have to give you a trophy
for fooling us.

- Yeah. Woo. Yeah.
- Chris Capehart. Aw.

- Where the little one?

- Congratulations Chris.
- That was so much fun.

Thank you so much!

Boy, I bet you boys
had a great time together.

Yeah. Yeah.

Another magician
makes "Fool Us" history

and there's still more history
to be written,

right after this break.
Stay close.

- Welcome back to "Fool Us."

It's time for another
fabulous finale,

so give it up
for Penn and Teller.

- Brooke, we're gonna
teach you a magic trick

that you'll be able to perform.

Actually... not just here,
but anywhere you want.

We're also gonna build

the magic prop
right in front of you.

- Okay.
- And we're gonna start

with this piece of wood.

What kind of wood
is that, Brooke?

- Just looks like
regular old wood.

- Magic wood!
- Magic wood.

- It's magic wood.
- Of course, it's magic wood.

- And since you are dressed
so appropriately for a tool shop

we are going to...
- Always.

- We are going to use
that power tool.

What kind of power tool
is that, Brooke?

- I don't know.
Should I know, Penn?

That is a magic power tool,
I'm guessing.

- Yes, it's a magic drill press.
- Okay.

- And there he goes,
he's making your prop right now.

This is the prop you will use,
we hope,

the rest of your life
doing magic.

- So I can take
this magic trick home

and perform this
on friends and family?

- Yes, yes.
That's the whole idea.

See, he's created
the first part of this.

And he's made something
in that piece of wood.

And what has he made
in that piece of wood?

- Um, it looks like a hole.

- No!
- A magic hole.

- A magic hole, yes.
- Magic hole, right.

- That's too big for you
to carry around, Brooke.

So he's gonna slice it down
to a nice cube

using... what tool
is that, Brooke?

- That is a magic tool.
Magic slicer.

- A magic saw. Magic saw.
- Magic saw.

- Slicer would also be right,
but... there you go.

He's making that into a...

- Gee.
- Penn!

That's not funny.
- That's a magic joke.

- That's not funny, you guys.
- That's a magic joke.

- That is not funny.

- And now you have
your magic block.

This is your tube... tool.

And this is the other prop
which... what's this?

- A magic rope.
- A magic rope.

Now, Brooke, you're gonna learn
to perform this,

but first we'll show you
what the trick is gonna be.

It's a penetration trick.

Which means the rope
is going to go through the block

in an impossible way, okay?
- Okay.

- So you're gonna watch it once,

and then we'll show you
a few little wrinkles on it,

and then you'll be able
to perform it.

So, we take
a little bit of this.

And what is this, Brooke?
- Magic sawdust.

- Magic sawdust.
You hold it like this.

And watch this, Brooke,

watch as I just dribble it here.
- Okay.

- What?
- Right off there,

just like that.

- Teller.
- Now... Now, Brooke.

Are you gonna be performing
this for your family, probably?

- Friends, family, probably
huge crowds, I'm guessing.

- Huge crowds.
I like to think that.

Now, what they might say to you

because they know
you're a little sneaky

is they might say, "Brooke,
we don't really trust that rope.

"We think that rope has
a little magnetic connection,

"or something, that allows you
to take it off there."

So, you're gonna give them
a choice

of being able to pull it off
the rope anywhere they want.

So, put your hand
underneath that, Brooke.

And tell me, where do you
want it to come off?

Over toward you?
Or over toward me?

- How about
right in the middle, by Teller?

- Right here? Right there?
- Yeah, is that okay?

- Now, watch this.
And you just drop it.

Boom. Just like...

I forgot the...

You forgot
the magic sawdust!

- Yeah, but it works
retroactively. It's fine.

Okay, I'll take this.

Now, it's your turn
to perform it.

Stand there center stage.

Look straight out.

Introduce yourself and say
that you're gonna do magic.

Hi everyone, I'm Brooke Burke

and I would like to attempt
a little piece of magic.

- Now, we're gonna hold it
like this.

Now, put your hand
over the top and hold it.

- Okay.
- Hold the top.

And then think of a magic word.

Don't say it yet.
- Okay.

- And then say the magic word

and then pull that straight up.

Do you know what word
I was thinking of?

- What?
- Prestidigitation.

- There you go.
That's the word.

That's the word.
Now, Brooke, you may think

that we're just gonna pretend
to teach you how to do this.

We know that
your daughter, Rain,

is always asking
how stuff is done,

so we're gonna give you
this to keep,

but first we're gonna sign it

- My God.
- So that it's useless on eBay.

- I am getting the coolest
souvenirs on this show.

- And then, watch this,
this is really cool, Brooke.

These are the actual directions

to how to do that.
- You're too swell, you guys.

- You can learn the trick.
- Really?

And you can also do it for Rain,

and let Rain read those.

- This is gonna give me
big bragging cred,

you know that, right?

- But don't open that
until the show is over.

- I won't.
- Which is, kind of,

right about now.
- It's right now?

Okay, well,
you're not wrong, Penn,

'cause you know
I'm gonna take this home

and I'm gonna perform this.

That was so cool, you guys.

Thanks to all of tonight's
great magicians,

including these two guys.

Until next time,
good night everyone.

- Those are the real directions.
- So cool.
