The man behind their vanishing act is none other than Walter Mabry, a tech prodigy who threatens the Horsemen into pulling off their most impossible heist yet.

That's it?

- Hey, ready?

- Yeah!

Get on.

- Yeah!

- Okay, guys, I'm coming!

Whoa! Jesus!

I'm coming!

- Get up! Come on!

- Okay.

You got me.

Those things are really dangerous!

- Come on!

- Go!

Get him in! Move it!

What is happening?

Where are they?

They should be

arriving any second.

That is, if they're gonna

get here by midnight.

Ah!

Okay, feeling fear.

Fear. Anger, anger.

- Oh, full house!

- That's enough.

I was done.

So nice to see you all again.

But since we're such old friends,

let's skip the formalities.

One of you

has something we require.

So give it over.

Nothing at all?

Really?

Sit down!

Let's go, let's go!

Let's go, let's go!

Hurry up and move them quickly

before they can do anything.

Get those lights off me!

Get on the plane!

Ow! Hey!

Get on the plane!

- Hey!

- Whoa, whoa, hey!

Yeah, uh, take off immediately.

You know, you make it almost too easy?

I mean, even your hilarious attempts

to make yourselves unpredictable,

just follow the same pattern each time.

Set up, set up, set up.

Big reveal.

Which tonight was going

to be stroke of midnight,

middle of the Thames?

Tell me if I'm warm.

Well, there will be a big reveal,

and it will come now.

The stick, dear boy.

- No.

- Fine.

Start with her.

Whoa, whoa, hey, hey, hey!

- Give it to him.

- Danny, give him the card.

- Just give it to him.

- Danny, come on.

We'll have a closer look.

Okay, I owe you an apology.

Leader, you should have

planned an escape, okay?

- This is the both of us.

- Okay, it's the both of us.

- Guys, come on!

- Come on, stop!

- You, to save your little girlfriend!

- To save my...

- He had a knife to her head!

- I'm a Horseman, you dick!

All right, you know what?

This is not the time!

And you, what's your deal, man?

Look, they're not gonna get blood

all over the seats.

They're probably gonna

throw us out of the plane.

- Really?

- I'm sorry to interrupt,

but I just have to

say congratulations.

And thank you!

It's real.

What?

It's real?

Bring them through.

Did you say it's real?

What is he talking about?

Move!

Well done, my boy.

Cote Du Marisule champagne.

It's the most expensive bottle on Earth.

$1.2 million.

And I saved it just for this occasion.

Honestly, same bottle,

Liquor Shack, 700K.

Hey. You got what you wanted.

So, does this mean

you're letting us go?

Knowing what you

know about us? No.

- You sure?

- Chase, what shall we do?

Toss them out.

Get your last words

in quickly, everybody!

- No! Come on! No!

- Farewell.

Oh, God! No!

Wait! I just wanna say...

I came into the world

with the wrong family,

but I'm leaving with the right one.

I love you guys!

- No!

- No, no, no!

This is how I kicked

you out of the womb.

No!

Who's next?

No, wait! Let me go!

Let go of me!

No, no, no!

- Let me go!

- Toss her!

Oh, God!

Hurry up and shut that door!

It's getting cold in here.

Okay, hit the road, Jack!

No, no, no!

A lot of brain,

but not enough brawn.

Oh, that was fun!

Cheers! Well done, my boy.

Um...

No, is it supposed to taste like that?

No, it is not.

What the hell is going on?

Okay, come pick them up!

- Come on.

- Come on out.

Ladies and gentlemen... The Horsemen!

No, you should feel pretty

good about yourself, man.

You predicted it correctly.

The Thames, stroke of midnight.

New Year's Eve. Happy New Year!

Unbelievable!

- We are moving now.

- The whole thing just changed.

- All backup into position stat!

- We're on the move.

- You're staying here!

- Of course.

Move! Move! Out of the way!

Wow! Thank you very much, London!

We would like to acknowledge not just

our old friend, Arthur Tressler.

But his young and very

brilliant son, Walter Mabry.

Who has performed one of the

greatest feats of illusion

even we have ever seen.

He has, amazingly, brought

himself back from the dead!

But before he did that,

he revealed someone.

And we think it only right

to give him a proper introduction.

He is our friend and he is our leader.

Dylan Shrike!

- Get over here!

- Yeah!

So, normally

only the magician, his assistant,

and a few trusted stage hands

know the secret of a trick.

But tonight, however, in this effect,

all of you people

around the Thames here.

And since we're streaming live,

everyone around the world

already knows everything.

And only these fellows

here are the ones left in the dark.

So let's see how closely

you were watching our shows.

Remember when we were playing

"Find the Lady," and I said

that we used a Barry Trap.

Some classic switches

and a few duplicates?

Well, that's how we switched

the driver of the truck.

Which took us to a duplicate hangar

where we used your need to rush,

and your fear of being seen

let you do the work for us.

Get those lights off me!

So, the airplane.

How did we get it to fly?

Well, we used fans,

and lights and rain machines.

Obviously, all of this was

reliant on us getting caught.

But we needed to make sure

that you would do exactly

what we needed you to do

once you did catch us.

My brother Chase, who was

technical adviser to the losing team.

He taught us that it's

all about blind spots.

I know where you're going!

And, uh, surprises.

Watch it, hobo.

Why don't you watch

the watch I'm wearing,

the where of where

you're watching, and sleep!

It's going to be your idea to throw

the Horsemen out of the plane.

If all of this is

kind of confusing to you,

I can maybe catch you up on it later.

Probably see you what, three to five?

Come on, put it there.

Hey! Tit for tat, bro!

Basically, we showed them everything.

How you kidnapped us to steal the very

thing that is in your pocket right now.

Whoops!

You know, this thing here,

which you said you could

use to adjust markets,

manipulate governments,

and spy on whomever you choose.

Also, you could, as you said,

control the public

from outside the grid.

These men destroy people's lives.

Spying on the world, robbing you

of your right to privacy.

And they do that

by hiding in the dark.

So, in the Horsemen tradition,

we're here to expose them.

Tonight, they, like all of us,

are finally stepping into the light.

Thank you, everybody!

We are the Horsemen

and we will be back very soon!

Five, four, three, two, one!

- Hey, we're on the clock.

- Get a move on.

There they are!

- There's more inside.

- Don't you bloody touch me!

The Horsemen are over on the...

Oh, sh*t!

Stay with them!

Everybody spread out!

Nobody leaves this barge!

Rhodes, hold it right there!

Do not move!

This contains everything.

Not just Walter and Tressler,

but all their dealings.

All their contacts,

the entire network.

And why on Earth

would I believe you?

I told you.

I'm the same man I've always been.

Move it! Come on!

Let's go, go, go!

I'm not part of this

organization! I'm Merritt.

I'm a patsy!

I'm a patsy!

Ten minutes.

Now you're playing

the long game.

Dad, I promise you I will fix this.

You can't. Stop calling me dad.
