[first lines]

Orson Welles:
For my next experiment ladies and gentleman, I would appreciate the loan of any small personal object form your pocket. A key, box of matches, a coin - ah, key it is, good sir. Hold it up 10 feet over your head and watch out for the slightest hint - of hanky panky. Behold, before our very eyes - a transformation. We've changed your key - into a coin. What happened to the key? It's been returned to you. Look closely, sir, you'll find the key back in your pocket. May we see it please?
The Girl:
Back to the old tricks, I see.
Orson Welles:
Why not? I'm a charlatan. What's that, sir? Did I used to be a magician? Sir, I'm still working on it. As for the key, it was not - symbolic of anything. This isn't that kind of movie. You'll find the coin, now, in your pocket, sir. Keep your eyes on that coin, sir, while it's returned to you - as your key. Should we return you to your mother? Is this your mother? No, of course not. Open your mouth - wide and we'll return you your money. And by the way, have you ever heard of Robert Houdin, speaking of magicians, I mean. Oh no, of course not. But of course, you do know my partner François Reichenbach.
Self - Special Participant:
Hello.
Orson Welles:
Houdin was *the* greatest magician who ever lived. Do you know what he said? "A magician," he said, "is just an actor."
The Girl:
Well, good luck to you,
Orson Welles:
"Just an actor playing the part of a magician."
