I want you to take that with you hey yeah it was the strangest thing um it was it was extremely weird the dream you came in you had guns blazing you were shooting everybody underneath to the Sun I don't know why but you took seven shots teller walked in he couldn't stop talking it was extremely weird I'm gonna keep this license and I'll get back to you in a little bit give Carlos a round of applause as he makes his way down take your hands like this you would slowly bring them together cool perfect and stop because this is a perfect time to start praying right now we're gonna play a game called is this Mentalist a homicidal suicidal maniac right now Penn & Teller have to decide whether or not they are about to die clearly by the fact that they're still sitting here they're choosing to believe that I am NOT going to kill them a prediction which they're making right now kind of life or death well I'll say what tell her if you don't mind just hang on to that now would I really kill these people no but the funny part is if that would have gone off that would have been a definitive way to say that I could fool them but this is all building up to the climax and for it I need to ask Penn & Teller to join me on stage I want all of us to climax together grab a seat thanks red Kalia you can keep that as a souvenir now here's the thing most most people keep their driver's license in their wallet I don't see tonight I have something completely different I have something weird my membership my club is an organization that gives out plastic membership cards we actually keep these with our name and our birthdays as proof that we're members of the club inside of Maya wallet here pinned up is a membership card stamped with a name and a date now we always keep the birthdays here um in fact it's embossed stamped into the card like you would have a credit card at home pen feel it make sure that's actually embossed and stamped into the car yeah well it is it is now over here read the name that's at the Tahoe parlors now we still have Carlos's license verify is his name Carlos tell her yes it's actually there and underneath is a date stamped into the card well what it was the month just a month are January January it was she he was born in January wasn't now what date of the month does it say on the card 14 was he born January 14th Carlos welcome to the car and thank you for not blowing them up I appreciate it yeah the explosion was mental not physical because that's highly illegal I found out yes being a Mentalist you prefer that over magic um a lot of guys will say I'm a magician I'm a sleight-of-hand artists I'm gonna skate bars or I'm a Mentalist or um and choose one I took the path I wanted both I do mentalism which is psychologically based stuff mainly and I also do sleight of andalusia cuz it's fun and I like and you're also a body language expert uh you know I would never even say I'm an expert at anything but little tricks like for example you're sitting in what's called the fig-leaf position it's like you're wearing nothing but a fig leaf right now this is a position people go into when they're nervous like standing next to a mind-reader maybe they go protection mode okay all right I'll stop now you're just protecting the back now that's a alright Penn teller we have this one nailed well no problem this is not real dynamite thanks a lot for being here Wayne did something really amazing you didn't mentalism without being a sleazeball he did mentalism is a really good trick and it's a really modern version of card to wallet which is a which is a classic and a wonderful effect but done where being something done with a membership card instead of a playing card it's also it's such a new version that you could not have done this trick thirty years ago uh-huh true yes and I hope that gives you a little bit of a little bit of a hint but uh I'm a little slow so maybe we can creep okay well we really liked was we really liked the whole set and all the stuff you had set up here and tell her you know is redecorating his living room and was wonder if he could borrow the tablecloth he'd take that with us right now could you borrow the tablecloth right now yes absolutely we could we could take the tablecloth right now yes we'd love to we'd love to see up there okay we could take this something under the table tablecloth with us and there's a table all right okay for a party that we're going to have for you having fooled us you thank you so much
