The man behind their vanishing act is none other than Walter Mabry, a tech prodigy who threatens the Horsemen into pulling off their most impossible heist yet.

and in about five minutes,

some people are going...

- It's all in the wrist.

- Uh-huh.

Let the momentum

of the card do the work for you.

Mmm-hmm.

This last one I call the Stall.

Not bad.

Now you want to see

a thing of beauty?

- I do indeed.

- Here you go.

And bingo bango bongo.

That's good. No, no, no,

it's good to be positive

despite making zero

progress in a year.

Yeah.

Whereas when it

comes to hypnotism,

the student has almost

become the master.

I like your confidence, but you might

say that you have the better teacher.

- Ooh!

- Yeah.

You're right.

You're right.

Your teacher definitely doesn't

know what he's doing.

By the way, was this

your card yesterday?

- In fact it was.

- I thought so.

That's not bad.

If I can hypnotize Danny

before you hit him with a card,

I get top bunk for a week.

Okay, that's a deal.

- Danny, what's up, man?

- Hey.

Stare at the palm of your hand

and as your eyes change focus,

you will begin to notice...

Everything, because

I'm not hypnotized.

It's not working.

Please don't become him.

I didn't know you guys did party tricks

when there weren't floozies around

to impress.

Uh, I think we stopped

trying to impress floozies

in, like, 1937.

Okay, somebody broke into my apartment,

all right?

Some amateur who knew

everything about me,

everything about Henley leaving,

and everything about us.

- That's her.

- Hey!

- Hi.

- You met Lula.

I've met her.

What is she doing here?

I'm the new Horseman!

I'm the girl Horseman.

Whoo!

Yeah!

Nobody. No excitement.

Jack? Anything?

Dylan, tell me

what's going on here.

Well, Lula's been on the underground

scene for the last decade,

and I think she

has some real talent,

and I'd like to try her on stage

- to balance out the duo.

- What?

No, are you serious, man?

After Henley left, you said I could

get back on stage again.

Not someone who just showed up.

I told you I'd think about it,

and I have,

and I really need you behind the scenes

with me for a little while longer.

Dylan, come on. I've been

behind the scenes my whole life.

Which is a crime, might I add.

Have you seen that man's face?

Much as I appreciate the addition

of some femininity to the group,

over and above what Atlas provides,

I think the real issue

is we've been in this...

Yeah, the issue is that

we have been rehearsing for months

for something...

We don't even know what it is.

And you're going to

keep working until...

Until we work as a single organism.

I know, I've heard you say that.

The thing is, when you say that,

I think what you're

referring to is us, not you.

Listen, I'm getting my orders

directly from the Eye.
