I love this place.

- Yeah, me too.

- So strange, though.

- Why is it called a river?

- That's, what it is.

- Thank you.

- It's dried up, you know.

I actually used to come here

a lot when I was a kid.

- Yeah?

- Yeah.

- I used to ride my bike.

- It's our new spot.

What? You're gonna steal

my childhood memories?

No. We'll just make new ones.

- Promise?

- Promise.

- Give me that thing.

- Up-bup-bup! My camera, my show.

Besides, you're prettier than I am.

No fair.

- Don't show my face.

- Shut up.

Don't show my face.

Alright, give me that.

- No.

- I'm serious, little missy.

You mess with the bull,

you get the horns.

Don't cry.

God!

I love it when you record me.

No, really, I do.

It means that you love me.

What colour nail polish is that?

Since when do you care about...?

Goddammit, Kev.

You know when to turn that thing off!

Sh*t.

Get out here now.

Thought I told you not to leave

your girlfriend's damn

bike in the damn driveway!

- Little slut!

- Slut?

It's what it is.

But it's right up or

it's out of commission.

Kevin.

Why are you so fascinated

with this thing?

Don't keep me at arm's length, Kev.

I'm much more fun in the flesh.

And that's all you get.

- Let go!

- ...and get a job!

F*** you, Grandma!

- What the f***?

- Oh, God!

Breaking news at 10:30...

near downtown Los Angeles,

a police pursuit.

- You see that van there...

- Kev!

- Holy sh*t. That's...

- Kev.

- That's down the block.

- Aren't you gonna talk about it?

Yeah, let's talk about how

awesome this f***ing chase is!

Look at this!

Look. It's just down the street.

Kev, put that thing down

and face what's going on.

What's going on?

It's a crazy-ass chase,

headed right for us.

What do you think's gonna happen?

You think that sh*t's gonna go viral?

You're gonna become famous?

I got... I have to go shoot this.

It's sick, Kev. Put that thing down.

Come on, babe, this...

This is my chance.

Haven't you ever wanted to be a

part of something bigger than you?

Holy sh*t! Oh, my God.

It's here, it's here, it's here.

You made me miss it. F***!

- F***, f***!

- Kev!

- Oh, my God, it's here.

- Come back!

Sh*t, sh*t, sh*t! It's right here!

Jesus Christ, Grandma!

- You little pervert!

- Move! Move! Sh*t.

You're gonna make me

f***ing miss it. Sh*t, sh*t.

F***! F***! I missed it.

Get back inside! It's not safe

out here. Are you filming me?

I'm on my property, man.

I'm on my own property right now.

Seriously!

Starting to see quite a

few pedestrians now...

...in the age of Twitter and YouTube,

people can track this sort of thing

and try to get in on the action,

get their special shots of

the driver or the action.

This guy is travelling at

such a high rate of speed

through these residential

neighbourhoods.

Definitely don't wanna be out

there making yourself a target.

Thank you, honey. You made me miss it.

Iris, what the hell? I'm sorry.

- Get back inside!

- What the hell?

I'll tase your ass if you don't

get inside right now, goddamn.

Iris, get out of the street.

I told you to get off the

street and turn that thing off!

Holy sh*t! Oh, my God! Iri... Iris!

Just come in and have a seat.

I'm Detective Hughes.

I'm gonna have to record

this conversation, OK?

- OK.

- Tell me your full name.

My name is Scarlett Kay.

And what is your occupation, Miss Kay?

I'm a magician's assistant

for Dante the Great.

The tape that you brought in to us,

where did you find that tape?

In his dressing-room,

there's a secret compartment

behind the breaker box.

Dante recorded everything.

He always needed an audience.

Hello, ladies and gentlemen.

Thank you so much for coming

out to the show tonight.

The magician known as Dante the Great

was arrested today.

So just two years ago,

Dante the Great was John McMullen,

and he was living in a

trailer park in Atlanta

barely making ends meet,

couldn't pay the rent.

He would do tricks for his

friends in the neighbourhood,

and he was real good at it.

Cut the cards. Alright. Alright.

- Yeah, that's the blue...

- Pretend like you didn't see.

Figured out the trick!

Why don't you make some

beer appear? Be useful.

You suck, bro.

You guys are real funny for a bunch

of unemployed motherfuckers.

Dante came in possession of a cloak.

Nobody's really sure

where he got the cloak.

So the rumours are that

Harry Houdini himself

once owned this cloak.

And it frightened Houdini,

so he got rid of it.

Whoo! Whoo!

Well, there's no doubt that the

cloak changed Dante's life forever.

His shows were completely exclusive.

Passwords, knocking on doors.

You gotta know somebody

to even get a ticket.

That was the most amazing

show I've ever seen.

He picked my pocket.

From mid-balcony, he picked

my pocket, from the stage.

I don't know how he did it.

We went into the show

at 7 o'clock in New York.

- We walk out of the doors...

- We're in L.A.

We're in L.A. I...

I'm kind of f***ing pissed,

but I'm kind of like,

this is the most amazing

thing I've ever seen.

His illusions were on a different

level than anyone else.

Today's magic is dead.

You wanna learn a trick,

go Google it, go find it.

It's on Wikipedia.

You will never discover how I do it.

Hewwo, wabbit.

Sa!

Firefighters arrived on the scene to

see heavy flames on the east side.

Not a lot of wind this afternoon,

so they're hoping to keep this
