'Penn & Teller: Fool Us Season 7 Episode 2 Preview: Can Penn pull the ultimate prank on Teller?
Like Roald Dahl said, those who don't believe in magic will never find it. It's time to see the magic in another riveting 'Penn & Teller' episode. In the previous episode, magicians Shawn Farquhar, Helen Coghlan, Paul Gertner and Ondrej Pšenicka did their best to 'fool' Penn and Teller. However, being masters of illusion themselves, they were able to figure out how to get to the bottom of the tricks. While the magicians were undoubtedly impressive, Coghlan was the only one who managed to fool Penn and Teller, all three times.
The official synopsis for the upcoming episode reads, "Penn tries to fool Teller; featured magicians include Eric Leclerc, Dev Sherman, Conan Liu and Rubén Vilagrand."
However, Penn trying to fool Teller will also be a lot of fun to watch.
The previous episode had some stellar moments. Pšenicka, who had appeared on the show years ago, returned hoping to fool Penn and Teller, three times in a row. Though he couldn't succeed completely, he managed to trick them twice. First, he got host Alyson Hannigan to hand over a card to one of the guests. The card that was revealed, was the same one he had predicted in an old episode from years ago. He tried another card trick with Penn and Teller, making them pick a card, that was exactly the same one he had predicted years ago. Penn and Teller were able to figure this trick out but were still undoubtedly impressed by the magician.
Meanwhile, Paul Gertner asked Penn to pick a number between 1 and 52. Penn picked 47. Teller was asked to pick a card from the pack. Paul discreetly wrote something on a piece of paper, sticking it into Penn's pen. After much shuffling around and conversation, he asked Penn to look at the piece of paper. Lo and behold, he had managed to predict that Penn would pick the number 47 and that Teller would pick a Jack of Spades. While the trick was undoubtedly impressive, Penn and Teller still figured out the trick.
So tune in for some more magic on 'Penn& Teller: Fool Us', which airs on Tuesdays, CW at 9 pm.
