00:02 - Good evening, how are you?
00:04 - I'm good, how are you?
00:06 - Are you super nervous?
00:07 - A little, but excited nervous.
00:09 I really care about this.
00:10 - And who are you? What is your name?
00:12 - My name is Anna de Guzman.
00:14 - And what do you do, Anna?
00:16 - I do magic.
00:17 - Magic?
00:18 (Applaudissements)
00:20 - How is it that there's not many women
00:22 that are magicians, that like to do magic?
00:25 - I know, I'm one of the few,
00:26 and I hope to inspire more girls tonight.
00:28 - OK, respect.
00:30 - I'll be like her when I grow up.
00:31 - How long you been doing this?
00:33 - I've been doing it for around like five or six years,
00:36 but I feel like my whole life,
00:37 magical things happen all the time.
00:39 - And how old are you?
00:40 - I'm 24 now.
00:41 - You're a baby.
00:42 - Oh, thank you.
00:44 - And Simon can't talk tonight,
00:45 but I'm sure he's gonna want to ask you
00:47 if you have any pets.
00:48 - I've never had a pet because I moved around a lot,
00:50 but hopefully if I win, I would love to get a dog
00:53 that I want to put in the act.
00:55 - Oh, fantastic.
00:57 OK, we're ready for you,
00:58 and we're so excited that you came tonight to AGT.
01:01 - Thank you for having me.
01:03 Let's go.
01:04 OK.
01:05 Judges, may I join you up at your desk?
01:10 - Of course.
01:12 [cheers and applause]
01:17 - My biggest fear is falling down those stairs.
01:22 Hi.
01:23 I have a gift for this cutie right here.
01:26 Sophia, could you hold on to that for me?
01:29 [laughter]
01:32 Put it away. Put it away anywhere safe.
01:34 - Near your seat?
01:35 - Yeah, somewhere I can get to it.
01:36 Yeah, right there. I will never touch it, I promise.
01:38 Now, growing up as an only child with a single mother,
01:41 I spent a lot of time alone learning
01:43 how to entertain myself.
01:45 When I found my first deck of cards...
01:48 [audience groans]
01:51 I was instantly captivated by the magic
01:54 they seemed to possess.
01:55 I became obsessed with this thing called cardistry.
01:58 [gasps]
02:00 It's the manipulation of playing cards.
02:04 - Whoa!
02:05 - What the heck?
02:07 [cheers and applause]
02:09 - Simon, can you shuffle these cards as good as I do?
02:13 [laughter]
02:14 Don't worry, I didn't expect you to, but do your best.
02:17 [laughter]
02:19 Now, I know you've seen a ton of great magic
02:21 here on this stage before,
02:23 so I wanted to create something special just for America
02:26 where I don't even touch the cards.
02:28 But before I do that,
02:30 Simon, I'll take these back.
02:33 Good. One more?
02:35 [laughter]
02:37 - Ta-da!
02:38 - Oh, fancy.
02:40 Howie, I'm gonna riffle through the side of the cards.
02:43 Just say "stop" whenever it feels right to you.
02:45 - Stop.
02:46 - Lock the card in your brain.
02:48 - Okay. - Memorize it.
02:49 - I got it.
02:50 [soft music]
02:52 - Now, the reason I had you shuffle, Simon,
02:54 is because a lot of people think my shuffling is suspicious,
02:57 even though I think it's pretty fair.
02:59 You can actually see each card one by one.

03:34 - The two of spades!
03:37 - Yes! - What?
03:39 [cheers and applause]
03:40 - That's incredible!
03:42 - Wait, Heidi? - Yes?
03:44 - I want you to think of a number between 1 and 52.
03:48 You can say the number out loud. - Ten.
03:50 - Ten.
03:52 [laughter]
03:53 - Sophia, you've been holding onto these cards
03:55 before we even started.
03:57 - I have. They have a plastic on them.
04:00 [laughter]
04:03 - Go ahead and take the cards carefully out of the box.
04:06 Sophia, Heidi was thinking of the number ten.
04:09 Deal down ten cards for us.
04:12 One, face up.
04:14 Two, and we'll all count together.
04:15 - No, just like a--

04:57 - There's nothing more exciting
04:58 when the magician amazes themselves.
05:01 [laughter]
05:02 - Well, hopefully I amazed all of you as well.
05:06 - Can I just say something?
05:08 You are real.
05:09 The fact that you were so nervous and not slick
05:12 added to what we were doing,
05:14 it was the most adorable, fun, magical thing
05:17 I have seen so far this season.
05:20 [cheers and applause]
05:21 - Heidi, what did you think?
05:23 - I agree with Howie.
05:24 You're totally a breath of fresh air.
05:26 And you showed us some magic that I have not seen before.
05:30 - And apparently, either is she.
05:32 - And you have a million-dollar smile on that face.
05:35 - Thanks.

10:54 - Well done.
10:55 - At the beginning, you were actually a bit annoying,
10:58 actually, but the act itself, I loved it.
11:03 It was different.
11:05 It's magic.
11:06 Brilliant.
11:07 I mean, surely your dream is to have your own Vegas show.
11:12 - Absolutely.
11:13 I want to create something
11:14 that no one has ever seen before.
11:17 - We should vote now.
11:19 Okay? My vote is a yes.
11:22 Heidi.
11:23 - It's a yes from me.
11:25 - Yes. - Yes.
11:26 - And Simon, you're a magician.

11:46 - Good evening.
11:48 - Hello. - Hello.
11:49 - Who are you, beautiful girl?
11:51 - I'm Mandy, Mandy Mewden.
11:54 I'm from London in the United Kingdom.
11:57 - How old are you?
11:59 - I'm 29.
12:00 - Ah.
12:02 - It's been a rough couple of years,
12:04 do you know what I mean?
12:05 [laughter]
12:07 - And what do you do, Mandy?
12:10 - I do magic.
12:13 - Why AGT? Now?
12:15 - Well, being British, as Simon will back me up to say,
12:18 I love America.
12:20 [cheers and applause]
12:22 Also, I owe money and I had to get out of the UK.
12:24 [laughter]
12:27 - What are you gonna do with a million dollars if you win?
12:29 - Well, I do--I'd probably spend it on men.
12:31 - On men?
12:34 Okay, we're ready for you.
12:35 We want to see your magic.
12:37 - Okay, fantastic.
12:39 [cheers and applause]
12:41 - Right, everybody, are you ready to get into a magic mood?
12:44 [cheers and applause]
12:47 Okay, America's Got Talent.
12:50 Look at this.
12:51 Four strangers ready to judge me.
12:53 It's like one of those parties
12:54 where you throw the car keys into the fishbowl.
12:57 [laughter]
12:59 Heidi, would you just--
13:01 I've got a bag here full of letters.
13:04 Could you just reach in and get a few out
13:06 just to make sure that they're all different?
13:08 It's very difficult with the gloves on, isn't it,
13:10 if you just committed a crime and hoping to get away with it.
13:13 [laughter]
13:14 - They all look different.
13:15 - Lovely. Shove that back.
13:16 I'll give the bag a bit of a shake.
13:18 Hi, Howie. - Hi.
13:19 - I want you just to take a letter.
13:22 - One? - Don't look at it.
13:23 - Okay. - Okay, fantastic.
13:25 Could you take one as well?
13:27 - Take it out? - Yes, please.
13:28 And don't look at it. We'll come back to that later.
13:31 Okay, Sophia, could you do the same?
13:35 Okay, fantastic.
13:37 Now, Simon, I'm gonna riffle through my book.
13:40 Could you just stick anything in you like?
13:43 [laughter]
13:47 - Finger?
13:48 - Yes, a finger would be lovely, Simon.
13:50 - Okay.
13:52 - Okay, brilliant.
13:54 Now, Simon, could you look at the page number?
13:57 - Yes.
13:58 - And the first word on the page, Simon.
14:00 - Got it.
14:01 - Okay, and could you write them down and remember them?
14:03 - Yes, I can. - Okay, fantastic.
14:05 I'm just gonna pop back up to the stage.
14:07 Feel free to check me out, Simon.
14:09 Okay.
14:10 [laughter]
14:13 Right, here we go.
14:14 Now, Howie, I want you to think of any word at all
14:18 in the English language.
14:20 - Okay.
14:21 - Now, would you be impressed
14:22 if the word you were thinking of
14:24 was written on a piece of paper in the bag in front of you?
14:28 - Yes, more than impressed.
14:30 - Please open the bag.
14:32 [dramatic music]
14:35 - It's a dictionary.
14:38 - Unbelievable.
14:40 Heidi and Sophia, open your packages.
14:43 Okay, Heidi, what lovely love story do you have, Heidi?
14:47 - Mine says "Fifty Shades of Grey."
14:49 - Oh!
14:50 Now, Simon, what page were you on?
14:53 - 70.
14:54 - Okay, Heidi, could you turn to page 70?
14:57 I'm just gonna go into a trance and read your mind.
15:00 Here we go.
15:01 [laughter]
15:03 Page 70.
15:06 Does your word begin with an "F"?
15:09 - Yes.
15:10 - Right, lovely.
15:11 Now, are you familiar with this word?
15:13 - Yes, I'm familiar with the word.
15:15 - Okay.
15:16 - Oh, my God!
15:17 - Now, the spirits are telling me
15:19 that this word ends in "I-N-G."
15:23 Okay.
15:24 Have you done this word today?
15:27 [laughter]
15:30 - Yes.
15:31 - That's my girl! Fantastic!
15:35 Is your word, by any chance, is it "fantasizing"?
15:41 - Yes, it is!
15:43 [cheers and applause]
15:46 - Okay, now, Sophia, could you go to 17?
15:49 Could you look at the last word on page 17, Sophia?
15:52 - Wait, I don't have my glasses.
15:54 17.
15:55 - Okay, Howard, you've got a dictionary there.
15:58 - Yes.
15:59 - Could you go to page 330?
16:01 - Okay.
16:02 - And could you go down seven word entries?
16:04 - Seven words.
16:05 One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.
16:09 - What's the word?
16:10 - "Loonie."
16:11 - No!
16:13 It's "loonie."
16:15 [cheers and applause]
16:17 - Now, Simon, you were thinking of a word.
16:19 You wrote it down.
16:20 What was your word?
16:22 - "Eat."
16:23 - "Eat."
16:24 Howard, you picked a letter.
16:25 - Yes, I did.
16:26 - Could you hold your letter up and shout it out?
16:28 - It's an "E."
16:29 - An "E."
16:30 What do you have there, Heidi?
16:32 - I have an "A."
16:33 - And what do you have, Sophia?
16:35 - A "T."
16:36 - Unbelievable!
16:37 [cheers and applause]
16:40 Thank you so much!

29:17 - How long you been doing that?
29:19 - Since I was two, so eight years.
29:21 - Wow. - At two?
29:23 - So I was born with magical powers,
29:27 and my dad is a magician,
29:29 and he's a magician, and he's a magician.
29:31 And he gave me some of the magical powers
29:33 that he didn't need anymore.
29:34 - Wow. - Wow.
29:36 - Okay, and what about the million dollars?
29:38 If you get it, what would you do with that?

29:48 - Okay, let's see what you've got tonight.
29:51 [cheers and applause]
29:54 - Thank you.
30:00 - Tonight, I would like you to help me
30:02 create a brand-new magic word.
30:04 - A magic word?
30:06 - But first, I have gifts.
30:08 You see, I love drawing and coloring again,
30:10 and I've drawn you each a picture to look at later.
30:13 This one's for you, Howie.
30:15 - All right. - This one's for you, Heidi.
30:17 - Thank you. - This one's for you, Sophia.
30:18 - Thank you. - And this one's for you, Simon.
30:20 Now, don't peek inside the envelopes.
30:22 Don't let anyone else touch them.
30:24 We'll get back to them later.
30:28 - What you're about to see is amazing,
30:30 but I can't do it on my own. I need help.
30:32 Luckily, I have lots of friends that love magic just like me.
30:35 - Oh, hello there.
30:38 Hi, friends. - We've got a lot of friends.
30:40 - Wow.
30:41 - I'll let each of you to pick one of my friends,
30:43 pick one of the numbers, and I'll place it in this holder.
30:46 You get to choose which position it goes in.
30:48 There are multiple combinations, and the choices are all yours.
30:51 We'll start with you, Howie. Please name one of my friends.
30:55 - Me? Uh, okay, uh, Mark.
30:59 - And would you like the number 7 or 23?
31:01 - I'll take 7. It's lucky.
31:03 - And where would you like it to go?
31:05 1, 2, 3, or 4?
31:06 - First, 'cause I'm first.
31:08 - Okay, so number 1. Heidi, it's your turn.
31:11 - I choose "um."
31:13 - Would you like 11 or 26? - 11.
31:15 - And where would you like that to go?
31:17 2, 3, or 4? - 4.
31:20 - Thank you, Heidi. Sophia, it's your turn.
31:22 Which of my friends would you like?
31:24 - Skyler.
31:26 - And would you like 24 or 10?
31:28 - 10.
31:30 - And where would you like it to go? 2 or 3?
31:32 - 2.
31:34 - Thank you, Sophia. And Simon, which of my friends would you like?
31:37 - Jordan. - Jordan.
31:39 And would you like 1 or 15? - 1.
31:42 - And we'll try something a little bit different with you.
31:44 Would you like to put it in the last position
31:46 or swap it out for another one?
31:48 - Okay. - He's taking my position.
31:51 - Okay.
31:54 - Thanks, Simon.
31:56 Now, let's look at the drawings you didn't use.
32:00 As you can see, they're all different.
32:02 We've got things like Lego, dragons.
32:05 We've got burgers. So they're all different, yeah?
32:07 - Yes. - Let's look at the drawings you did choose.
32:10 You chose a snake...
32:13 a slice of lime...
32:16 a house...
32:20 and some mountains.
32:24 Each of you had a free choice of which drawing you wanted
32:27 and, more importantly, where to put it.
32:30 The snake looks like an S.
32:32 The lime looks like a C.
32:34 The house looks like an A.
32:36 And the mountains look like an M.
32:38 That's why it's the word "scam." Right? - Right.
32:41 - I said earlier we were gonna create a brand-new magic word.
32:44 That can be our magic word.
32:46 (laughter)
32:48 Everyone shout "scam" as loud as they can on the count of three.
32:51 One, two, three...
32:53 - Scam!
32:55 (laughter)
32:57 - But what if I told you that we knew what the magic word would be
33:00 before we even picked it?
33:02 At the beginning of my act, I gave you each a drawing to hold on to.
33:06 I'd like to take the drawing out of the envelope and show it to everyone.
33:10 (dramatic music)
33:16 (soupir)

33:40 (applaudissements)
33:44 (applaudissements)
33:48 (applaudissements)
34:16 - Wow!
34:18 - It says "scam" everywhere.
34:20 - Look, "scam," "scam," "scam," "scam," "scam," "scam."
34:23 Sorry, Simon.
34:25 (applaudissements)
34:27 - Woah!
34:29 (applaudissements)
34:31 - Woo!
34:35 - Hello. Hello. What's your name?
34:40 - Magic Mike Jacobson.
34:42 - Magic Mike Jacobson.
34:44 - So you're going to be doing magic.
34:46 - That's right.
34:48 - Well, what a coincidence to have that name and to be doing what you do.
34:51 - Pretty convenient.
34:52 - Yeah.
34:53 - The movie was loosely based on my life.
34:55 - Okay.
34:56 (laughter)
34:57 - How long have you been doing magic?
34:59 - I, like, did magic everywhere I could,
35:01 from, like, my home to barber shops and everywhere in between,
35:04 and eventually kind of just, like, rose and rose and rose,
35:07 and I love to keep doing it, you know?
35:09 So it's perfect.
35:10 - Okay. And how old are you?
35:12 - 36.
35:13 - 36. And where are you from?
35:15 - L.A.
35:16 - And how do you make a living? Do you make a living doing magic?
35:19 - Uh, no. Uh, not yet.
35:21 I work in advertising by day,
35:23 but this performance will determine whether I can quit.
35:26 - Oh.
35:27 (applaudissements)
35:28 - So we'll see what happens.
35:30 - No pressure.
35:31 - Yeah, no big deal.
35:32 But actually a huge deal for me.
35:34 - Well, let's see what you do. Are you nervous?
35:36 - Exactly. Let's see.
35:37 - Yeah, I'm a little nervous. I'm also just excited to be here.
35:40 - Well, wish you the best of luck, buddy.
35:42 - Thank you.
35:43 - Go ahead.
35:44 (applaudissements)
35:46 - I'm going to share something with you all tonight
35:48 that every magician has,
35:50 but no magician will show you for some reason.
35:53 It's this.
35:54 It's an invisible deck of cards.
35:56 Uh, it's a bit hard to see in this light.
35:59 Um...
36:00 So what I'm going to do is I'm going to burn the invisible deck
36:07 from 52 all the way down to one.
36:10 At the end, Simon, you're going to be a hero,
36:12 as you always are in my heart.
36:14 You're going to save one of the remaining cards from burning,
36:17 but it depends on what Heidi and Sophia decide.
36:20 Heidi, take that match.
36:22 I want you to strike it and stare into the flame.
36:25 Let's just say there's two groups--
36:30 number cards and face cards.
36:32 We need to decide whether you want to start
36:34 to burn all the numbers or all the faces.
36:38 Blowout it out when you're ready.
36:40 - Am I telling you? - Yes, please.
36:43 - All the faces.
36:45 - The faces are now in the fire.
36:47 You can pass the box over to Sophia.
36:49 Sophia, take your match.
36:51 Okay?
36:53 Left in the fire, we've got jacks, queens, kings.
36:56 Okay, the only way to divide those up would be--
36:58 yeah, men and women.
37:00 I want you to burn that match.
37:02 And tell us, do you want to burn all the men,
37:07 or do you want to burn all the women to a crisp?
37:09 - All the men.
37:11 - That was a very quick decision.
37:13 You go ahead, you blow it out.
37:15 And you can pass that to Simon.
37:17 You're going to save one of the remaining cards from burning.
37:20 All we have left are the four queens.
37:22 Queen of hearts, queen of spades, queen of clubs, queen of diamonds.
37:26 We're going to light that match.
37:28 And whenever you're ready, blow it out.
37:31 I want you to draw with that match
37:35 the suit of the queen that you want to save.
37:37 Hearts, spades, clubs, or diamonds.
37:39 Is that a diamond?
37:48 Here's the thing. Are you sure?
37:50 Simon, have you shaked the matchbox?
37:53 Do you hear something in there?
37:55 Open that up for us.
37:59 Because in all of your hands the entire time,
38:01 there's been nothing but
38:03 one card
38:05 sitting inside there
38:07 protected by a paper clip.
38:09 I want you to make sure.
38:11 Singed, like it's been in a bit of a fire.
38:13 You guys could have saved whatever you wanted to,
38:15 but you and you and you
38:17 decided together
38:19 to save the queen of diamonds.
38:21 Thank you. Thank you very much.
38:25 Thank you.
38:29 - No!
38:30 - I appreciate that very much.
38:32 But this is America's Got Talent.
38:34 I'm here to take this to the next level.
38:36 And so, Howie, I don't know if you noticed,
38:38 but there's an invisible deck of cards
38:40 right next to your cup.
38:42 Howie, if you would, I want you to just
38:44 shuffle the deck for me, please.
38:46 You might want to take it out of the box first.
38:49 - Thank you. - Stupid me.
38:53 - Great. And now feel free to show off
38:55 all your shuffling skills. Just make sure it's really mixed.
38:57 Oh, my God.
38:59 - Oh, wow. - That was very impressive.
39:01 - Howie, you're cool.
39:03 - Now, Howie, what I want you to do
39:05 is just fan out the deck to yourself
39:07 and pick out any card you want.
39:09 Don't show me, but remember it. Make sure everyone can see it.
39:11 Great.
39:13 Howie, if there's an invisible Sharpie right next to your cup,
39:15 sign the back of the card for me
39:17 just with your first name. - Okay.
39:19 - Great. I don't want to see it.
39:23 And now
39:25 take the card, slide it right back in,
39:27 put that all back in the box,
39:29 and then throw it right back up to me whenever you're ready.
39:31 Perfect.
39:33 Now, you...
39:35 Just minor miracles. It's fine.
39:37 Howie, you shuffled the deck.
39:39 - Yes. - You picked a card. You all saw it.
39:41 For the very first time,
39:43 what's the card that you picked?
39:45 - Ten of clubs. - I want to clarify something.
39:47 You and I have never met, correct? - Never.
39:49 - Nobody came up to you before the show, said anything?
39:51 - No. - For the very first time,
39:53 I'm going to open this up. You said the ten of clubs, correct?
39:55 - I did. - Because every single card in here
39:57 is face up,
39:59 except for one.
40:01 - Uh-oh.
40:07 - One card with a signature on it.
40:09 Howie, can you confirm, is that your signature?
40:11 - It is.
