Now You See It Page #4

Synopsis: Professional magician Mystic Max hosts a reality TV show. It allows the winning three teams of minors, would be-TV directors and cameramen and the best young magicians some of them present, to go on to a final competition at Hollywood's Magic Mansion. Pushy nerd Allyson Miller was lucky enough to 'discover' Danny Sinclair, who performs unseen tricks with stunning surprise, yet often lacks any confidence. In between the competition tests, Danny goes searching for the mansion's secrets, hidden by founding magician Antonio De Milo. Finding those is only part of a confusing confrontation in which Max's part is unclear.

Select And Perform

His Most Renowned Trick.

Buona Fortuna.

No Way!

This Is So Cool.

That's Awesome.

[Coos]

Ohh. Anybody Seen Danny?

Can't Exactly Say

I've Been Looking.

He's Probably Somewhere

In The Stacks.

You Know What?

Get Some Shots Of This

And I'll Find Danny.

Sounds Good.

Hey, This Is Great.

You're Actually Studying.

What's Up?

I'm, Uh--

I Don't See Any Houdini

Books Here In This Mess.

Don't Worry About It.

I've Got That Wired.

Then What's This

All About?

It's, Um, A Long Story.

I've Got Time. Hmm.

Ok, You're Always

Claiming To Be

The Puzzle Queen.

Maybe You Actually

Can Help.

I'd Love To.

See, Every Book

Or Web Site I've Read

About The Magic Mansion

Talks About

Its Secret Rooms

Or Hidden Chambers.

I Mean

Even Max Mentioned

All The Magical Mystery

That This Place Holds.

Ok, More

Information, Please.

Well, I've Been

Searching Through

These Books That Are

Supposed To

Tell The Mansion

History, But...

I Mean They Were

No More Revealing

Than Anything

I Could've Gotten

Out Of A Public Library.

Where's All

The Secret Stuff?

It's Gotta Be Around

Here Someplace.

Hold On.

W-What Are You Doing?

J-Just Give Me

A Second, Ok?

Could You Please Tell Me

What You're Doing?

Look, See How

Some Of These Books

Have Markings

On Their Bindings

And Others Don't?

We Need To Find

All Those That Have

This Symbol. Come On.

All Right, What Now?

See This On The Binding?

I'm Betting These Are

Your Puzzle Pieces, Pal.

Now It's Up To Us

To Solve It.

Allyson,

You're Brilliant.

Thanks For Noticing.

Don't Mention It.

Let's Get To Work.

Ok, Uh...

Oh, Try This One.

Switch Those Two.

The Head Goes--

Yeah.

Oh, This One.

Yeah, That's The Head,

There's The Tail.

Danny, Look.

Wow!

Serpents.

There's 2 Serpents--

Do You Recognize It?

I've Seen This.

I Can't Believe

You Figured This Out.

Well, Come On,

Anybody Could Have Done It.

Not Me.

I've Seen This

Someplace Before.

There It Is.

What Does It Mean?

It Means If We Want

To Figure Out Where

This Is Leading Us,

We Have To Find

This Symbol.

We Find The Symbol,

We Find The Secret Room.

Follow Me.

Great.

Let's Get Cedric.

This Way.

Come On.

Uh, Guys, I Don't Think

This Is Such A Good Idea.

Would You Rather Stay

Here By Yourself?

No.

[Rattles]

Ok, It's Got To Be

The Other Way.

Come On.

Yes!

Look Out!

Aah!

[Bat Screeches]

What Was That?

Follow Me.

This Place Gives Me

The Creeps.

Great.

A Dead End.

Hey, Guys,

Let's Get Out Of Here.

Wait, Wait, Wait.

This Is It.

This Is The Symbol.

Allyson:
Ok, So We Found It.

Now What Do We Do?

I Don't Know.

I Don't Know.

Just Come On,

Help Me Out.

Ok, That's It.

I'm Getting Out Of Here.

Hold On, Hold On,

Hold On, Hold On.

Maybe This Is A Clue.

"Qui Libri Legat

Aracana Intra

Reperiet."

What Does That Mean?

It Means "Whoever

Reads Books Finds

Secrets Within."

Or Maybe

It's A Misdirection.

That's What

I'm Thinking.

This Book Is

Made Of Stone

And If You Want

To Read A Book,

You Have To--

[Together]

You Have To Turn The Pages!

[Creaking]

Whoa.

We Really Ought To Get

Out Of Here. Something's--

[Creaking]

Cedric:
Let's Get

Out Of Here!

You Guys Ready?

Are You Getting This?

[Scared]

Uh-Huh.

Come On, Cedric.

Have I Mentioned That

I'm A Little Claustrophobic?

Will You Come On?

We Need You.

[Whimpers]

This Is

Pretty Creepy.

I'm Not Sure

I'm Really Claustrophobic--

Shh! We Probably Don't

Need Anybody To Know

That We're Here.

Cedric:
Why Not?

It's Not Like Anything Bad

Is Gonna Happen, Right?

[Clanks]

[Air Hissing]

How Did You

Do That?

With A Lot Of Practice.

Aah!

Now How Are We Gonna

Get Out Of Here?

Danny:
Guys, This Way.

Come On.

Oh, Now What?

Wow, Here It Is.

Wow.

Hey, Guys,

Have I Mentioned

That I'm Really,

Really, Really

Claustrophobic?

Just Get In Here, Cedric.

I Can't Believe It.

We Found De Milo's

Secret Library.

Now That We're Here,

What Are We Looking For?

Hey, Guys,

I Wonder What

This Does?

Cedric, Wait!

No, Don't!

[All Screaming]

Ha Ha Ha!

That Was Awesome!

Can Someone Please

Explain To Me

What Just Happened?

I Don't Know,

But Things Just Keep

Getting Stranger

By The Second.

Allyson:
No Kidding.

Let's Get Out Of Here.

I Hope You're Ready

For Your Next Challenge.

[Dramatic Music Plays]

[Applause]

I Proudly Present To You

A Classic Trick Invented

By Alexander Herrmann,

But Performed By Countless

Renowned Magicians

Over The Years.

Boy:
Aw!

They're So Cute.

Maybe That One's Stuck.

For Generations,

Harry Blackstone Amazed People

With His Levitation

Of A Light Bulb.

[Chuckles]

I Will Now Attempt

The Same Illusion.

Whoa.

[Applause]

He Got An 8.

That's Great.

All Right, You're Up.

Although Houdini

Was World Famous

For His Incredible Escapes,

What You're About To Witness

Was The Most Mystifying

Stage Illusion Ever.

To This Day,

Very Few People People Know

How Houdini Made

A 10,000 Pound Elephant

Vanish In A Flash.

And Now,

Ladies And Gentlemen,

As I Attempt To Recreate

This Stunning Feat,

May I Present To You

My Very Own Highly-Trained,

Yet Deadly, Dangerous,

Wild Elephant.

[All Laughing]

You Know,

I Might Be Dressed

Like An Elephant,

But I Feel Like

A Horse's Behind.

Get Over It.

All Right?

And Now,

Ladies And Gentlemen,

For The First Time

In Over 80 Years,

May I Present To You

Houdini's Original...

Brandon:
Yee-Hah!

Ha Ha Ha!

Vanishing Elephant.

Whoa!

Ha Ha Ha!

Whoa!

Whoa!

Uhh!

Hey, Hey, Brandon?

You Ok?

What?

Ok, People!

Everybody Keep Quiet!

Everybody Calm Down!

One At A Time!

He Has To Be

Kicked Off The Show.

You're Just Jealous.

Your Guy Levitated

A 60-Watt Light Bulb.

I Mean, My Guy Made

A Mechanical Bull Appear.

That's Exactly

My Point.

There's No Way

He Could Do That.

But He Did.

Ok, How?

How Did You Do It?

A Good Magician

Never Reveals

The Secrets Of His Tricks.

Or Maybe It's

Because He Can't.

Because It

Wasn't A Trick.

Then What Was It, Hunter?

I, Uh--

I Think Maybe

It Was Real.

Real?

Like, What If He Actually

Has Magical Powers?

Yeah, Right.

Do You Have Any Idea

How Crazy You Sound?

Look, It's Possible, Ok?

I Mean, There's A Lot

Of Bizarre Things

We Can't Explain

Like E.S.P.,

Mind Readers--

And Donald Trump's Hair.

And People Who Make

Mechanical Bulls Appear

Out Of Thin Air.

Hunter:
Exactly.

And While We're At It,

I Think It Was Danny Here

Who Made Brandon Disappear

During The First Challenge.

[Sighs]

Look, As Much As I Believe

It's A Total Violation

Of The Magician's Code,

Why Don't You Just Tell Them

How You Did Your Trick

So We Can Move On.

You Heard Her, Man.

Give It Up.

Yeah, Come On.

Just Tell Us All

How You Did It, Ok?

We Really Want

To Know.

Ok, Fine!

All Right, Hunter's Right.

Girl:
Huh?

I Don't Know

How I Did It.

I Don't Understand Anything

About Any Of This.

These Things

Just Happen To Me!

Ok, There.

You Happy?

Very Good, Danny.
