「全てのマジックには3つの要素がある。最初の要素は確認。マジシャンは観客に普通の状態―何も種がないことを見せる。次の要素は展開。普通であったものが突然何かに変わってしまったことを示す。だが消えただけではだめだ。戻ってこなければ。君は秘密を探り当てようとするだろう。だが見つからない。君は本当は秘密なんか探していない。騙されたいだけなんだ。Every magic trick consists of three parts, or acts. The first part is called the pledge, the magician shows you something ordinary. The second act is called the turn, the magician takes the ordinary something and makes it into something extraordinary. But you wouldn't clap yet, because making something disappear isn't enough. You have to bring it BACK. Now you're looking for the secret. But you won't find it because of course, you're not really looking. You don't really want to work it out. You want to be fooled. 」
