01:05 It's not really bothering me.
01:07 We're gonna need that in a second.
01:08 We're gonna do some magic.
01:10 Don't worry, I won't make you disappear.
01:12 I know you came with a lot of friends
01:13 and I want them to help on the magic too.
01:15 - Hey, Boobie.
01:17 Yo, pull up.
01:18 - They think I'm gonna make them disappear too.

01:29 so can you get closer?
01:30 Go ahead and take one out.
01:32 That one, okay.

01:35 Two of diamonds.
01:36 Can you sign it for us?
01:38 Okay, we're gonna take the two of diamonds
01:42 with Boobie's card and Uzi's signature.
01:44 Have you ever done magic?
01:45 - Never.
01:46 - Never?
01:47 I'm gonna teach it to you too.
01:47 So if you take the card, we'll mix it in.
01:48 You know how to shuffle?
01:50 You guys don't gamble?
01:51 - I mean, I play bucket rack.
01:52 - And you're good?
01:53 - Yeah.

01:55 - Yeah.
01:56 - What's the biggest you've ever won?

01:58 - It's a thousand.
02:01 - Oh.
02:02 - Shout out to Hard Rock Atlantic City.
02:03 - So your card's not on top, right?
02:05 Not on bottom.
02:06 It's gotta be somewhere in the middle.
02:07 I need both hands out flat.
02:09 Anyone back there just say stop.
02:11 - Stop.
02:12 - Right here, more or less, good.
02:14 This is gonna be my card, okay?
02:16 The 10 of diamonds.
02:18 We have your card, the two of diamonds.
02:20 We're gonna put your hand,
02:21 put your hand on top like this.
02:23 Sandwich his hands.
02:24 Perfect.
02:26 You guys hold hands before?
02:27 - No.
02:28 - So there's no way I can get between you two strong guys.
02:30 Right?
02:31 I'm gonna be over here with my 10 of diamonds.
02:32 Do you remember where your card was?
02:33 - Your card outside.
02:34 - One, two, three.
02:37 So if I have the two of diamonds with your signature,
02:43 what's in your hand?
02:44 - How?
02:46 - I don't know.
02:47 I don't know how to write that down.
02:48 I don't know.
02:49 (laughing)
02:50 - I'm out of here.
02:50 Nice to meet you.
02:51 - Nice to meet you too, boobies.
02:52 - Good job.
02:53 - Good job.
02:54 - Yeah, that's crazy.
02:55 I like your jewelry.
02:56 Which was the most expensive?
02:58 - This one, I got it for a gift.
02:59 It's a GIA certified pink diamond.
03:02 So it's like my most expensive bracelet that I own.
03:05 - So everyone's gonna be looking at your hands after this.
03:06 So that's why I need everyone to notice the jewelry.
03:09 Make sure it stays on,
03:10 stays on him the whole time
03:12 and I don't make it disappear.
03:13 I promise.
03:14 Hold up both hands flat.
03:15 I'm gonna take your signed card,
03:17 Lil Uzi Vert on the two of diamonds.
03:18 We're gonna put about halfway into the middle of the cards.
03:21 No sleight of hand, making it as fair.
03:22 I'm gonna put the cards in your hand.
03:23 Hold tight.
03:24 I'm gonna reach in and try to grab one card from the middle.
03:27 Okay, ready?
03:28 One card from the middle.
03:31 Don't move.
03:32 What are the odds?
03:33 You think I got it?
03:34 - I hope you got it.
03:35 - I think I got it.
03:36 - Yeah, you do.
03:37 - I think I got it.
03:38 But wait, wait, wait.
03:39 I could do one better.
03:40 I can make all the cards in your hand disappear
03:42 without me even touching you.
03:43 Check it out.
03:45 I already did it.
03:46 Take a look.
03:47 - Open my hands.
03:48 - They're gone.
03:49 (crowd gasping)
03:53 - How'd she do that?
03:55 - Do you have your phone?
03:56 - My phone?
03:57 - Yeah.
03:57 - Hey Cap, come here.
04:00 Bring your phone.
04:01 (crowd laughing)
04:02 - No, no, no.
04:03 You guys have probably known each other
04:04 for a long time, right?
04:05 - I don't like this already.
04:07 - I've never had anyone so scared of me
04:10 within the first five seconds of meeting.
04:12 Give it up for Cap, everybody.
04:13 (crowd applauding)
04:16 So it's still off.
04:17 Can you count up zero to nine out loud?
04:20 - Zero.
04:22 - Zero.
04:23 One.
04:24 - Is the first number one?
04:25 I got lucky.
04:29 Let's do it again.
04:30 Backwards, nine to zero.
04:31 - Nine, eight, seven, six.
04:35 - Six?
04:36 Second number six?
04:37 Do you know his code?
04:41 I think you'd go for another...
04:42 Is it a one?
04:45 You could have picked anyone here.
04:46 You could have picked anyone.
04:47 It could have been this guy, this guy's phone.
04:48 - Utah's on.
04:50 - We've never met before.
04:51 Haven't set anything up.
04:52 Can you confirm?
04:53 - Yeah, Utah's on.
04:56 - Why would I tell her my password?
04:57 - But you seem like you're always on the go,
04:59 you know, in a rush trying to get somewhere.
05:02 So you want a convenient passcode,
05:03 but nothing too obvious,
05:04 but I think you'd go for another six.
05:05 Is that right?
05:06 (crowd laughing)
05:09 Do you want me to tell everybody or?
05:11 - I just want to see if you can really guess me.
05:12 - You can change it later.
05:13 So we go for a one, six, one, six.
05:16 Can I see your finger, Uzi?
05:18 - Yeah.
05:19 - You go for a zero, is that right?
05:22 - Oh.
05:22 (crowd laughing)
05:25 - You're gonna have to change it
05:26 'cause it'll go again.
05:26 It was another zero.
05:27 (crowd laughing)
05:30 So now I can go through your texts, your emails.
05:38 There's nothing in here
05:39 I can't show everybody right now, right?
05:41 - You gonna lie to your girlfriend,
05:43 she's gonna see this,
05:44 she's gonna know your password.
05:45 - Change it before your girlfriend sees it.
05:46 This is the number one thing
05:47 every girl has asked me to teach them.
05:49 So you want me to get in your girl's phone?
05:51 - Yeah.
05:52 - You want me to do that?
05:53 - Yeah.
05:54 - I'll teach you how to get into your girl's phone.
05:55 - Teach me, for real.
05:56 - Someone else's phone,
05:57 again, I don't want you to think like.
05:58 - Movie.
05:59 (crowd laughing)
06:01 Get your phone.
06:02 - He's hiding it from me
06:03 as if it makes a difference at this point.
06:06 Go to the calculator app.
06:09 I'm gonna ask you guys some questions
06:10 to test your connection out
06:11 in front of everyone here today.
06:12 How old were you when you met Uzi?
06:14 23, okay?
06:16 23.
06:17 Hit multiplies.
06:18 And how many albums do you have out?
06:20 - Three.
06:22 - Three.
06:23 Hold the phone for me.
06:24 This is his phone again,
06:25 so I want you guys to know that.
06:26 How much does the bracelet cost?
06:30 - This one?
06:30 - Yeah.
06:31 Just $300?
06:34 - What, I gotta put $300?
06:35 - Yeah, yeah.
06:36 Show the camera, 300,000.
06:37 Okay, big number.
06:38 How much money do you have in your bank account?
06:40 - Me?
06:41 - Yeah, put the number in.
06:42 You don't have to show,
06:43 you don't even have to show me.
06:44 I don't want you to.
06:45 - No, I'll show you.
06:45 (laughing)
06:47 - Wait, with all the zeros?
06:49 Oh, right now?
06:51 - Right now.
06:52 - You check it all the time?
06:53 That's the number?
06:53 - I just came back from Europe.
06:56 - What does that mean?
06:57 - It's supposed to be more than that.
06:58 I spent too much money.
06:59 - Oh, this is after.
07:00 - That's not as crazy as y'all think.
07:02 - Press equals for us.
07:04 Hold onto it.
07:05 We got a random number.
07:06 I don't want to know what it is.
07:07 We added, divide, subtracted, multiplied, everything.
07:10 Right, it's kind of a weird number.
07:11 There's like six digits, hundreds of thousands?
07:14 Or seven digits?
07:15 - Seven.
07:16 - Just give me the first number that it starts with.
07:17 - Seven.
07:18 - Seven, seven digits, seven numbers.
07:20 First number starts with seven.
07:21 7,311,000?
07:25 Is that right?
07:26 311,000, wait, wait, wait.
07:27 311,995?
07:31 Show everybody, is that correct?
07:32 So that's so weird,
07:33 'cause does that number mean anything to you?
07:35 - Yeah, I see it.
07:36 - 'Cause that's a number,
07:37 but it can also look like a date.
07:39 What date is this?
07:40 - I thought you were dead.
07:42 - You were born on July 31st, 1995?
07:46 - That could be it.
07:46 - Whoa.
07:47 - Because you're a Leo like me.
07:51 - You're a Leo.
07:52 - I'm a Leo, obviously.
07:53 - Oh yeah, you crazy.
07:54 (laughing)
07:55 - We're all crazy.
07:56 Give it up for Jordan.
07:58 - Hey, how you doing?
07:59 - Hi, I'm Anna, nice to meet you.
08:00 I think we've all been waiting for you.
08:02 - For real?
08:03 - How do you know Uzi?
08:04 - He's my friend, long time.
08:05 - Long time?
08:06 This is so crazy, look.
08:07 Just check this out.
08:08 - Oh.
08:09 (laughing)
08:12 - Do you like magic?
08:14 - Yeah, I like magic.
08:15 - You can see all the cards are different.
08:16 Do you wanna shuffle them?
08:18 You play cards?
08:19 You play Baccarat too?
08:21 You're gonna hold on to the cards
08:23 'cause Jordan's gonna do the magic, okay?
08:25 I'm gonna give all the power to Jordan.
08:27 In the deck, there are red cards and black cards.
08:29 Which one do you want us to take out?
08:31 - The red.
08:33 - Do you wanna get rid of the hearts or the diamonds?
08:35 - Hearts.
08:36 - Get rid of them, we're taking them out.
08:38 So that leaves us with the diamonds.
08:40 So imagine that in a deck,
08:42 you're holding all the diamond cards, okay?
08:44 You like diamonds, as we know.
08:45 There are numbers and letters.
08:47 Which one are we taking out?
08:49 - Taking out the letters.
08:49 - Which letters, Jack, Queen, King?
08:51 - Kings.
08:52 - Kings?
08:53 Jordan, do the magical snap, magician wave,
08:56 whatever you wanna do.
08:56 Check it out, top card, jump to the top.
08:59 (laughing)
09:01 - I don't know how the hell that happened.
09:06 I don't know how that happened.
