It taps into our sense of wonder.

So let's see-

Let's see Adam Wiley here. Yes.

(audience applauding)

Yes. Hey, opening the show.

Here we go.

We'll start it off.

Here's the audience. - Oh.

We're supposed to be doing a show?

- A magic show, my friend.

"Masters of Illusion," what we...

- Okay, hold on one second. Uh.

Um-

- Adam's very professional, usually.

It's not- - Dean Cain,

Um, hold out your hands.

Awesome. Don't drop that.

(objects rattling)

(audience applauds)

Did I just do magic?

- Yeah, you sure did. - I just did magic.

All right. Adam Wiley.

And let's see what our other

incredible magicians have in store.

Get outta here. Go out here.

- You're gonna need to tell me how you do that though,

'cause I really don't understand.

(audience applauds)

- This performer is here to dazzle you

with her signature blend of humor and magic.

But don't let her charm fool you.

She's about to take you on a wild ride

where the odds are always in her favor.

Let's welcome the incredible Lucy Darling.

(audience cheers and applauds)

(upbeat music)

- Look at all of you.

You know, magicians are often compared

to grifters, card cheats, and even the French.

(audience laughs)

Darling, what's your little name?

- Jim. - Jim.

I'm sure it is. Look at you.

I bet you go all the time.

Jim, darling, since you are helping out a magician

with a gambling game, you might need your wallet.

So give it to me.

(audience laughs)

Very nice. Yes.

Look at this, what we got in here?

Oh, look at all this money, that's yours.

(audience laughs)

You know, it's very strange being a magician.

No matter where you go, the country

or the currency, as soon

as you tell people you're a magician, when you ask

for money, they just give it to you.

(audience laughs)

(audience cheers and applauds)

Thank you, Jim.

Now allow me to indulge you in a bit of a story.

1852, the height of the California gold rush,

where only two places to go for entertainment,

the casino and the brothel.

Jim, you would've loved it.

(audience laughs)

On an otherwise unremarkable day,

There appeared a woman with dark hair

and dark eyes who walked unaccompanied down the center

of downtown into the largest casino

and began dealing a game of blackjack.

Now, this was remarkable for two reasons.

One, at the time, women were not allowed in casinos.

And two, this woman only spoke French.

This is the true story of a woman named Eleanor Dumont,

a card cheat, a gambler and some suspect, a magician.

That night she won herself a small fortune,

and she did that night after night

until she earned enough money to open her own casino,

The 21 (speaking in foreign language) in French.

It was an establishment, upscale, gorgeous,

that specialized in poker, blackjack, and roulette.

The best account we have of her is from a young man,

a reporter, who came to her table to try

to turn his modest fortune into a respectable one.

After three rounds, she had cleared him completely out.

But Eleanor had this magical way of convincing you

that you'd won even when you'd lost.

So, he joined her after the show,

and he was granted a glass of French champagne

and enough money to get home.

Jim, you look like a gambling man.

All too happy to be separated from your money. Am I right?

- Yes.

(audience laughs)

- Clearly.

Then why do you say you and I play a sexy little game? Yes?

- Okay. - It's a very easy game.

All you have to do is guess which bag

contains the bottle.

Do you think you can do that?

- Yes.

- I know it seems deceptively easy,

probably easier than you thought,

except for it shall not be,

'cause I'll be employing the exact same techniques,

confusion and misdirection

that were used those many years ago

by the great Eleanor Dumont.

So my friend, are you ready to be misdirected?

Mmm.

You seem a little too happy about that.

(audience laughs)

Jim, prepare yourself.

(lively music)

(audience laughs)

(Lucy making beeping noises)

(audience laughs)

Jim, where is the bottle?

Number one, number two, or number three?

- Number two.

- Number two. This one? - [Jim] Yeah.

How confident are you at that, Jim?

- Less confident than I was.

- Less confident you were? Yeah.

You weren't confident to start out with.

You just gave a strange woman all your money.

(audience laughs)

You think it's in here? Do you wanna change your mind?

- Yeah.

- You wanna go this way? - Yep.

- 100%? - Yep.

(paper crumples)

(audience groans)

- Oh no, poor Jim. Oh no.

Oh no.

Good. You know what?

But it's probably my fault.

You didn't have anything to work for. Nothing at risk.

So how about we play again? Yes?

Okay. And this time we're gonna play for my $97.

(audience laughs)

Okay, great. Little bit more at stake.

Jim, are you ready?

Yeah. - Yeah.

- Pay attention this time.

(lively music)

(audience laughs)

(Lucy making beeping noises)

(audience laughs)

Jim.

One or two?

- Two.

- Are you sure?

- Yes. - This number two?

- That number two. - Yeah?

You don't wanna change your mind?

This is the one?

For your $97? - Yeah.

(audience laughs)

(paper crumples)

(audience groans)

- Poor Jim. Oh no.

First he lost his hair and now this.

Oh, no.

It's so sad for Jim.

Jim, I'm nothing if not a generous spirit.

Do you wanna play one final time?

- Sure. - Okay, great.

I'll need another $97.

(audience laughs)

This one's on me. Okay.

I think you got this one, Jim.

(Lucy making beeping noises)

(audience laughs)

Oh.

Jim.

One or one?

(audience laughs)

- One. - You're kidding me.

This one? You're pretty confident at this

point, aren't you?

100%. Yeah.

(paper crumples)

(audience cheers and applauds)

Oh, Jim, don't you worry.

You have not gone home with nothing.

You have earned yourself a very valuable lesson, known by me

and all the other magicians at this place.

You see, it is important to never gamble

with anything you're not actually willing to lose.

(audience laughs)

(audience cheers and applauds)

So Jim, my new friend, in the spirit

of the great Eleanor Dumont,

I would like to grant you a gift

of French champagne and enough money to get home.

(audience laughs)

(audience cheers and applauds)

(lively music continues)

(fire blasts)

- [Dean] Coming up, Ivan Amodei's modern take

on Harry Houdini.

- You know, I don't know what's gonna happen.

'cause when I do this, sometimes it goes wrong and I'm dead.

(audience laughs)

- [Dean] And later, Maxence Vire

shows off his invisible cape.

- And now I completely invisible. Yes, you see?

- [Dean] Will it work?

Plus Anna Deguzman has a career first.

- No, this actually has never happened.

Can we? Can we start over?

- "Masters of Illusion" has so much left

up our sleeves.

Stick around.

(fire blasts)

(audience cheers and applauds)

(upbeat music)

(audience cheers and applauds)

(fire blasts)

Get ready for a performance that combines the spirit

of Houdini with a fresh and thrilling new approach.

Our next magician takes inspiration from the classics,

but always adds an innovative twist.

Please give it up for the phenomenal Ivan Amodei.

(audience cheers and applauds)

(upbeat music)

- Hey.

Hey.

Thank you.

Dean gave it away a little bit,

but who's the most famous magician in the world?

Dammit.

(audience laughs)

Why was Houdini famous?

Not for magic, for escape.

He could escape from any jail cell you locked him in.

That's what he really became known for.

How did Houdini do it? Yeah, I'll tell you one thing.

When they locked him in a jail cell, they told him

to take all his clothes off,

wrap him in a little ball and put him in a box.

They put him in a jail cell naked. And guess what?

Every time, he still escaped

and made it to his theater for his show.

Why did they make him take his clothes off?

Because they thought he was gonna smuggle in tools.

How did he escape from jail? He smuggled in tools.

(audience laughs)

He smuggled in one tool.

He smuggled in a piece of steel this big,

and instead of putting this piece of steel on him,

(dramatic music)

he put it in him.

Not what you think.

(audience laughs)

He'd swallow it.

And when the time came

and they threw him in the jail cell, they searched him.

Obviously he was clean.

And all you would have to do is just get it to come out

just the way it went down.

Amazing, isn't it? Yeah.

So tonight I'm gonna demonstrate

a technique that you've never seen before,

the technique of swallowing a piece

of steel like Houdini did it 100 years ago.

You guys wanna see that?

(audience cheers and applauds)

Perfect.

I'm gonna do it exactly how he did it, naked.

Let's do it. No, no.

(audience laughs)

I'm scared.

I'm gonna do it more hip today,

instead of one piece of steel,

we're gonna do it with a couple of dozen pieces of steel.

There's a yellow, a green and a red. These are sewing pins.

These are very sharp.

And tailors use them to basically just mark

your clothing when they want to sew 'em up.

It's very, very real.

I'm just gonna quickly just have you just take one out

and verify, any one.

Okay, take the red needle

and how you're gonna verify for everybody

that's real is jam her in the leg with it.

(audience laughs)

They're real. They're absolutely real.

Okay? Is that a deal?

Alright, this lady right here. Come on. Give her a big hand.

Here she comes.

(audience applauds)

How are you?

- I'm good. - Good. Nice to meet you.

What's your name? - Diana.

- Diana. You're gonna hold this in your one hand.

Show everybody.

And if you wanna take one out, take one out.

Feel it. It's sharp?

- Oh yeah. - Oh yeah.

Let's start throwing 'em in there together.

Come on. And I'm gonna put some in.

I'll put the red one in.

You put the whole bunch of white ones. We're good.

And we'll fill this up. And you got one more.

Very nice. We're good with this.

(dramatic music)

(audience laughs)

All right, Diana, shoot those down. Let's make it happen.

(audience laughs)

No, that's not, no, no, no. This is for real.

Come on. Give Diana a big hand for helping me out.

Thank you. Please go back to your seat.

(audience applauds)

You know, I don't know what's gonna happen.

'cause when I do this, sometimes it goes wrong and I'm dead.

(audience laughs)

So if you guys don't mind, if you don't mind,

just this one time, I'd like to take my applause

before I do this.

(audience laughs)

Thank you.

(audience applauds)

(dramatic music)

(Ivan grunts)

Yummy.

(audience laughs)

(audience applauds)

Yummy.

You're not buying that story, are you? Look at my mouth.

See if you see a whole bunch of white.

- I see a bunch of something.

- A bunch of teeth. Yeah.

Very cool.

Houdini was able to get one out,

but we have about 25 or so in there.

But let's not just take any out.

Let's take 'em out in the color order that you would like.

So since you're staring at me like you're a nut job, dude,

(audience laughs)

which color do you like?

There's a red, a green and a yellow.

And then there's a whole bunch of white ones.

But let's start off with the red, the green, or the yellow.

Which one do you like the most?

- Red. - Red.

(dramatic music)

(audience groans)

(audience applauds)

Lady in the very back,

I think you have a beautiful greenish jacket on.

What's your next favorite color?

There's yellow and green still in there.

- Green. - Green.

(dramatic music)

(audience exclaims)

(audience applauds)

What do you wanna go with last?

Which one do you wanna go with?

Yellow.

(audience laughs)

(Ivan laughing)

(audience applauds)

Yellow.

- Cool. Three needles.

Let me show you something that I brought with me.

This is a little blow dart. You know what this is used for?

It's very handy for me.

What I do is I load the needles in the blow dart,

then I shoot 'em at people that don't want to applaud.

(audience laughs)

So let's make sure everybody gets to applaud.

(audience applauds)

Alright, cool.

So let's pick a couple of random people.

This gentleman right there,

that you sound like a good person.

I haven't picked you. You're good here yet.

How about you?

You raise your hand. You're good?

I want you three people, if you don't mind,

just think of a location somewhere in the world, city,

state, country.

You got one? You got one?

and then, you got one.

Okay, what is your location?

- Tanzania. - Tanzania.

- No idea where that is.

(audience laughs)

- Yours? - Hawaii.

- Hawaii. Nice.

I know where that is and?

- Salt Lake City. - Salt Lake City.

So they send these three locations maybe

because it means something to them.

So typically if you go back

to that spot, it brings back memories.

So we're gonna load the needles into the blow dart

and take you back to this spot right now.

Hawaii, Tanzania, Salt Lake City. Here we go.

(dramatic music)

(Ivan blowing)

Wait a minute. What if they're just in random spots?

Big deal.

They need to be in the exact spots

of those three people because then then it

wouldn't be that impressive.

So let's go check it out. What did you say?

- Tanzania. - Tanzania.

Now, I failed sociology,

so I have no idea where Tanzania is.

Look at the green needle and tell everybody nice and loud.

Exactly. Where is that green needle stuck?

- Tanzania. - Tanzania!

(audience cheers and applauds)

That's one.

What'd you say?

Hawaii.

Let's skip that dude.

(audience laughs)

What'd you say? Salt Lake City.

Let's come over here. Green is taken.

That means red is probably the next one.

Take a real close look and it can't be almost.

It has to be exact. Where is that red needle?

- Exactly on- - Come on!

That's two!

That's two.

(audience cheers and applauds)

That's good.

Hawaii for the man.

You are yellow. You are the last needle.

Red's been taken by Hawaii

and green has been taken by Tanzania.

Nice and loud, tell 'em where that yellow needle is. Go.

- The middle of the Indian Ocean.

(audience laughs)

- Two outta three. Come on, gimme some credit.

Two outta three.

(audience applauds)

Two outta three.

I know where Hawaii is. I can't even believe I missed that.

I got Tanzania, but I missed Hawaii. That's not right.

(audience laughs)

Wow. That's just unbelievable.

So if you guys don't mind, I'd like

to get myself out of this.

Do you guys remember all the little white ones I still had?

Yeah, let's get those out.

(dramatic music)

(Ivan gagging and spitting)

What'd you say? - Hawaii.

- Okay. That's what I spelled on the apple, Hawaii.

I don't know if that worked out. It says Hawaii.

(upbeat music)

Let's hear it.

(fire blasts)

[Dean] Coming up,

Maxence Vire shows off his invisible cape.

- And now I completely invisible. Yes, you see?

- [Dean] Will it work?

Alright, Angeline, this is MJ

Has a tag and also has a little bag on it.

I want you to look inside that bag.

Is there anything inside the bag? Just the chain?

- Yeah, just the chain. - Just the chain.

Put that chain back inside the bag. Go ahead.

All the way in. Great.

I'm gonna place this collar

You're gonna grab onto my wrist. Go ahead, Angeline.

Grab onto my wrist. My wrist.

Both hands. Both hands.

In a nice loud voice, Angeline say, "Go."

- Go.

(energetic music)

- [Audience] Whoa.

- Wasn't that amazing magic? - Uh huh.

- Alright, I need another diamond. That's what I need.

I need another. Who has?

Okay, Angeline, your ring disappeared.

Wasn't that amazing? So good, right?

- Great. - You're done.

Go have a seat.

No, I'm just kidding. I'm just kidding, Angelina.

I wouldn't do that. Here's the reality.

Reality is I'm not doing this magic trick.

You know who's doing the magic trick? MJ.

MJ is doing the magic trick. That's right.

Stand right over here. I want you to remember that bag.

I want you to grab onto the bag. Hold onto it.

Do not let go.

Now, MJ has been wearing that collar

around his neck since before Angeline gave me her ring.

And follow me this way, Angeline, follow me this way.

- [Audience] No way. - Yes way.

You can let go now.

(audience laughs)

I know you're really anxious to see what's in there.

I want you to feel inside that bag. Do you feel something?

- Just the chain. - Just the chain.

Well, I hope it's not just the chain.

Lemme tell you that, because

the chain's still in there.

But also Angeline, there's a diamond ring attached to it.

(audience applauds)

Hold your hand out. Hold your hand out.

I'm gonna give you that diamond ring right there.

Hold onto it. Put that back on your finger.

And everybody give it up for MJ.

(audience cheers and applauds)

Is that your ring? - Yes.

- That is your band, but I took the diamond.

Okay, you go have a seat.

You're doing a great job. Give it up for Angeline and MJ.

(audience cheers and applauds)

- What's up?

How you guys doing?

So as a magician, I get so tired of doing card tricks.

That's what we're known for.

So I thought I'd do a different trick with cards,

but a little bit different.

All right?

The cards I happen to have right here,

Danny has, are fruits and vegetable cards.

Why not? I think it's more exciting.

It's like 52 different cards. Thank you, thank you.

And you can see they're all different kinds

of cards here as you guys can see.

All right? All different fruits and vegetables.

So here's what we're going to do. All right?

I'm gonna need somebody to help me. You'd be great.

Love the glasses. Nice, and the tie.

What's your name?

- I'm Brett. - Brett.

How you doing, Brett? - I'm so good.

Good, good.

So I'm gonna have you help me.

I'm gonna go through these fruits and vegetables.

I want you say stop whenever you want.

You're gonna pick a fruit or vegetable.

You're call, whatever you wish, Brett. Say stop anytime.

- Stop. - Right there?

Great. All right, lock that in.

Can you it? Yes?

You guys got that all in? Yes?

You guys can see that well?

Brett, you can see that? Yes?

Very important, you got that? All right.

Keep it to yourself. Make sure I don't know what that is.

Okay, got that? Put these in here.

I'm gonna shuffle these up just like so.

Mix them up just for you, Brett.

I'm gonna try to take a guess

what fruit or vegetable you chose.

Okay? Take a wild guess. You chose a vegetable.

- Yeah. - Yes.

So it's not a fruit, it's not a peach. All right.

You chose if I get this right guy,

I mean, this is ridiculous.

You chose a cucumber. Am I right?

Come on now. How does he do it?

I mean seriously, how does he do?

I mean, honest to God, they're kids flash charts, people.

Come on. You're smarter than that.

Actually, I have something right here,

which is the newspaper,

'cause I think the, I'm the only person

that ever reads a newspaper.

I love a real paper for some reason.

You don't get interrupted by popup ads or anything.

I actually have your prediction in this newspaper.

Yeah, I want to see if you can actually find it. All right?

I want you to see if you can catch me, so watch carefully.

Here we go.

(upbeat music)

(paper rustling)

Nothing yet, Brett?

- No.

- No.

Nothing.

(upbeat music continues)

(audience exclaims)

What do you think?

(audience cheers and applauds)

Pretty cool, right?

Now Brett, quick question.

What was the fruit or vegetable that you chose?

It was a turnip, right?

- Cucumber. - Cucumber. I knew that.

Is that yours right there?

(audience cheers and applauds)

And that's for you. Salad on you.

And that's for you guys right there.

(audience cheers and applauds)

(fire booms)

- [Dean] Coming up, Anna DeGuzman has a career first.

- No, this actually has never happened.

Can we start over?

- Plus, Joseph Reohm will defy reality.

"Masters of Illusion" has saved the best for last.

(fire booms)

(audience cheers and applauds)

(energetic music)

(audience cheers and applauds)

(fire booms)

(laughs) What you're about to witness

isn't your typical card trick.

It's an extraordinary display of skill from one

of the most celebrated magicians in the world.

Known for her incredible talent and global fame,

please welcome the amazing Anna DeGuzman.

(audience cheers and applauds)

- Hello, everyone.

So lovely to be back here at "Masters of Illusion".

I would love the help of one lucky person here today.

- Right here. - Okay. Really?

You ready?

Why is everyone pointing at you? Is it your birthday?

- No.

- I usually go for the person pointing,

not the person being pointed at.

- Oh. - Okay. Hi, what's your name?

- Bianca. - Bianca, nice to meet you.

I'm Anna. - Nice to meet you, too.

- Cool. You can see all the cards are different, right?

(upbeat music)

(audience applauds)

Okay.

Now, of course you've seen me handle a deck of cards,

but this time I want the magic

to happen in your hands.

Okay, Bianca, go ahead and take any one of the cards.

That one? Go ahead and show everybody what it is.

Hold it up high to everyone behind you.

And put it back, face down. Remember the card.

Do not forget it. We're gonna mix this up.

Classic pick a card and I find it. Okay?

The five clubs, right?

Here. Take the card, your card.

Why'd you shake your head? - Oh, that's not my card.

- Is she messing with me?

(audience laughs)

Are you actually serious?

But it was a five, right?

- No. - It was a club?

(audience laughs)

It wasn't, really?

No, this actually has never happened.

Can we start over?

We'll start over. Okay?

Can you hold out your hand, flat? Hold onto that.

We don't need it. What was your actual card?

- A king.

- King of what?

(audience laughs)

You had one job. Just remember the card.

What was it?

- [Audience] A diamond. - King of diamonds?

Okay. King of diamonds.

Okay, I did find it. Okay?

But the truth is this is all an illusion

because you've been holding onto the king of diamonds

the whole time.

(audience exclaims)

Because I have the five, so what do you have?

(audience gasps)

(audience exclaims)

Show everybody. Hold it up.

(audience cheers and applauds)

Come on.

You thought...

But a torn cart is no use.

Can you squeeze onto the pieces for me?

Squeeze, squeeze, squeeze, squeeze.

Put the other hand on top. Now.

Ready? Squeeze tight.

Do you feel it melting in your hand?

- No.

- Just like that?

Open up and show everybody what you have now.

(intense music)

(audience exclaims)

(audience cheers and applauds)

Thank you, Bianca. Thank you all for having me.

You can keep that.

You can keep that.

I want you to remember this moment

for the rest of your life.

Thank you all so much.

(audience cheers and applauds)

- Please join me in welcoming

the extraordinary Joseph Reohm.

(audience cheers and applauds)

(energetic music)

(audience cheers and applauds)

(audience cheers and applauds)

(fire booms)

It's been a night full of surprises

and unforgettable moments.

We hope you've enjoyed the show as much

as we've enjoyed bringing it to you.

I'm Dean Cain and we'll catch you next time

on "Masters of Illusion".
