I did it with the table knife, Rhoda.
And I used the knife to learn what the card was.
Well, look, Rhoda, take the pack and hold it face down.
Now insert the knife somewhere in the pack, but do it at the left corner, at the end of the pack that is toward you.
Yes, but wait a moment.
Tip the pack a trifle to the right and tilt the knife a little to the left.
Now hold it.
You can't see the face of the card, can you?
But take a look at the knife blade, Rhoda.
Tell me what you see there.
And it looks like the Ace of Clubs, doesn't it?
Well, there's the answer, Rhoda.
That's how you name the card that somebody's going to take.
Only remember, Rhoda, use a table knife that has a shiny blade, so it will really reflect the card.
Hey, that's a great trick, Blackstone.
Well, you asked for it, Don, so I did it.
Ask me another next time.
I hope, ladies and gentlemen, you like that trick.
And until next time, this is Blackstone saying good magic and goodbye.
