Now You See Me: Now You Don't (2025) Movie Script

1
Bose men, bose men, bose men, bose men,
bose men, bose men...
Can you think we abandoned you?
Or that we'd run out of magic?
Well, think again, ladies and gentlemen,
because you are about to be amazed.
If you're here right now, then you have
followed the clues and cracked the code.
Congratulations and welcome.
It's been 10 years since the horsemen last
appeared, but we are back.
Okay, so come in close, in closer,
because the more you think you see,
the easier it'll be to dress up old tricks
and fool you that they are new.
So my name is Jay Daniel Atlas and allow
me to speak as I often do for my less
charismatic colleagues when I say,
it is very good to be back.
Yes, yes, we've vanished
for a while, but in the
world of magic, everything
that disappears, reappears.
Well, at least if the trick is done right.
I'm Aaron McKinney.
Unlike my very good
buddy here, Danny, most
of you checked your
egos at the door tonight.
You found this little underground soiree
because you wanted to get fooled.
Hey, everyone, I'm Jack Wilder.
For pandemics, climate change, AI, let's
face it, y'all need magic more than ever.
I want you to pay very close attention.
You are not going to want to miss this
next trick.
Scanlan, three kids, two dogs and a
master's degree.
It's been a while.
Did you miss us?
You guys were great back in the day.
I used to want to be a magician.
Then I turned 12.
Careful.
They might be listening.
Oh, I'm shaking in my all saints.
What are they going to do?
Is that real gold?
What?
Is that real gold?
Yeah, I'm rich.
This is a magic show, dude.
Every fool here is a pickpocket.
Or a pickpocket school.
Was that a haiku?
What was that?
Each of you just received a playing card.
If you wouldn't mind pulling it out.
Great.
Now we're going to shuffle the deck.
So everybody find a random person near
them and switch cards with them.
And then when you've done that,
find somebody else and switch with them.
Okay, great.
You there, down there.
What is your card?
Ace of Diamonds.
Let's make things a little more
complicated here.
Does anybody else here have the Ace of
Diamonds?
It's me, Ace of Diamonds.
Looks like we have a fifth horseman not
named Lula.
Come up on stage.
You're going to be our helper.
Now, look into my eyes and sleep.
Still got it.
Now this might look like an
ordinary kid to you, but tonight
he is going to do extraordinary
magic like a man possessed.
Literally.
Henley.
Yes, Mary.
Would you mind stepping inside his body?
And Jack, why don't you throw yourself on
in there too?
What I do best.
And God help you.
Atlas, why don't you slither on inside as
well?
And I might as well wedge myself in there
too.
It takes a village to make magic.
Jay, Daniel, Atlas in the house.
So, who wants to see a magic trick?
Hello, you beautiful people.
Now, everyone knows that Merritt McKinney
reads minds.
Well, now I'm him.
Or he's me.
Who knows?
I'm sensing someone came here tonight not
to enjoy magic, but to tear it down.
Is there a Brett Finnegan in the house?
Now, you and your friends here set up the
Camp Hobart crypto exchange.
Took the good people of New York's employee
pension and welfare fund half its cash.
If you're rounding up, and also the risks
were laid out very clearly.
Everybody knew what they were getting
into, dude.
Did you hide the profits offshore?
Count ending in five, three, two,
nine, seven.
You couldn't know that without my...
Oh, is this real gold?
Brett, you ought to be more careful with
your things, man.
Merritt's a psychic, but me, Jack,
I'm into sleight of hand.
Ask your friends.
They've just done their part to close the
wealth gap.
Now, here's a little redistribution.
Thank you, thank you.
Boy, you're up, dude.
I'll kick your ass.
Uh-oh.
Someone forgot Henley can fly.
Hey, hey.
Fantastic.
So, everybody, I want
you to take your drink, and
I want you to pour it
onto the face of your card.
Can you do that?
Those 12 unique words
on each of your cards
form the password to
your new crypto wallet.
Log on, and you'll find Brett's stolen
millions more.
Fairly redistributed.
Oh, my God.
50,000 bucks?
50,000 bucks?
You friggin' bread?
Because I am having a vision.
Eh, maybe.
Cops are gonna come bursting
through that door to perform
a magic trick of your own and
disappear in three, two, one.
Closer.
Because the more you think
you see, the easier it'll be
to dress up all tricks and
fool you that they are new.
Oh.
Oh, my God, no.
No!
A great job.
I think my atlas was good.
My mare could probably do some work.
It's like a San Diego stone or a shrimp
boat captain had a baby.
Sure.
No, seriously, boss, God, I don't know how
you do it.
A good impersonation isn't just about the
mimicry.
It's about attention to detail.
Personality and nuance.
Okay, let me try, let me try.
I am J.
Daniel Atlas.
The closer you look at the, the less you
see.
It was something.
You'll work on it.
It wasn't that.
That was a good start, but I could use
some work.
Sure.
What do you keep looking at?
Nothing.
Cheer up.
Guys, come on, look at us.
How far we've been.
Totally scored tonight.
Alright, next time you wear the pink wig,
okay?
No.
Dude, lock in.
Okay, I'll pick it.
Wait, wait, wait.
Hold on.
Do the thing.
No.
Please do the thing.
It's so unnecessary.
I'll hold you back.
It's so unnecessary.
It's fine.
Okay.
You got this.
She's like a little Mario.
She is like Mario.
Careful, careful.
Are you okay?
Yeah.
If I could do that, I would only do that.
So cool.
It's insane.
Happy?
Yeah, that was awesome.
Please let us in.
It's cold.
The best apartment in the whole city.
Yup.
And no one will ever see it but us.
It's such a shame.
That guy is so screwed.
He was rich now.
Charlotte, can you turn that thing off
because I've had enough atlas for one night?
No, I gotcha.
Bosco, can you check for pizza?
I'm so hungry.
Me too.
No pizza but we got beer.
And no, literally just beer.
Anything?
Yeah, I'll have one.
Dude, seriously, turn that thing off.
I did.
Okay, real funny, guys.
Where's the other projector?
I'm not a hologram.
I'm not a hologram, right, yes.
Exactly what a hologram would say.
Oh my God, you're real.
You never touched my face again.
I'm so sorry, I thought that you were a
hologram.
I would never do that.
I'm a huge fan of yours.
How are you?
How did you find us?
I don't know.
It took me about 30 seconds.
And if it was this easy for me to find
you, how hard would it be for the police?
Well, hold on, the police?
Yeah, the police.
Why would the police be looking for us?
I don't know.
What about that little heist you just
pulled?
Or the fact that you're
squatting in this place so that
your electricity comes from
the circuit box in the corner.
I don't know.
It could be anything.
Am I right, Bozo?
Bosco.
Bosco Leroy.
That's right.
Yeah, Bosco Leroy.
What did you type fictional magician name
into chat GPT?
Oh, that's actually my real name,
Atlas.
Would your mom have sex with a map?
That's not funny.
You don't know anything about us,
do you?
I know everything about you.
The dubiously named Bosco Leroy.
A promising acting career cut short by
crippling student loans.
It's a bummer you had to drop out of
Juilliard.
But you never stopped performing.
If memory serves, your last paid gig I
think was dressing as Elmo in Times Square.
Your first fall out of an Elmo.
It was the Red Teletubby.
Poe.
The Red Teletubby.
Her name is Poe.
Oh, Poe.
She's my favorite one.
Her name is Poe.
Cute.
And you, June McClaire.
Kicked out of every boarding school your
parents force you to attend.
Not a big fan of authority, I take it.
Let me guess.
You think the Olds broke
the planet and it's your
generation's duty to clean
up their mess, am I right?
Am I wrong?
No.
And so you ran away from home,
made your way to New York, where you ran
into this guy at Tannen's Magic Shop,
Charlie Gies.
Yeah, I...
I actually couldn't find a lot about you
online, although I do know you were an
orphan and you were in and out of foster
care your entire childhood and that you
didn't know the meaning of family until
you hooked up with these two.
And so the three of you have been working
your little Robin Hood act for years now,
trying to change the
world one trick at a time, all
leading to your riskiest
step to date, my identity.
You were there?
You had our faces plastered at every
scaffolding and subway stop in the city.
That's copyright infringement,
by the way, of course I was there.
So, what'd you think?
I think your merit needs work.
I knew it.
That's a sensitive topic you don't even
get on.
But overall design was impressive,
and that's you, I assume, the quiet guy,
textbook behind the scenes.
Yeah, well, Alexander
Herman, he said that the people
who designed his tricks
were the real geniuses.
The fact that you know that man's name
behind the scenes, clearly.
And you, your sleight of hand was
advanced, good dexterity, your quick and
nimble on your feet, really, I was
impressed.
Thanks.
You're welcome.
Sounds like we're pretty great.
You're far from it, but maybe with a
little fine tuning you could be.
Yeah, I could see why the eye sent me to
you.
I'm sorry.
Did you say the eye?
Yeah, the eye.
All right, listen.
This card arrived at my apartment three
weeks ago, along with four plane tickets
and instructions hidden
in the lining for a trick
bigger and better than
anything you have ever done.
You've never seen a trick that, for
some reason, includes the three of you.
Us?
Why not the other horsemen?
The other horsemen are dead.
What?
To me.
They're dead to me.
Stop interrupting.
No, things got emotional.
Everyone quit.
I took a walkabout in Australia.
It's a long story.
And now you need us.
According to that card, yes.
Well, we don't need
you, so... Bosco.
What?
What do we need this guy for?
We're crushing it.
You're crushing it?
You're stealing a little money from some
crypto, bro.
I am talking about big fish here,
man.
I'm talking about something that will make
a real difference.
I thought that's what you kids are all
about.
It is.
No, exactly.
Yes, we are.
Yeah, but I think we can catch our own
fish.
You can?
No.
No.
Good luck with that.
No, can you just wait one second?
What are you doing here?
What's going on?
Are you out of your mind?
Like, this is J.
Daniel Atlas.
Yeah, I know who he is.
He's a frickin' legend.
He was a legend now.
He's just kind of a dick.
Can you... Sure, Bosco.
He is kind of a dick, but he is a
horseman.
I mean, come on, just trust us on this,
please.
Okay, precision time, kids.
What's it going to be?
Are you in?
Or are you out?
What's the trick?
Value press, friends and colleagues.
We are gathered here tonight to celebrate
Vanderbilt's latest and greatest mind.
C-3, or as we like to call her,
our machele.
Zulu for the beautiful one.
Because every child is beautiful in the
eyes of its mother, our customer can rest
assured that when they
buy the world's greatest
symbol of love, that it was
produced with nothing but.
It's your machele!
Thank you all of you.
Well, thank you all so much for making the
trip out here.
Now, I take it you are all impressed by a
machele.
Sorry, C-3.
Oh, it's quite dramatic.
But I also understand that you have chosen
this fine day to bridge some concerns.
Which contrary to your expectations,
I don't regret.
Fire away.
Right.
Well, the board fieldset projections might
be optimistic, but increasing competition
from lab growth and in the event borrowing
rates of time...
William, my father loved you, but there
was a reason he called you his dark cloud.
The Vanderbilt family does not lose.
As you're well aware,
our motorsports team just
won the Monaco Championship
for the seventh time.
The man will produce.
Next.
Right.
Pricing.
The minimums that you've set for...
Will you humor me, William, in a
demonstration about reality?
This diamond is, say, what, 35 carats.
The AWDC would price it at 3 million US
dollars.
William, will you open your mouth and
stick out your tongue?
Now.
Really?
Really.
Now, if William here
were to swallow it, that
self-same diamond would
tear his throat to shreds.
He would bleed to death before paramedics
arrived.
So to the AWDC, it's 3 million,
but to William, priceless.
Tell me then, as the CEO responsible for
the world's last great diamond mines,
should I undercut our profits or should I
choose prices that I know our unique
clients will pay?
As I thought.
Now.
Unless there are more
concerns, I would like to hit
the Antwerp with my price
list and show off our stones.
You know, you probably could have led with
free trip to Europe.
You know, a little known fact about
Antwerp.
Oh, great.
We're magic trivia.
This is fun.
No, I was just going to say that they make
great biscuits.
Oh, do they?
Can we actually get some, please?
On Atlas, obviously.
No, no, no.
I'm not getting you biscuits.
I just got you chocolates, okay?
All right, listen, this is not a vacation,
okay?
We have three days to prepare an effect
that'll make your barely passable,
peppered ghost trip look like a cave
painting.
All right, come here.
The heart diamond, the
most valuable jewel in history,
and the foundation of the
Vandenberg Mining Corporation.
Now, for years, the families kept this big
rock hidden inside their secret vault.
70 stories underground, and not just any
ground, the Arabian desert.
No one beyond their most trusted team has
been inside.
Access through a single elevator,
constantly monitored by armed guards.
And behind a multi-level biometric
security system.
But the world will be watching,
because for the first time in half a
century, that diamond is being traveled
here.
To Antwerf, to establish credibility,
and to start bidding at a private option
for the company's latest finds,
in three days' time.
Okay, obviously I'm down for stealing,
but what makes this diamond so special?
Well, because the magical tarot card
called us to January.
Yeah, okay, that's very cute.
But can I please finish?
If you don't finish, geez, you've been
talking forever.
Yes, and I'm about to talk more,
so please, pay attention.
For decades, first Peter Vandenberg,
now his daughter Veronica, have been
selling these diamonds at inflated prices
to arms dealers, traffickers, warlords,
the world over to, like, help launder
their money.
So, I mean, the cash is dirty.
I mean, in some cases, it's, like,
literally blood-soaked.
But then, voila, it's cleaned in exchange
for these precious stones.
She makes all the world's worst people
possible.
So, whoever sent that tarot card...
Are the few truly honorable people left in
this world.
The only people that still care about
justice.
They're people I haven't spoken to in a
long time.
They call themselves the Eye.
And they want us to do something that the
horsemen never could.
This, man.
This is a chance to drive a stake through
the heart of the devil herself.
Let's do it.
All eyes will be on me and the heart
tonight at the auction.
I have to look dazzling.
Do you have that kitten kiss color?
That's our bird.
Yes.
Straw.
Who's that British photographer from
Venetife?
Uh, what's his name again?
Mark... Mark Scryber?
Scryber, good God.
Scryber.
Confirm him, cancel the others.
We went wide last year.
This year, exclusivity.
All right.
We're open, transparent.
We have nothing to hide.
Okay, perfect.
I'll have it done.
This is Veronica.
Who is this?
The Kate.
How did you get this number?
This is a private line.
And that was a bit turned dead.
I'll ask who you are.
Ah, Veronica.
The storage unit to your left.
Look familiar.
It belongs to that boy who died 15 years
ago.
This means nothing to me or anyone.
Really?
You and I both know what you did.
Look, if you have real evidence and you're
out to get me, why not just use it?
This is
once the heart damage.
You're going to kill it to me.
I'm going to hold up a looking glass for
the whole world to see you as you are.
Go ahead.
I have nothing to hide.
Oh my God, I'm so sorry about that.
Hi, can you help me find this?
I've been looking clearly for an hour.
Yes, it's going to be right over there,
ma'am.
Mark Stryber, James Nguyen, Vandenberg PR.
Huge admirer of your work.
James, what happened to Danny?
Oh, Danny, yeah, sadly we had to let her
go.
Turns out she was racist.
And also, she booked you into the Radisson
Blue in a partial view double.
Thankfully, I took the liberty of moving
you to the front.
I do not guess.
Yes, the residential
suite is befitting of, well,
presidents and talented
photographers like yourself.
Your gal invitation has been rerouted,
if I could just check your confirmation.
Thank you.
I also bumped your shoot from 7 to 9 p.m.
to give you proper time to make your
magic.
Someone gets it.
Take, for instance, diamonds created in
laboratories.
They purport to have value, but they're
neither natural nor red.
What honest woman wants a falsehood on her
finger?
One of the great truths left is the power
behind a natural gem.
Real diamonds fill people with passion,
as they have for centuries.
That's right.
In fact, Marie Antoinette wore the Hope
Diamond for a single day, and a month
later was dragged to the guillotine by some
very, well, as you say, passionate folks.
Marie Antoinette didn't die because of a
diamond.
She died because of a monstrous lack of
empathy.
And truth is, she never even wore the
Hope.
People just believed she did.
Really?
That's kind of interesting.
So it was not the mob that killed her,
and it was not the guillotine.
It was a story.
I must not know my own guest list.
Are you in the diamond business?
No, no, I'm in the illusion business like
you.
See, for centuries, diamonds were
worthless until some very smart,
very rich people like Veronica here told
us that not only are these little shards
of glass rare, but
that no self-respecting
couple could possibly
get married with that one.
No, no, that one is a good magic trick.
The problem with the trick is all the good
ones have a little twist in the tail.
Is it you?
Is it with me?
Of course not.
No, no, I mean, you wouldn't have
let me in had I not demonstrated
the finest moral fiber like
some of your other guests.
I notice Louise Briseno, the arms dealer
over there.
Hello, sir.
And of course, Maria Bortnick,
when star struck, how she
manages to mingle while
monopolizing her state media.
Perhaps you care to reveal yourself.
Then we can apply the same scrutiny to
you.
Not just yet.
I'm sorry for interrupting.
That won't be necessary.
Let you need cake.
Mark Schreiber.
Veronica Vanderberg.
Let's make this quick, shall we?
Our auction begins shortly.
I trust you can do me and the heart
justice.
Yes, I only have one rule.
What I say goes.
Well, I'm sure I can find my submissive
side.
Well, if not, I'll find it for you.
Oh, I like you.
Right this way, darling.
I don't want to be too mad.
Sure, sure, sure.
But I don't like the sides of my nose
shining.
Show me.
Excuse me.
Can the little fruit fly in my shop
please?
Shoe, shoe, shoe.
Thank you.
The only thing more valuable than that
diamond is my time.
I did my research on you.
Your industry like mine is besieged by
manufactured allure, but you.
You bring us beauty as it is.
We're alike in that regard.
We don't sell contrivance.
We sell reality.
Well, I would argue that we don't sell at
all.
Others buy.
The diamond, take it out.
Aye, boy.
Absolutely not.
The glare in the glass from all the
photos.
I don't tolerate imperfections.
I don't imagine someone as ravishing as
Miss Vanderberg does either.
So, take it out or find yourself a new
photographer.
And she's always hoping you'd ask.
I don't remember asking.
There it is.
Beautiful.
Work it.
Fabulous.
Fabulous.
Fabulous.
Beautiful.
Yes.
Smiling.
We're having fun.
This is what we came for.
Hold it.
Hold it.
That's the money shot.
Hold it.
And you, ma'am, are far enough.
Also, I'm just trying to help.
Her forehead is shining with him.
It's a hybrid.
I'm doing my job.
When it comes to the heart, you listen to
me.
Get out.
I can walk myself.
Thank you.
Mr. Schrabber, if you're all you purport to
me, you should already have what you need.
More than enough.
Thank you.
Excellent.
Well, it's been a pleasure that I have
bias waiting.
Enough.
Time's ticking.
Let's go.
The auction we've all been waiting for.
Now, if you're here tonight, you probably
think you've seen everything.
So it is to you that I ask... everything?
It's not been seen in person for a quarter
of a century.
Still the largest diamond ever discovered,
the heart.
Congratulations to all of you for getting
away with it for so long.
Well, guess what?
Climate change doesn't believe in you
either.
You tore your fortunes
from our Mother Earth,
set fire to her skies
and your private jets.
She gets it.
Let her dry with your insatiable...
And you're wasting mine.
Zip it, sparkles.
Why don't you stop sucking on plastic
straws and suck on this?
Honored guests, my name is Jay Daniel
Atlas.
You may remember me as your personal
favorite of the Four Horsemen of Magic.
And watch closely as I make the famous
heart diamond appear on my palm.
She was.
He must be as starked for attention as
Greenpeace here.
Whereas to show that the diamond is
completely safe.
Is it?
Now, a wise man once
told me, in the mirror, in fact,
never assume you're the
smartest person in the room.
Prove it.
Be my guest.
All right, well, let's see if we can get
that case open.
Abracadabra.
Nope.
Alakazam.
Wait.
Open Sesame.
Oh.
Still safe with me.
No, relax.
Relax, Veronica.
Now, as your ads like to remind us,
diamonds are forever.
Did you say yes or no?
You stop him.
Stop him.
Stop him.
Jack.
Hey, what are you doing here?
Saving your ass.
You're welcome.
You got one too.
Hi, I'm June.
Yeah.
Who's she?
Sorry, she's without me.
I guess you
guys don't care about the environment.
Stronger than you look.
Hey!
Hey, hey, hey!
Stop!
Don't let them get away!
Okay, what now?
My car just said to get you out of there.
I don't know.
I had so many posters of you.
Okay, all right.
Watch out for the bad boy later.
But it does.
You know, it is really nice to see you.
Bad boy later?
We've got to go up.
This
is some bullshit.
What is happening?
Beethoven's concerto in D major.
Bullshit!
Bullshit!
Bullshit!
Whoa!
A merit?
What the hell was that?
Atlas, I would like to see you hypnotize
three dudes in Belgium.
You mean, flourish.
Okay, that explains it.
Lovely reunion.
We have to go.
And please, welcome back!
And may I say, you are welcome.
Okay, come on, let's go!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I
was paying her a compliment
because it was nice
to see her and only her.
We get it.
Up there.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Is that for us?
Do you see any other people trying to
escape?
Come on, come on.
Whoa, whoa!
Bullshit!
Bullshit!
They didn't swap the diamond.
They swapped the case.
You, man, are far enough.
Why don't you start sucking on plastic
straws and suck on this?
We're going to make them regret this.
And then some.
Mark's arrived at Vanity Fair.
What did I miss?
Okay, all right, give it back.
What are you doing?
Hey, heads up.
Okay, don't do that again.
Hey, can I address the infant in the room?
Who are these guys?
These are the wonderful kids that deep
faked our show.
Yeah.
You had the cops sent to my house.
You freaked out my kids.
Yeah, sorry.
Sorry about that.
How are the kids, though?
How was the whole boring suburban life you
left us for?
Hey, relax, man.
You missed your shot.
Didn't you see the size of that rock?
No, let me see that.
Ooh, it's no hard diamond, but it's
impressive.
I already told you, Danny,
I didn't feel safe trying
to escape from a straitjacket
hanging upside down.
I was six months pregnant.
Come on, we would have flipped your right
side up at the end.
You'd have been fine.
You guys didn't even miss me.
How long did it take you to replace me,
an afternoon?
Um, in the better part of an evening.
Hey, speaking of, how is Lula?
Are you guys still, uh... No.
She, uh, she moved to Paris.
I don't know.
She dumped the great J.
Wilder.
My God, I'm sorry, my apologies.
Don't you need to be on some, like, cruise
ship somewhere, humiliating yourself?
Humiliating myself?
Yeah.
I make five figures per cruise,
plus perks.
Plus perks?
He said plus perks.
And I thought Mary drinking himself to
death in Mexico was depressing.
Ooh.
Speaking of, I gotta get back to it.
This liver's not gonna destroy itself.
Can we dry dock this thing?
Wait, wait, wait.
You're leaving?
Well, yeah.
I mean, great catching up.
Um, I don't know.
What?
See you in another ten?
Nice to meet you, little... tassholes.
Adios.
Yeah, you know what?
Well, I'm outta here, too.
I have a gig to get to.
Really?
They're covering your Uber?
Signed an NDA.
Can't say a word.
What are you doing?
Six handles.
None of them open it.
What do you think you're talking to?
I'm sorry, but I don't really know what's
going on with you guys.
I'm getting the feeling
there's a lot of weird
history here, and things
are a little awkward.
Yeah, you guys... you used to be the
horseman.
I don't get it.
Why did you break up?
Ask them.
Ask them why we broke up.
If it was up to me, we wouldn't know.
The eye wanted us to expose a Russian arms
dealer.
We really have to live through this again?
We made some huge mistakes.
We got sloppy cocky.
Because of us, Dylan Shrike will never see
the outside of a Russian prison again.
Who?
Dylan Shrike.
Okay, he's a horseman.
Come on, do your homework, man.
I'm so sorry, guys.
I have no idea.
Why he's stuck in there forever?
Which is obviously a tragedy, and
something I'll never forgive myself for.
No more lying.
Yeah, fine, man, but it didn't mean you
have to quit.
That is... really a bummer, guys.
Sorry about that.
A bummer?
I love the way your generation sums things
up so eloquently.
I mean, someone explain to me why these
previews are even here.
Same reason you are, man.
I wanted him.
Well, we got the heart.
What does the eye want us to do next?
No idea.
I know one thing.
You've got a half a billion dollar diamond
in your hands.
They're gonna get in touch.
Yeah, probably.
Whoa, wait, wait.
Alice, can I see your card?
Yeah.
Whoa.
It's a map.
Hey, Alice, it's your dad.
No, it's... it's a map that only reveals
itself when the horsemen are together.
Huh?
Fat chance.
Really, dude?
I mean, come on, the eye obviously wants
you guys to do this.
You're the horseman.
Start acting like it.
Alright, I suppose Rosarito can wait a
couple days.
I can try to reschedule this gig.
It's not gonna be easy, but I'll figure it
out.
I mean, I have kind
of missed running for
my life and jumping
off rooms with you guys.
It's good to have you back.
Thanks.
Okay, so where is this place?
What are we supposed to be doing here?
The eye will let us know.
Alright, I'll touch you in time.
What are you doing?
Taking a photo.
Please don't post photos of the top secret
location.
I don't want to be in it.
It can be used
for... The memories.
No, not memories, evidence.
Okay,
I can't open it.
You got this, Jack?
Wait, don't you mean June?
Jack's our lockpick.
Whoa, looks like a little healthy
competition.
Come on, this isn't fair.
I've been picking locks since before she
was born.
Let me find the keyhole.
Maybe the other side.
You're not inspiring confidence right now,
Jack.
He's got it.
He's got it.
If you don't arrest me, don't arrest me.
When does he start the lockpicking?
Hey, Jack, I don't think this is a lock
you pick.
I think it's a lock you solve.
Show them how it's done.
Oh, do you mind if I just figure this out
and write something?
Okay.
If you've ever done
an escape room, you'd
know there are all
kinds of different puzzles.
It's not just about locks and keys.
Whoa, you might want to update your game,
Jack.
But by all means, lead the way.
I think you loosened it for her,
ultimately.
Oh, wow.
What is this place?
Magic nerd heaven.
Did you just sell this coffin?
See?
Guys, Houdini's straitjacket.
Yes, it is.
Hey, can I put you in here for old time's
sake?
No.
No?
I thought it was funny.
Thanks a lot.
You want to come in?
No.
Oh, Charlie, check this out, dude.
What is it?
Bullet catch.
No way.
Dead end?
Yeah, dead end.
Hey, guys, dead end.
Or is it?
Oh, my God.
Yeah, it is.
Hmm, that's weird.
The die should be here.
The ball should be here.
Four rows.
One, five, eight, four?
Is it a code?
One, okay, one, minus four.
What?
The discovery of witchcraft.
It's the first book on stage magic.
It's when it was published.
But how did he know that?
He's basically a computer full of useless
information.
This is cool.
Hey, guys, it's the floor plan of the
chateau.
But it's different somehow.
Up is down.
Left is right.
Even the rooms are tricks.
My horseman.
Daddy, it's so good to see you.
So good to see you, Daddy.
Can I just check the ring camera and buzz
this in?
Now, where's the fun in there?
Sir, hi, I'm Charlie.
I'm such a big fan of yours.
Hi, Charlie.
I've never seen a luber lens this big in
person.
Really?
You ain't seen nothing yet.
So you've sent the tarot cards?
No.
I've long since given up such foolishness
and your collective dysfunction.
Now, the only magic I do nowadays is for
my grandchildren.
Some weeks ago, however, a card did appear
on my doorstep, warning me to prepare this
chateau for the arrival of seven
soon-to-be fugitives from the law.
And tracks.
So why does the eye want us here?
I can only assume that
whatever it is they want
you to do next is hidden
somewhere in these walls.
See, this chateau, chateau roussillon,
used to be their home.
In 1943, the Allies needed military
miracles from every source.
They enlisted the aid of some of the most
talented magicians of the time.
They built a full city, using
mud, cardboard, lights,
thousands of inflatable rubber
tanks to misdirect the Germans.
The genius of Jasper Masculine.
Somebody knows his history.
Wait, so what do the Nazis have to do with
the diamond?
That, I do not know.
But the answer is here, somewhere.
We just have to start looking.
Miss Landauberg, Miss Landauberg,
how do you respond to the rumors that your
company is nothing but a front for
bodybuilding?
The horsemen are thieves, posing as
anti-capitalist entertainers.
And they have unfairly targeted me and my
good company.
I challenge anyone who maligns us to look
closely at our operations and our books.
And I challenge police to put those magicians
back where they belong, in the past.
Interpol has said it was an inside job.
Thieves knew exactly where the blind spots
were.
How's it?
Let me guess, you're the one behind these
horsemen in their little stable hands?
No, why would I ask for the diamond in the
Tragistilent?
If I were you, I'd figure out a way to get
it back and fast.
I understand that you and your race team
will be in Abu Dhabi later this week,
a perfect mutual grant.
I'll bring my evidence.
You'll bring your heart.
If you have one.
Have you found them yet?
We do have a few lanes.
They were seen near the south out of
Belgium.
Now they're saying the horsemen have been
seen in France.
One hour ago, the head of the French
police owes me.
Just call him and say that I want these
horsemen's heads served up on a platter.
The gendarme will find them.
Are you sure of it?
That is told us to look for something.
What do you think it is?
Oh, well, this is cool.
You are not a big topper.
Oh, sorry.
But you are a big apologizer.
Sorry.
I just did it again.
Sorry.
I mean, I'm just nervous.
I'm a big fan of you guys.
And I got the cops called on me.
And I'm really not going to say it.
You're a quick human.
And you guys make the horsemen look good.
But I didn't see you.
Why weren't you in it?
Oh, I just... I'm a very big behind the
scenes, you know.
I designed all of my tricks.
Where are we going?
I feel like we're lost.
Do you really prefer that?
Or is that just something you hide behind?
What do you mean?
Well, I... Well, for years I told myself I
wanted to be an assistant.
Not even mine being upstaged by Atlas.
So brilliant.
But really, I just...
I was afraid.
I was afraid to take the spotlight.
Who?
Thaddeus was right.
Up is down.
Upside down room.
Cool.
Cool?
Is nothing impressive to you?
That's why I said cool.
Do you not know what cool means?
Alright, let's just try to figure out how
this room works, okay?
Yeah.
Figured it out.
Of course, that's right.
You know everything already.
So what did I do wrong this time?
Ah, nothing.
My apologies.
You're amazing.
It's an honor to watch you.
Has anyone ever told you that you're a
control freak?
Yep, many times.
Whoa, thanks.
Anything weird?
This is all weird.
Jesus.
Look at this.
You know, I have always looked up to you.
Oh, yeah?
Yeah, before you became a crucial
magician.
Hey, I also do corporate events.
Oh, no way.
I couldn't tell.
So that was a total waste.
What now?
One trick, okay?
No charm, no gift of gas.
Just one trick.
Dude, I do not have to prove myself to
you.
I mean, you kind of do.
Show me why the eye picked you.
You know what?
Prove to me that you don't need a
babysitter.
Oh, what?
Now you stop performing?
You're done showing off because your
misfit friends aren't here?
They're my family.
Don't you dare.
I don't have to impress them.
All right, fine.
Forget it.
I just wanted to see
what you were capable of
when you weren't trying
to win cheap applause.
But I guess the answer is nothing.
All right.
Want to see a magic trick?
See, the problem with you, Atlas,
is that you just like to overcomplicate.
What do you think, man?
It is a lot easier to find a diamond than
you think and to make it disappear.
Nice.
Check your pocket.
Really?
Yeah.
Not bad.
Card to impossible location.
But don't play checkers on a chessboard
because I'm already five steps ahead of you.
Check your pocket.
Hey, those are prices antiques.
Yeah.
This room is where old relics go to their
final resting place.
Yep.
You are probably right, Thaddeus,
but not before they have one last shot.
Hi, Glory.
What's going on here?
Pretty good, but you should try to do
things a little more slow.
Really?
Let your audience enjoy the real magic.
Okay.
Oh, wow.
Thanks, Uncle Oscar.
I've never been great at poker,
but is a diamond trumped by a heart?
Oh, there it is.
That's misdirection.
But let's not forget what this is really
about.
Jump, jump.
Making a jewel disappear.
Let's see this one.
All right, let's put your eye on the
prize.
Round and round they go.
Where they stop, nobody knows.
Good as...
Keep going.
Black art, table's rigged.
Saw it when it came in.
Not for a penis game.
Oh, yeah.
Where's he going?
I know what he's doing.
Jack in the box.
That's a trick.
All right, folks, stop.
If I had known he was that
easy to get rid of... Not that easy.
Yeah, Jack.
Oh, okay.
Enough of the warm-up.
Time for the headliner.
I want you to think of one of these cards.
But don't think of the one you think I
want you to think of.
Got one?
Yeah, I got one.
What was your card?
Four of hearts.
Oh.
Nice one, Professor.
I'm impressed.
I'm impressed.
Hey, hey.
I've pushed his older than you.
Sorry, boss.
So sorry.
Look, you guys, I'm not going to lie.
This is really cool.
Really, really cool.
Go show them.
But I think I just want to make it a
little cooler.
Thank you.
Thank you, guys.
That was warm in China.
There we are.
Thank you.
That was very white and winter,
guys.
Snow is rare in this part of France,
but ice... That is just impossible.
Classic.
Nice.
How'd you do a vanish so good?
Oh, a magician never tells.
Check.
Mate.
Shit.
Face it, Bosco.
Wisdom and skill overcome youth and
arrogance every time.
Thank you.
Never assume you're the smartest guy in
the room.
Prove it.
Give me a break, man.
You didn't prove anything.
Hey, can I just remind everyone?
We still haven't figured out why we're
even in this World War II relic.
Wait.
Jasper Masculine.
The magician who vanquished the Nazis.
He built fake cities.
Fake tanks.
I mean...
I wonder...
Whoa.
Oh, wow.
Oh, my God, I was right.
Hey, magic 101, man.
Never ex-surprise when the trick actually
works.
Sorry.
Oh, my goodness.
What is all that?
A encyclopedia of Nazi war criminals.
Which apparently includes Veronica's dad.
After World War II surviving Nazis fled
around the world, I'm not an accountant,
but looks like Peter Vandenberg got rich
cleaning their dirty money.
Yeah, and apparently
Veronica took over right
where he left off using
his criminal network.
But I don't understand.
What does the eye want us to do with this?
Well, if I'm not mistaken...
The eye wants us to unmask the
Vandenbergs.
Bring down two generations of criminals
with a single sleight of hand.
I've read some interesting rumors about
the Vandenbergs online.
Looks like 15 years ago
Veronica's mom killed herself,
and a week later their
housekeepers' breaks failed.
Her car crashed, she and her son died.
There was some suspicion of foul play,
but nothing was ever proven.
Whoa.
Hold on, hold on, hold on.
Listen closely.
Splitter, find a way out.
Go, go, go!
He's right, everybody split up.
It's a bit of a mess.
It's a mess, we're going to get out of
here.
We'll go to the other
side of the universe, it's
a bit complicated, I'm
going to get out of here.
Hey, we're going to get out of here.
We're going to go to the other side of the
universe.
Turn around.
Turn around.
You heard him, Bosco.
Turn around.
Here they come.
Adios, mon ami.
Good meal.
You know, normally I like to give a proper
tour to new guests.
I suspect you've discovered that this
house holds many secrets.
Adios!
Adios!
Would you like to see a magic trick?
Yes, of course.
How about if I make myself disappear?
Move, move, move, move!
What are you doing?
I'm going to get out of here.
Oh, thank God.
Hey, which is the fastest way out of here?
Around this man.
Yeah.
This is the fastest way.
Just follow the creek.
Through the bars.
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.
This can't be happening.
Come on, Adios, stand up.
We're going to go now.
We need to get you help.
Please, stand up.
You have to stand for Anika Vandenberg.
No, we can't do it without you,
Adios.
You don't need me.
But you do need each other.
Never forget that.
And I knew when I came here, this was
probably my final trade.
Now, don't let me die in vain.
There's work to be done.
Open the whole pool.
Go.
Go now.
Go.
Please.
Before us.
June.
The police took June into custody.
Well, what about Jack and Mary?
Them two.
Okay, so we break them out.
Well, let's just talk about this for a
second.
Talk about what?
Listen to me.
We need to be smart.
No, we got to get my friend out of jail.
Look, when you were researching all that
stuff about us, you know, it didn't come up.
Charlie and June are my only friends.
You know what I really love about them?
They don't make me feel like an asshole.
I'm getting June.
Hey, listen to me.
Listen to me.
You can't.
Why?
Tell me.
They're looking for you, Bosco.
They're looking for all of us.
Yes.
Yes.
You're going to get arrested too.
Shit.
If only there was somebody
else crazy enough to
stage a jailbreak with no
resources, no protection.
Atlas?
Yeah.
Maybe there is.
That is Marcus Bradley.
In case you're interested in the name of
the man you just murdered.
Ah, yes.
That was unfortunate.
You know, when this whole thing started,
I didn't give a shit about you or your
diamond, but you just went and made it
deeply personal.
And now, I am really looking forward to
taking you down.
My father would have loved you.
He was quite fond of magic.
When I was five or six, in one of the few
moments that I had him to myself,
he taught me a trick.
He would make a red silk handkerchief
disappear and then come back out of his mouth.
I loved it.
It had just the right amount of flair.
And I practiced that trick for months.
I thought that if I could do just
right, I would earn more of... of him.
But that was the illusion.
I've hated magic ever since.
The camp, the cheese.
Not to say anything of con artists like
you with your mentalism.
Neither one of us has psychic powers,
Mr. McKinney.
And you don't have to.
You know where my heart is.
And I don't have to, because you're going
to tell me.
I think you're smart
enough to know that I
ain't telling you shit,
as we say in Texas.
And you're wrong about mentalism.
People wear their entire life story on
their face.
You just have to know how to read it.
Take yours, for example.
May I?
With pleasure.
This is going to be fun.
Well, you've already shared an
excruciating detail, your daddy issues,
but I'm curious about your mom.
Why did she commit suicide?
Was she as desperate for your father's
attention as you were?
Oh, she was.
And why was that?
Did your father give his attention to
someone else?
When you tuck your hair behind your ear,
that's a tell.
He was.
So, was he banging his secretary?
No, that's too cliche.
But it had to be someone close to your mom
for her too.
A good friend?
A hairdresser?
It wasn't the housekeeper, was it?
No, not the housekeeper.
I don't have time for this.
And that's what people usually say when
I'm getting hot.
Should we crank up the AC, maybe open a
window?
Now, if my dad was having sex with my
housekeeper and my mom found out and
committed suicide, I probably wouldn't cut
the brakes on my housekeeper's car.
But then again, I'm not a psychopath.
You are a sad and pathetic man.
I can see why you want to end it.
Hey, Veronica, you know, walking away is
also a tell.
Jeff!
Jeff!
Please, don't!
Please, don't!
What?
I'm not going to do it.
You're not?
I'm not going to do it!
Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no!
No!
No, no, no, no, no, no!
No!
No!
I'm not going to do it!
You are the first man to change his
responsibilities.
But, I'm not.
I'm not going to change his life.
No, no, no.
You're not going to change your life.
You're not playing with me!
No!
You're not playing with me!
You're not playing with me!
You're not playing with me!
Oh, no, no!
Wait, she, where is the girl?
She's so close.
Oh, she's not with you.
She's not with you.
Bon soir.
It's pretty disgusting.
Even for you.
I think I may have overdone it on the
wine.
Hi, Lula.
You look great, by the way.
Okay.
I didn't think I'd ever see you again.
How'd you find us?
A little girl.
He told me.
Imagine my surprise.
You guys all go back together without me.
But no, it's not like that.
You don't understand.
Oh, was it?
No?
You're free, dick.
The cavalry!
Miss me?
A lot.
Oh, hello there.
It's me, Lula.
Teeth.
Lula!
Remember?
I, too, was once a horseman.
Yeah, I asked about you.
I was the only one.
You were the one.
He was the only one.
Really?
All right, to move.
We have to get to the meetup.
Okay, here's the plan.
I have the getaway car.
It's all ready to go.
I just need Jack to hotwire it.
Well, your plan is for me to steal a car.
Uh-huh.
Okay, I'll hotwire the car.
You get to.
Do not leave without her, all right?
Leave it outside.
Okay.
Oh, uh, watch her flashing light!
Okay.
You know, I can hotwire the...
I think I'm gonna go right now.
All right, I'm sorry.
I'll go.
I'll go.
No, no, no, no.
Okay.
Come here.
Where is the dining?
Maren, thank you.
Got you back.
Get up.
Well, who's got yours?
Flashing lights.
Run!
Look into my eyes, watch and wonder why I
whisper words that weaken your will.
And sleep.
Not if it's slept.
I said, sleep.
Izzy does super play.
You kind of told us you were coming in a
police car, thank you very much.
And look, we made the fifth horsemen
reappear.
Hello, Lula.
Hi.
She's okay.
Hi.
Are you okay?
Yeah, no, I'm okay.
I'm okay.
But they have merit.
Yeah, I escaped.
He couldn't.
Yeah, yeah, very emotional time for
everybody.
You're clearly a lot going on the bench.
I'm really trying not to take any of this
personally, but please, can you tell me,
did the eye contact you directly?
Yeah.
You two?
Yes.
Well, why didn't you call me sooner?
I'm so sorry.
I had to find a babysitter.
Everything happened like that.
Wait, I'm sorry.
You two know each other?
Yeah, we know each other.
How many female magicians do you think
there are in the world?
I have the fact that there are three of us
in the room right now.
Shocking, shocking.
My blown.
I'm surprised the universe is unfolding in
on itself.
I'm going to drop it.
Does he just do that?
Mm-hmm.
Sorry, I'm a big fan of yours,
by the way.
I was trying to figure out where Veronica
was going to be next.
And apparently, Vanderburg Global has a
motorsports team.
They're introducing a new car this weekend
in Abu Dhabi.
So we can get Merit back and expose her.
No, no, no.
I am not exposing her.
I am not exposing anyone, okay?
I don't care what the eye wants.
No.
We are swapping this for Merit,
and then we are done.
We're saving our friend.
We're not saving the world.
And then what?
We just go back to our lives and let her
walk away.
After Russia, you said magicians are
entertainers, not superheroes,
and I'm starting to think that you were
right.
She doesn't just launder money like her
father.
You saw what happened at Thaddeus.
Obviously, I'm playing a bit of ketchup
here, right?
I don't have all of the information,
but I don't think that that should stop me
from having an opinion about what we do
next.
Of course it should.
Exactly.
No, it shouldn't, Atlas.
And I think we should expose Vanessa.
Veronica.
For murder.
And what is that?
For money laundering.
And for money laundering.
For murder and for money laundering.
You should tie her up.
No!
No, it is too dangerous.
And Atlas is right.
What?
We are done sacrificing ourselves.
I'm sorry, it's not worth it.
That's bullshit!
You're wrong.
Am I?
Sorry.
No, don't be sorry.
Say it.
You are.
You're wrong.
It's just...
Before I discovered the horseman,
I didn't give a shit about anything.
My family gave me up.
I hated the whole world.
And then, I saw a video
of you guys, and you
were trying to make
the world less corrupt.
Less terrible.
And that made me give a shit.
So what's the trick?
I promise this is gonna work.
But is that enough misdirection?
As long as she's here, I'm not there.
We can take care of that.
What if you're even just five minutes
late?
Five?
I'd say one.
One minute late.
How do we know enough people are gonna
show up?
You guys, it's already viral.
I guarantee they'll be a crowd.
This is nuts.
There's too many variables.
Hey, we'll be in constant contact with you
if something goes awry.
Hey, hey, there's like no margin for error
here, man.
Okay, zero.
We're going to have to be absolutely
flawless if we're gonna pull something
this risky off with this
many moving parts in
this ridiculously short
amount of time, okay?
Yes.
Yeah, but speaking for
myself at least, I think
the seven of us have a
better chance than most.
Oh.
Would you look at this?
When did the great Balskulleroy go soft?
Okay, guys, are we doing this or what?
It is a ten million to one shot.
Those are my kind of odds.
The time has come.
Tonight for one night only.
Coming close.
Closer.
Because the more you think you see,
the easier it'll be to fool you.
The countdown begins.
In only two hours, the
four horsemen will be on
stage together for the
first time in ten years.
J.
Daniel Atlas.
Penny Reeves.
Jack Wilder.
And Luma May.
Ladies and gentlemen, the four horsemen.
That's right.
The horsemen are back.
For one night only.
Now last week, we stole the hard diamond.
And tonight, in two hours time, we're
gonna return it to its rightful owner.
All of you.
Do you think that got her attention?
That didn't.
That'll know her well.
Listen, now that you know
how bad things can actually get,
can you please just try
playing it safe this one time?
No?
Okay.
Here she is, right on time.
You enjoying the show?
It's a little tacky for my taste.
I assume you chose your venue for its
proximity to my own.
Well, good news for you, I've placed you
on our guest list.
Bring me my heart.
We'll make an exchange.
Mr. McKinney for the diamond.
Outside, under the lights, and not the
first hint of magic.
One rabbit comes out of a hat,
one ace slides out of a sleeve,
and your friend goes...
Poof.
Just trying to use pollants, you'll
understand.
Welcome to the WYAS Island.
The Orlando of the Middle East.
Now, finally, thank you to YAS Island for
hosting an event worthy of the fastest
team in motorsport.
This track is elite, but
it will soon provide our
competitors with the most
common view in racing.
The rear wings of our cars.
Holy shit, that's Veronica?
She has a very commanding presence.
Our magical friends have arrived.
Why don't you go and greet them?
Thank you so much for coming.
I hope you enjoy the race.
Okay, Atlas said they created the
attraction.
Are we going to pull this off?
There is security everywhere.
Okay, you guys calm down.
I want this.
Hello, hi.
David, cool.
I'm from Meteor Relations.
I was just checking in.
Do you think you guys could do a different
camera placement?
Okay, thanks.
Continue.
Your turn.
Let's do this.
Make sure you confirm the authenticity of
the diamond.
These people are very tricky.
I'm so glad you came.
What did you say we bury the hatchets?
In each other's necks.
He's funny.
We each possess something beneficial to
the other.
Perfect reason to do business.
Only there's one caveat.
I fervently hope our mutual dealings are
at a close.
She's so poorly.
I know.
I hate her.
How's it going, man?
Well, can I help you?
Yeah, we're here to shoot the car.
Oh, right.
Of course.
Obviously.
There you are.
And you?
Ah, yeah.
It's my jacket somewhere.
There it is.
We're with Checkered Flags, the doc series
next season's on Vandenberg Motorsports.
It seems they didn't give you guys a heads
up.
Typical.
We're just gonna get
some inserts, maybe some
B-roll of some party people
gawking at this beauty.
All right, whenever you're ready.
All right, don't touch the car.
We gotta shoot the interior.
Yeah, I can actually get you a cameo in
this thing.
It's safe here.
I've got my orders.
Yeah, and so do we.
Good evening, Miss Vandenberg.
Yeah, we're trying to
get that footage you asked
for, but we ran into a
little bit of a problem.
You're gonna be in trouble.
She wants to talk to you.
It's not good, my guy.
Mm-mm.
Not good.
How's that?
Listen, my father always said no impostor
diamond starts at sea.
And at this very moment, my car is the
diamond.
So you can either let them do their job,
or you can find yourself a new one.
Sorry for the hold-up, ma'am.
You're good.
You're the best.
You can just back up for me really quick,
just for the light.
Thanks, ma'am.
Well, shall we get on with it?
Please.
Oh, of course you have a goon,
forgive me.
Ah, come on, you don't trust us,
after all we've been through?
Is there a problem?
Double check if you're not, sir.
It's the hub.
Yes, of course it is.
Now, please, can you get our friend?
Come on.
There he is.
Okay.
Hey.
Are you okay?
Well, now then, I know I'm worth half a
beat.
I don't think we got ripped off,
but it's good to see you.
Sounds sealed delivered.
See, I'm a woman of my word.
Stick around if you want.
Enjoy the party.
What in God's neck?
Come on, how do you make this thing go?
I can't concentrate with you yelling at
me.
Excuse me!
You joined the show?
You're just going to stand there walking
or get my car back?
You did this.
Okay, here we go.
Okay, Atlas, you wanted the distraction,
you got a distraction.
Man, this thing's tail hair.
You've trapped the door or something.
Is everybody okay?
Oh, no.
When I woke up this morning, there was only
one thing I wanted more than my diamond.
My horseman under lock and key.
And now that I have both, I must admit I'm
feeling a little bit spoiled.
While you were prepping your little
performance, I curated a trick of my own.
Five horsemen trapped, no escape.
You five may be national treasures,
but we have those here too.
Only they're hard to find because they're
buried in sand.
To the world, it will appear you died in a
failed escape act.
Now, let's see some magic.
Fuck magic, somebody call for backup.
Jack, I called you.
Got anyone out of service?
Oh, God, she must have scrambled the cell
signal.
She thought of everything.
Hula, whose side are you on?
I'm on our side, obviously, but she also
thought of everything.
Both things can be true at one time.
Sand is getting higher, sand is getting
bigger.
It's more sand and it's getting larger.
Hemley, Hemley, first principle of escape.
Uh, how long is it survivable?
Okay, great.
Judging from the rate of the flow,
the volume of the box...
Uh, yeah, we're screwed.
Oh, amazing.
Okay, how about the second principle of
escape then?
Okay, so that's the box itself.
It's your flaws, your weakness,
they're a back door.
Everybody just needs to check.
Seal, seal, seal, seal.
Everything's sealed.
Any chance there's a third principle?
I have what you're after.
Perfect.
I won't be sure where the heart resides.
I can hardly wait.
Straight to the vault.
No, no, no, no, no!
Yes!
Help me, Ricky Bobby!
Help me!
You're
just gonna die here, in this box,
really?
It's funny, a week ago, I wanted to die...
and then I get my reason to live back,
and now we're actually gonna die.
How is that funny?
Well, I mean, it's funnier in my head,
you know, it's peculiar funny.
No, no, no, no, we're out of options.
God, I never should have been that
horrible about your website and your
costumes, and the
logo is not embarrassing
that the eye in Wilder
is a little magic wand.
It's not, it's cute, and it's charming,
and I missed you.
Listen, I know, I don't
know we show it, but
I really do think the
world of all of you.
I cannot believe we're getting buried
alive.
I mean, it's like in Western.
Wait, wait, buried alive?
That's like an old magic tradition.
Sorry, who, who do we know who did that?
Bill Shurik nearly died doing that,
remember?
He got into a plexiglass coffin and had it
covered in sand.
But didn't the plexiglass break?
The sand got wet.
The sand got wet, I remember now.
It rained the night before.
It wet sand is heavier than dry,
it broke the glass.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
If we broke that pipe,
then it would wet the
sand and then it'll
break the box, right?
If I could wrap something around,
I might be able to get some leverage.
Mary, give me your bill, okay?
Okay, you got it, you got it.
Okay, okay, okay.
Good, good, good, good, good.
Drop this, drop this.
Come on.
Help me, help me, pull me down.
Okay, okay, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Okay, we'll break.
5.5 minutes, John, John here.
Sorry,
did I forget to use my blinker?
You're under arrest.
Thank you, gentlemen.
Excellent work.
We've had a red notice, one Bosco and
Leroy.
Thank you.
No problem.
Yep, Atlas is gonna kill me.
Water's coming in too fast.
And the glass won't break.
I'm gonna hold this for a dive.
You can use that now, nothing cuts the
glass like a diamond.
Wait, wait, wait.
Wait, Emily, Emily.
Yes, I can hold my breath for 8 minutes.
If anyone can get us out of this,
we can.
What's he doing here?
He's found a bug's diamond that you and
your friends don't.
You lost something?
No!
I
Hope we're not too late.
You alright?
You made it.
Do you have what I want?
If you have what I want.
Where's the evidence?
Right here.
I'm the evidence.
Johnny, I... I joined.
You did.
Now you see me.
It's quite fascinating.
The things people don't want you to make
something, or someone disappear.
I
Told you that trick.
Just like our father told you.
And now, after 15 years, you're trying to
ruin me?
No.
All 15 years.
I didn't know you'd be in that car.
But you must have been relieved to hear I
was.
When we hit the water, I couldn't unbuckle
my seatbelts.
Mom freed me with her dying breath.
I had nothing but fondness for you,
Charlie.
Let me finally treat you like a brother.
I am your brother.
Father's blood is in both of us.
Though he'd never acknowledge mine,
God knows where the big...
And the shame drove my mother to her
grave.
Then you sent mine to hers.
Fine.
You're right.
It should be yours.
Here.
Take it.
Bullet's catch.
Is this possible?
No.
Just magic.
He promised
to return the heart diamond to his
rightful owner.
The questions are in order.
First, let's say hello
to the fierce force
of nature, the
extraordinary June Bruclaire.
Wow, hello everyone.
Thank you.
The Lord!
The pleasure is ours.
We've
done any of this in the first place without
the help of the world's greatest magicians.
The four... sorry, make that five...
horsemen!
Well, dazzles, audiences
all over the world, but
we have never been
part of a trick like this.
And you may be asking yourself,
how did they pull this off?
Okay, well, every magician needs an
assistant, Veronica.
You may think Veronica
here, as Peter Vandenberg's
sole heir is the rightful
owner of this diamond.
But, here's the twist.
Peter didn't have one child, he had two.
That's right.
And that other child cheated death.
And landed in New York City.
Where vengeance became his life's work.
But he would need help.
So he recruited...
Enticed... and lured some of the
most brilliant minds he could assemble.
Laying the groundwork for a trick unlike
any other.
Which brings us to tonight.
Make some noise for the mastermind behind
all of us.
Our best friend.
A ghost.
Until this very moment.
Charlie Vandenberg!
I know I said I'd enjoy taking you down,
but this is more fun than I anticipated.
You are still a sad and pathetic man.
And you are nothing.
Oh, hold on everyone.
One second.
And you never will be.
What's that?
I don't understand how you pulled this
off.
You don't understand.
Veronica doesn't seem to understand how
she found herself in this position.
Well, let's explain it to her.
You see, the finest magic preys on
assumptions.
Yet the car waiting for you was the same
one that dropped you off.
Let's go.
That inactive mother nature is nothing
but...
And that a vault in the desert isn't just
smoke and mirrors.
That a gun isn't filled with blanks.
And that an elevator is just simply
descending into earth.
If you want to trick the master of deception,
you have to manipulate her reality.
And for our last trick, why don't we make
Veronica disappear?
The world is full of illusions.
One of the biggest is that this diamond
belongs to the Vandenbergs at all.
As my father's only unincarcerated
next of kin, I'll make sure
every one of our illicit buyers
faces legal repercussions.
And then, I'll gift all our assets,
including the heart, to the South African
communities they came from, with a few
extra dollars left for all of you.
Orson and Prowl's always leave with deeper
pockets.
Nice trick.
I learned from the best.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thank you for joining us.
All of us.
And please remember,
no matter what cards life
deals you, you have to
learn to make your own magic.
Ladies and gentlemen, we are the Horsemen!
Good night!
What do
you want, pomegranate or boysenberry?
Dude, I said I wanted a drink.
Let's give it a try.
Kids today.
Of course.
That's pretty good.
You want to try it now?
I think you dropped this.
Oh, an old card.
Just in case you want to frame it.
Thanks.
I might... You know, I still cannot
believe you're a vanderberg.
How the could she?
I was thinking I feel like we should start
our own group, you guys.
A girl's magic?
Yeah, yeah.
Yes.
Horse girls.
No.
Not that.
Horse women.
Not that.
Ladies of the horse.
Ponies.
Ponies.
Ponies really bad.
Can I talk to you real quick?
Not trying to infiltrate the horse women.
What?
What?
It's just... speak.
What is the matter with you?
It's hard because I don't... I don't know
how you feel.
Hey, everybody.
Everybody, come on over here, please.
Yeah?
Come on, guys.
Hey, can you grab some more of those
delicious things, Posca?
You are going to love this stuff.
It is slaps.
No, Merit, please.
It's slaps.
What I'm meant to say is it's good.
Yeah, right.
Yes, and I will be the one to say it.
I'm going to miss you guys.
I was just thinking the same thing.
Yeah, me too.
Dammit, I love you guys.
We love you too.
We love you.
You too.
Very sweet.
Even me, really?
You must be very drunk.
Go back to what... we all love each other.
Go back to that.
You guys expecting someone?
No one is supposed to know where we are.
Who is it from?
It doesn't say.
Open it.
You open it.
Okay.
Oh, that's the thing from the door.
Yeah, from the shelter.
Do you mind if I take another crack at it?
Yeah, yeah, go for it.
Yeah?
I think I can handle it this time.
Did you miss me?
Dylan.
Nobody is supposed to be imprisoned.
I know what you're thinking.
He lied to us.
But I didn't lie to you.
I just led you to believe something that
wasn't true.
But it was for your own good, trust me.
There's more to this mystery than you
realize.
And the end result is that the horsemen
are back together again.
It warms my heart.
Now for you, three imposters.
Raising me, pretending like you're part of
our top secret organization.
You think you're gonna get away with it?
With no consequences or repercussions?
Well...
You saw it right.
Welcome.
Welcome to the Eye.
I asked for the rest of you.
You thought your work was done.
Think again, team.
You're just getting started.
What was the trick?
