How cool would it be to be a super spy? Travel the world, stop the bad guy, save the planet and still meet the girl (or guy) before the bomb goes off. All in a day’s work.
The performer sets the scene by talking about the skill set required to be a super spy, and then puts a participant to the test in the ultimate assessment of their cunning and intuition. The participant is given a series of 50 / 50 choices, based around the story of a spy mission. Each time, the performer writes one of those choices on a card. This can be placed on the table, on your hand, on the spectator’s hand or even held up in full view between two fingers at the corner of the card. The participant makes their choice AFTER the card has been written and placed down, and each time the card is IMMEDIATELY turned over (and always before the next choice is given) and the participant is correct. Every time.
After this has happened 6 or 7 times, a card that has been on the table in view the whole time is turned over and the spectator is also shown to have correctly divined a secret code word that you wrote down before the routine even started. This can be completely different every time. The participant does it without any clues and they will have no idea how they were able to intuit which word it is.
What makes Counter Intelligence different?
There are 7 hits in around 3 minutes (I can’t think of another mentalism routine that does that – but I’m sure that will open the floodgates for others to point out routines that are not on my radar!) and it leads to a very strong kicker finish.
It’s designed for strolling and instantly resets, ready to go again at the next table.
Each reveal is shown immediately after the choice has been made.The participant and the performer can both turn the cards over. That can be done in a very open, slow and super clean way.
The participant is as fooled as the audience – they have exactly the same experience and the participant is not in on the secret in any way.
Everything happens in real time and the routine is entirely self-contained. There is no pre-show or other additional setup required.
The outcome for each choice can be different at each table.
