Now You See Me Page #3

JACK:
Guys, what's happening?

Whoa.

Look at that.

Whoa.

JACK:
It's gas!

MERRITT:
Relax. Just dry ice.

Cool.

Wait. What do you think this is all about?

Hang on. Hang on.

(MOANS)

I got nothin'.

Okay. Thank you. Thank you for the delay.

I'm just trying to create

the space for wisdom.

Okay, so you're like Buddha,

if he wasn't so enlightened.

And you're like Jesus,

if he was arrogant

and all of his miracles were fake.

Okay, lovebirds, get a room.

Danny, be honest. Did you do this?

No. Wait, did you?

I wish.

Why didn't anyone ask me if I did it?

Oh, great.

JACK:
Electricity is out.

Well, let's check.

Whoa.

(HENLEY LAUGHS)

HENLEY:
Blueprints.

DANIEL:
They're incredible.

JACK:
Who do you think did this?

I don't know, but I

really want to meet them.

It's a show.

Wow.

ANNOUNCER:
Merritt McKinney,

Daniel Atlas,

Henley Reeves,

Jack Wilder.

Arthur Tress/er and the MGM Grand

proudly presents

The Four Horsemen.

(AUDIENCE CHEERING)

MERRITT:
Thank you.

Tonight we would like to try something

that will, well, set us a bit apart.

For our final trick,

we're gonna do something never before

seen on a Las Vegas stage.

Or any stage for that matter.

Ladies and gentlemen,

tonight

we are going to rob a bank.

(AUDIENCE CHEERING LOUDLY)

That's a lot of excitement for a crime.

HENLEY:
I'm getting excited.

What about you, people?

(CHEERING INTENSIFIES)

BOTH:
One, two, three!

Sorry, sir. There's absolutely no recording

allowed during the performance.

Oh, yeah, yeah, sure, of course.

(BEEPS)

- Let me just put this away.

Actually, I need to take that.

After the show, I can come

and give it back to you.

Okay.

(CHUCKLING)

DANIEL:
Okay, okay.

Now, please, please, settle down.

Now who here has a bank

they would like us to rob?

That's a lot of people with a vendetta.

So we'll choose one at random then.

(CLAMORING)

My associates will make sure

it's random. Right?

Thank you, Merritt.

We are looking at row number 5.

Where is that?

And Henley, could I please

have a random seat number?

Oh. Lucky number 13.

- B-5-13. Where are you?

(AUDIENCE APPLAUDING)

Sir, please, stand up.

Ah, there you are. Hi.

Could you just confirm for me that this

is, in fact, your seat? B-5-13.

Yes.

Okay. Wonderful.

Now, could you please tell us

your name and the name of your bank?

Well, my name is Etienne Forcier.

And my bank, it's Credit

Republicain de Paris.

French. Okay. Uh...

We were hoping for something

a little more local,

a kind of mom-and-pop

credit union with no security.

But that's fine. A promise is a promise.

Could you please come up to the stage

- and we'll rob your bank.

(CHEERING)

And while he does that...
