The Incredible Burt Wonderstone Page #5

What have we here?

Presto!

That's not all.

Hey, here you go.

How about that?

Hola seorita.

there you are.

Thats for you , and you.

They should have fresh rabbit to practice magic with

don't you agree?

This area of the world is so troubled.

Not only is their life in proverty and no fresh eater.

but the locals are also hooked on a powerful drug called "Kratom leaf"

And that knocks them unconscious for an hour.

I'm trying to get them off of Kratom and hook on magic instead.

Now your here in part because you had falling out with your longtime

magic partner and best friends Burt Wonderstone.

He was my best friend.

He was like a brother to me.

And i'll always be greatful to him for showing me my first trick.

Do you remember what that was?

A disappearing handkerchief.

Its the 1st trick everybody learns, but I tell you what

when Burt did it that day.

It really blew my mind.

Rance, lets do some tricks.

Rance

Ah!

What are you doing here?

I wanna do some tricks.

What are you doing in my room?

Look what I brought, remember that?

I don't care.

I thought that we could do some tricks together.

The whole point of the kit was so you could do

the tricks without me.

Ooh, the dangling knot.

And the rings, remember the rings?

How do these work again?

If I show you how to do the rings will you leave me alone?

We'll see.

Find out how I need to get the fingers, and there.

No good I can see the corner of the card.

Really?

Yeah?

and there?

Yeah, but squeeze your fingers tighter.

Tighter!

How in the hell did you ever perform

in the Las Vegas stage?

I did't really use card tricksI mostly worked with

big giant props.

Big giant props.

Do you mind if I ask you something?

If you feel you should.

What happen? I mean one day you were

headlining at Ballys

the next day you just disappeared.

Pass me the salt.

Do you remember why you became a magician?

Because everybody loves a magician.

right.

How?

How'd?

What your feeling right now.

That sense of awe that sense of wonderment.

that sense that anything in the universe is possible.

Thats why you became a magician.

Thats why I became a magician.

Thats and the women.

Thats and the women.

So why did you just walk away?

I was on the stage one day and all of a sudden

it become roast...

it becomes mechanical

and I didn't like that feeling.

So I walked away and never looked back.

Honestly, how did you do that with the bird?

It's partially deboned.

Hello?

I'll be right there.

Burt, Burt how are you?

Doug.

Come here.

How you holding up?

Very well.

Have a seat.

So, like I said I wanted to talk to you about performing.

Yes, yes so what do you think?

Triumphant return to Ballys?

or perhaps a new show at your new hotel?

actually I had something else in mind.

Alright.

See Judah is turning umm...

I don't know.

He's turning something and we are having a little birthday party

over at the house.

and when I asked him who he would like to perform at the party.

He told me he wanted you.

Really?

I know, I didn't believe it either I...

I offered him Miley Cyrus, and Justin Beiber and...

Amandy patinket but no, no he told me he wanted you the great and wonderful

Burt Wonderstone.

For 10 years I played the biggest room in Vegas.

I traveled the world, I dined with kings

and now!

I'll pay you $500 bucks.

I will do it!

Good.

Doug Munny asked me to perform at his kids birthday party

are you gonna do it?

I will if you'll be my partner.

I don't know I'll have to shave.

Come on Rance it will be fun.

I see it in your eyes,when you do a tric. Its like your

I want to show you something that I think will change your mind.

I'm 75.

Ladies and gentlemen the human piata!

Now this morning I ate a thousand peices of hard candy.

And I've got to get them out or I will surely die.

What is this an escape?

I wouldn't count on it.

Come on hit me as hard as you can.

Yeah, is that all you've got?!

Oh Jesus! This is disgusting!

Can I be a magician when I grow up?

Maybe if you get good grades.

This is what they call "Magic" these days?

This is some kine of terrible sh*t.

Ladies and gentlemen Steve Gray.

Nicole?

Jane.

Goddam that's the worst thing I ever saw in my life.

And I saw my kids being born.

Holy mackerel are you kidding me, Burt?

You never told us you were friends with the famous Rance Holloway.

It is an honor sir.

Your too kind.

Mr. Holloway.

Wjhat in the hell happen to you?

I work with cats, large cats.

I went on a date last night, and one of them got jealous and

ripped my face.

God damn.

Oh my girlfriend got it worst.

They said this was a magicians bar.

What are you doing in here?

Mr. Gray.

What you do is not magic.

It is monkey porn.

I understand, its natural for a dying leaf to be frighten

by the autumn wind.

Its not about pulling a rabbit out of your hat anymore.

Its about pulling your heart out of your chest.

What the hell is that suppose to mean?

It means I take peoples nightmares and turn them

into dream realities.

What in the f*** is a "Dream Reality?"

And you are?

Hold on there Steve Gray,

your telling us you don't know who Rance Holloway is?

never heard of him.

We owe this man everything,and you don't know who he is.

I didn't say I didn't know who he is.

I said I never heard of him.

Your skin makes me cry.

Thats a very sick hombre.

Well when do we start rehearsing our kid show?

You ready?

Lets give it a try.

Say would you like to go golfing?

Sure!

There you go.

He must be golfing?

Rance Holloway!

Thank you.

This is my handkerchief.

Thank you very much.

Burt?

Hey what are you dong here?

I came to visit my grandmother.

Hi.

Hello darling.

Grace is your grandmother?

Yeah, what are you doing here?

I entertain the residence.

I haven't seen her this happu in ages.

We're having an affair.

I don't get it

I don't understand how you can work for Steve Gray.

You are so much better than that

You didn't thikn of that when I asked to be your partner.

Well that was a different time. Women didn't have the same

freedom as they do now.

It was a month ago.

Listen, I know he sucks, I need a job.

and I don't have to defend myself to you.

No, I know you don't Jane.

Thank you.

Did you just actually call me by my real name?

I'm sorry, I'm sorry that i've been suck a jerk to you.

and that I was so unprofessional.

and that I always called you Nicole even though I knew

your name was Jane.

There's a hundred more things on my internal check list.

OK...

that I objectified you and I always stood too close to you

and that I yelled at you,

and that I tried to make you feel uncomfortable...

And that I...

OK, you can stop don't hurt yourself.

So whatever I did that was insensitive and stupid, I'm sorry.

Well on the behalf of all the Nicoles for the last 10 years

I accept your apology.

Thank you Nicoles.

We were I don't know 10 or 11...
