Now, he is asking a volunteer to pick a card from the deck. The volunteer has chosen the Queen of Hearts. Remember, everyone, it’s the Queen of Hearts.
Magician: (Continuing the trick) Now, watch closely. I will make the Queen of Hearts vanish into thin air.
Assistant: (Narrating) The Magician is holding the Queen of Hearts in his hand. He is waving his other hand over the card, reciting a magical incantation. Abracadabra! And just like that, the Queen of Hearts has disappeared! It’s gone!
