Alan, when I watch what happens in .25x speed, it's plainly obvious that I am fooled 4 times slower. Great trick!

Allison’s quick thinking with the cellophane wrap at the end was genius

[@andrew66862]

No way Jonathan Ross was pulling that out.

[@BassCossack1]

she knew immediately when he said he did not. ...OH! and grabs the remaining cellophane.

[@TheOldMan-75]

@@andrew66862 Hey! No need to throw shade on my boy Jonathan Woss.

[@craigaherrington]

I said the same thing out loud watching the video, great job Allison on improvising and putting a stamp on the end of the segment.

[@cg21]

The woman is a fantastic host.

[@MetehanDoyran]

That is an excellent showcase of why we loved Allison as the host of this show!

[@heisenberg69]

I was thinking the same thing!

[@nicholasram8235]

Apparebtly to some tasteless people, brook is better😂😂😂😂, brook is literally the defination of a dumb blonde.. sad yes, alison for the win

[@wuerzelburg]

Yes she is the most adorable host.

[@zakmartin]

The old cellophane trick! I can't believe Penn and Teller didn't see through it.

[@jimbobjones9330]

That was a pretty transparent attempt at humor.

[@davideventili2881]

BRUHHHHHHHH

[@LDUKMusic]

That is hilarious 😂

[@MaxxsHandle]

Oh cause its clear

[@ericmol2614]

Yeah, it's all over now. That's a wrap.

[@xXFluffers]

my favorite moments on fool us are when penn suggests the solution to the trick, often times fairly confidently, only to have the magician tell him that no, that's not it at all. Penn and teller both immediately get so excited when they hear their hunch was wrong, it's honestly really cool to see how passionate they are

[@gonzalogoded2089]

Bear in mind producers can tell them if they are correct or not. I believe producers wouldn't let them tell the method right away if they were correct, so in this case I believe Penn knew very well he was guessing wrong

[@dr.floridamanphd]

@@gonzalogoded2089 that’s true. There’s even been a few rare cases where Allison gets informed by one of the producers/judges saying P&T didn’t get it even though they believed they did.

[@Misteribel]

I may be wrong, but Penn not talking in code could’ve been because he almost certainly knew it wasn’t the right guess anyway. Congrats on a fabulous, funny trick! ❤

[@danielmann5427]

That was my thought too. He knew it wasn't a right guess.

[@stephenbeck7222]

Yes, Penn is a showman through and through. When he doesn’t have code for a correct guess that he likes, he just has Teller draw a diagram in his notebook and shows it to the magician discreetly.

[@alexanderchang4735]

@@stephenbeck7222 could be wrong but maybe that (teller walking up/whispering in his ear) couldn’t happen due to the covid regulations? No idea though and maybe Penn did think his guess was wrong

[@danieldk5148]

I've seen comments saying that they take much kore time than we see here and the producers/judges can gear everything they say and even say something back like "if you think thats it, you can just say it".

[@theoh.5734]

Not wanting to break one secret of the show, so just a litle: Penn did know it wasn't the right guess

[@zenwarrior6945]

My favourite part of this is that you seem legitimately surprised that you fooled Penn and Teller. Congratulations!!!

[@AlanHudsonmagician]

I genuinely was!

[@aiiaznsk8er]

@@AlanHudsonmagician Seeing your reaction to fooling them is the best part, well done!

[@TylerMann]

Damn!! Nice work! And I love Alison already grabbing the wrap before the Fooler came up, she was so excited she had the idea lol

[@GeorgeValkov]

It's a wrap. Alyson came up with a very original idea. I bet you kept laughing for a good long time after the show. 😀 I love your performance!

[@tunghnguyen]

I bet the reflex from all those sitcom years must have helped haha

[@torma99]

We had to wait for it for years but this was the time when I first felt Allison was on par with Jonathan Ross as a host.

[@MarcosDocabo70]

Alyson is such a treasure. That thing with the trophy and the plastic wrap was so sweet and funny!

[@fuglbird]

Alyson is the reason I watch these shows.

[@shawnneice4322]

​@@fuglbird she is gorgeous and cute at the same time.

[@falcoproudneck]

I'm not a magician, but I feel like the soul of this trick was in the misdirection and not on the moves. Absolutely beautiful.

[@hanstrolljegeren4317]

Misdirection is one of the primary fundamentals to magic/sleight of hand. Indeed, sometimes, that's the point.

[@draksig12]

The card fountion was a great distraction. Love both of their reaction to seeing the card.

[@MrVaNiLlApHaNtAsY]

I thought the same thing. Definitely a well done trick

[@TheDepressedMemeCat]

ah yes, the card "FOUNTION"

[@CyberwizardProductions]

good act and a hysterically funny ending. I think the absolute best part was when you proved to penn that you couldn't move your arms by trying to hold the bottom of the trophy as you exited the stage.

[@akhere4279]

He didn't say that he couldn't move his arms... he said he didn't do it that way.. he did it another way.

[@travisfox5034]

Watching it now it's night and day from the new host. Allison loved the magic and had fun doing the tricks. She got excited and was part of the show. The new hos acts afraid to do her part and isn't at all having fun. Nor does she legitimately seem to enjoy the tricks. Her replies are always cliche at best. Please bring her back. Whatever it takes! Anyone want to start a petition and boycott? LMAO!😅

[@jayducharme]

That was delightful. It's nice to see you wrapped up in your work.

[@hquest]

The producer of that jacket, or those shoes, might be very proud of such timely applied physics like yours. Amazing performance, kudos for fooling P&T.

[@VarmintLP]

I feel like this is a hint as to how he did it. I have my suspicions on that too.

[@jl98456]

I'd bet double or nothing it's not the shoes

[@thexanderthemander]

He palms the card and puts it under the Lapel of his jacket. When he moves his arm a certain way it drops from his jacket.

[@thomasdickson3622]

Very close and almost perfect, rewatching it I can see how it's done; it does involve motion but the card never moved ...

[@alextheuxguy]

Love it, great performance and stage presence! Teller really seemed shocked when the card appeared under the wrap!

[@orrvaa]

Amazing, didn't expected this method at all, its even more amazing after you figure it out and still don't understand how you did it so clean

[@andrewtessman9921]

Honestly, I think Alyson's solution at the very end was both brilliant and befitting, given the act and props.

[@redmammad]

The entire performance was great, I loved it!

[@ShaneKnockItOff]

Nice trick! Hands fully tied, I wouldn't want to yank your chain 😉

[@EDBybee]

Really great act. Loved the patter and your wonderful humor. Seeing Teller's expression when the card appears was priceless. Thoroughly enjoyed act.

Thank you! Cheers!

[@jimbobjones9330]

If he wrapped his head, it would have been a much shorter, if more impressive, trick.

[@maumbu]

I've seen soo many episodes and this is the first time I've ever re-watched a trick. Congrats mate. 👏🏿

[@titmusspaultpaul5]

Loved that trick. Very funny and entertaining. That's all I can hope for in a trick but fooling Penn & Teller just makes it all the more exciting.... cheers, and well done.

[@Clothahump1]

Alyson wrapping the trophy on at the end was priceless!!

[@radu_nedelcut]

Loved the trick. Video editing prevents me from fully enjoying it but still had a lot of fun watching this and I don't know how it's done. Congratulations!

5:11 the look on Penns face

[@4ntig3n]

Finally one that I understood but P&T didn't. Great act :)

[@jttech44]

The move was so appropriate and natural, you really couldn't see it unless you know it's happening, and even then, the card just shows up, like it still looks like magic, which is very very cool.

[@onlyguitar1001]

Wonderful!

[@z.a.7846]

This was absolutely amazing. A very fun act 🔥

[@IzroneI]

What a great routine. Enjoyed it! I feel like the crowd didn’t appreciate your humor as much as they should have, though.

[@RobertBallMagician]

A brilliant performance and a trophy too😊👍😊👍😊🎊🎉🎊👏👏👏

[@ace_falken5362]

"I'm gonna find that card again without slight of hand..." It is a magicians job to lie to us. Though to be fair, once he was wrapped up his arms and fingers didn't have to bend. And after watching the whole routine like 5 times including using .25x speed (slow mo didn't help) I think I figured it out... Brilliant trick, cling wrap and the card launcher being the only items not common to every magician. (Everyone already has cards, clothing, and a pen)

[@AzaFTW]

whats the solution?

Super fun!

[@djrattis]
