- Hey, you wanna go outside?
What do you wanna go outside for?
(door creaking)
Hue, what's this?
Hue, what is this?
What's this?
Do you see?
Who left this here?
Alright, so this anomaly showed up on my doorstep.
Luckily my cat found it.
Let's have a look and see what's inside?
Just as you would expect
with a magician's doorstep, another box.
A nest of boxes if you will.
I got a question for you.
Why would you put the box with the stamps on the inside?
You know what, never mind.
The package arrived, that's what counts.
That's what we're here for.
So let's leave this aside.
Talk about what's in here.
Hopefully no anthrax.
Playing cards.
Yeah, if you're lucky to get one thing
over the holidays for your magician friend,
make sure it's five playing cards, not a full deck
'cause who needs a full deck of cards
when you can have five playing cards.
That's what it is.
Whatever, okay.
Five cards.
They seem normal but here's the thing
you gotta watch out for when magicians have playing cards.
A lot of the times, they're gaffe we say or gimmicks
which means they do certain things
that change into another card or something.
These for the most part, these seem normal.
I think I know what these are.
These are the cards, here let me demonstrate.
There's certain cards that if you deal them down
in a certain way, they actually okay let me show you.
They actually disappear.
Isn't that crazy?
Let's try it again.
Deal some over here and over here.
They just go away, so that's that.
They don't actually go away, no they don't.
Yeah, I know.
Well okay, there should be.
Let's lock this up.
Do wanna get confused here.
Oh, would you look at that.
Playing cards.
So if you're feeling as confused as I am at this point.
Don't fret.
I feel like this is one of those fever streams
you have after eating too much chocolate.
So you're not alone in feeling very confused.
Okay, let's try this one more time.
You have five playing cards
and if all goes well and you deal them correctly
you can just like that drop them right into the box.
I think i'mma go drop this off at my neighbor's house.
