Any card.
Oh, come on, Tim.
That trick is so old.
Come on.
Just pick a card.
I need you to pick a card.
What you need is some new tricks, like Amazo.
Yeah.
But they're so expensive.
If you had some of his tricks, you could be The Great Timothini.
Hey, Mr.
Malik.
Hey, what's new, Magoo? This stuff by Amazo it's so cool.
Yeah.
He was just in here himself this morning.
Ah, man! Hey, what's this do? Hey, get in.
I'll show you.
I saw Amazo do it on TV last week.
H-Hey! Don't touch that, okay? You can't just walk up to an illusion and start playing around.
- You gotta practice.
- Well, I was just gonna show Foz.
I've got something to show you.
Come on over here.
- Hey, is that a - Guillotine.
That's right Ooh.
You see, about 200 years ago in France, this was the equivalent to the electric chair.
See, they would take your head head put your head in here like so, and then Yeah.
Now, what do you think of that? Care for a banana? Cool! Tell you what.
You can help me.
Here's what we're gonna do.
Now, I just can't quite reach with my hand, so if you could just move that lever over there, that'll lock the blade in place.
- No, not that one! Oh! My arm! Mr.
Malik Mr.
Malik, I'm so sorry! I didn't mean to! I just pushed the lever like you told me to! Hurry! Hurry! I didn't What am I gonna do? What am I gonna do? What am I gonna do? This hand is still attached.
How do you like that? Good trick? Wow! It's the best.
How much is it? - 250.
- Two-fifty? Really? I'll never be able to afford any good tricks.
Well, there's something maybe you can afford right behind the ear.
Two free tickets.
To Amazo's performance tonight.
Thanks! My pleasure.
You enjoy yourself, boys.
Not me.
It doesn't start till 10:00.
On a school night? My mom would never let me go! Neither will yours.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Amazo is the greatest magician alive.
You'll have to be the greatest magician alive to get out of the house.
Where are you going? - I'm going out to the garage to practice a new trick.
- Oh, really? Okay, okay.
I'm going to the Midnight Mansion to see Amazo.
I'm gonna tell! No, Ginny, please! All right, I won't.
If you take me with you.
No way! Besides, you hate magic.
Whatever.
Mom! Shh! This Amazo guy better be good.
- You better be good.
- Ladies and gentlemen, the Midnight Mansion is proud to present live on our stage the prince of prestidigitation, the master of magic, the wizard of wonder, Amazo! This is so great.
Maybe he'll pick me to be a volunteer! Did you see that? Did you see that? Yeah! Thank you, and good evening, ladies and gentlemen.
- What's the matter, buddy? Having a bad "hare" day? That's the one thing they don't teach you in magician school Rabbits have no sense of humor.
I love you when you're angry.
Now, then, ladies and gentlemen, I need a volunteer someone from our audience.
Ah.
Perhaps you, son.
Would you like to come up? He picked me! I'm going up! I'm going up! Let's give him a big hand, everyone.
I need someone small enough to fit into this box.
And you look just about the right size.
But we better check just to be sure.
Mm-hmm.
'Kay.
Huh.
Oh, I've got some bad news for you, I'm afraid.
You're an inch too tall.
But wait.
Maybe this will do the trick.
- Now, what is your name? - Tim.
Tim.
Tim, I have to be honest with you.
It's a brand-new trick.
I haven't quite perfected it yet.
It doesn't always work.
But you look like a bit of a risk-taker.
Hop inside.
You see, it's easy enough to make someone disappear, but they don't always come back.
Oh, by the way, if you meet a redheaded boy with a Hawaiian shirt, tell him he got an "A" in science class, and his cat had kittens.
- - Bye-bye.
- Here we go.
One, two, three, four When I open the trunk, Tim will be no more! Cool.
So far, so good.
Uh-oh.
Hello? Anybody? Help! Anyone there? - Well, thank you.
- That's our show for tonight.
Yeah.
So much for seeing it.
Hey, kid.
The exit's down that way.
Uh, Mr.
Amazo? It's me Tim.
From the disappearing act? Um, hello? Beat it, kid.
Mr.
Amazo? Well, um I-I thought that you that you might want to know they left me locked up in that room for the whole What do I care? You know how many kids would give their right arm to be in my show? Now get out of here, you little brat.
Uh Are you calling me a a brat? What's the matter? Are you deaf or just stupid? Beat it.
Amazo's magic kit.
Close the door on your way out.
- Where have you been? - Shh! Ginny! You were leaving without me? I'm telling Mom! Look, I'm sorry.
Amazo, that jerk, kept me locked up in a room.
I can't believe it.
My idol's nothing but a creep.
What's that? It's Amazo's magic bag.
You stole it? Yeah.
I took it from his dressing room.
We'll see how amazing he is without it.
I want to see! No! No! We gotta go! I want to see it now! No! I'll let you see it tomorrow first thing.
I promise.
Let's go.
What was that? He booby-trapped it.
I think it's a computer chip or something.
Hey, be careful.
Where are the instructions? There are no instructions.
This isn't a toy, you know? This is Amazo's private kit.
It doesn't need instructions.
It's It's fake.
But look at it though.
It's so real.
This stuff is the best.
What's this? Ah.
You stand behind it.
Magicians use it to make things disappear.
- Neat.
- Leave it alone though.
Ginny, I said leave it alone.
You don't know what you're doing.
Ginny! Ginny? Oh Oh, no.
Oh, no.
I've turned my sister into a rabbit! Ginny? Ginny? If it's you, give me a sign.
You want a sign? Go to the corner.
It says "stop.
" Oh! What are you looking around for? There's nobody here but you and me.
But-But "But, but, but.
" What are you, a motorboat? Talk to me man to man.
But you're a rabbit.
And you're a kid.
It's a figure of speech! Besides, I am only a rabbit on the outside.
Inside, I am El Sydney, wizard extraordinaire.
You know my act.
- If you're Sydney, then - El Sydney.
If you're El Sydney, then where's my sister? Where's Ginny? Hey! Watch the foot.
She's gone, disappeared.
You can blame Amazo.
He has all these evil tricks.
You should have left his stuff alone.
Oh, man.
I knew I never should have taken that magic case.
I have to get my sister back.
If I don't, my parents will kill me.
"Me, me, me.
" What about me? You know how long I've been a rabbit? The humiliation I've endured? I met Amazo when I was just a young boy starting out in the world of magic.
He was my hero.
Mine too! That severed head routine with the guillotine A terrific gag.
- It should be.
I invented it.
- Really? So what happened? I got to meet him backstage one time, and he encouraged me.
Before you know it, I was on my way to being a star.
Then one night I run into Amazo.
I had this magic wand I wanted to show him hundreds of years old.
It was real magic, not some tricked-up prop.
Amazo went nuts.
He stole the wand.
In fact, he stole my entire act.
And if that wasn't enough, he turned me into a "wabbit.
" And now he uses me in his show.
But what about my sister? Yeah, I can get her back.
But I need your help.
I'm not too handy these days.
Well, what do I have to do? There's only one thing to do.
We have to steal back my magic wand.
Hey, don't get nervous, kid.
You're making me twitch.
Shh! Amazo catches you, you'll spend your whole magic career as Timothy, the dancing chicken.
Come on! He keeps the wand with his props on stage.
Hey, kid, get the light.
It's behind the curtain.
Stop fooling around with this stuff.
We got work to do.
- Whoa! - Close your mouth, kid.
You're catching flies.
We gotta find the magic wand before Amazo comes back to rehearse.
Sorry.
What's it look like? Duh! How about black, about two feet long with white tips? - Try the cupboard.
- You're awfully grouchy.
I'm under a lot of stress! And I have fleas.
Well, that's just wonderful.
Which one's the right one? Pretend you are a magician.
Better yet, abracadabra! You're a magician.
Now, say the magic words.
Abra cadabra! - Cool.
- Wrong.
Wrong wand.
Try the next one.
Ala kazam! Oh, boy.
Here we go.
Yikes! - Rigatoni! - It's about time! Hey, this one didn't do anything.
It's busted.
I'll show you what it can do.
Put me in the coffin.
Hey, wait a minute.
You said you'd bring my sister back first.
Hurry.
Bring me back, and I can bring back your kid sister.
We had a deal.
What about our deal? - All right, all right.
Stop wasting time.
- Yeah.
Go get that drape.
All right.
Hold it up.
Wave that magic wand for all it's worth.
Say the magic words, and poof you get your sister back.
What magic words? Do I have to do everything? You want to be a magician, or what? Okay.
Alakazam, alakazar.
Ginny, come back from wherever you are! Please! I'm telling Mom! But, Ginny, wait! I didn't do anything! Bet you're glad she's back.
Now, come on.
- Pick me up.
We don't have much time.
- But she Forget about her telling your parents.
With your talent, I could use you in the act.
Really? Of course! Kiddo, the way you did that "alakazam" you're a natural.
Really? You mean it? On stage in your act? Nightly.
And two shows on Saturday.
But, quick, before Amazo shows up.
Into the coffin.
Hey! Watch it! That's my lucky foot.
Sorry.
You all right? It's all right.
Alakazam, alakazar.
This could get to be a habit.
Free El Sydney from the skin of a rabbit.
Who's there? Hey, it's you the kid from the disappearing act last night.
What happened to you? Where did you go? Well, I waited, and then you told me to beat it, remember? I did? I never said that.
Ah! You found my magic kit.
Great.
Well, uh I tried a few of your tricks.
I-I hope you don't mind.
Oh, that's fine, as long as Hey, where's the rabbit? You didn't let him out, did you? He's very dangerous, very tricky.
He used to be an evil magician, but I changed him into a rabbit for everyone's good.
He said you were the evil one.
Yeah, he would say that.
- You talked to him? Honey, I'm home! Looking for this? You know what it's like having to eat nothing but lettuce and carrots? No dressing, nothing! Just lettuce and carrots! You know what it's like calling a hat your home? You know what it's like having your ears tugged and twisted? All right.
I'm bitter.
I was a bitter bunny! But no longer.
You think you could trap the great El Sydney in the body of a rabbit forever? Forget it.
You're not good enough.
You never were! Now it's my turn.
Behold! Amazo, El Rabbito! Uh, Mr.
Sydney, I think I have a dentist's appointment or something.
So I'm just What do you mean? Aren't we having fun yet? The Great Timothini is far too valuable to lose.
Besides, we had a deal, remember? I need you in my act.
Really? Absolutely.
Isn't that what you wanted? Well, yeah.
Then hold on.
Midnight Mansion is proud to present, for a return engagement, El Sydney! Ordinarily I only use uno "rabbito," but this trick doesn't always work so well.
I guess I'm a little rusty.
Rusty blade.
Get it? Now, ladies, and gentlemen, I need a volunteer from the audience, someone who's not afraid to "split hares.
" - Don't worry, Tim.
- I'll think of something.
I'll get us out of this.
What? And quit show business?
