.As youplace the face-up right hand cards directly onto the face-down cards, allow thecard above the break to slide above the right finger tips onto the back of theright hand group.In a continuing action, use your left thumb to slide off the topface up card of the right hand group down onto the back of the right hand group.Turn the right hand cards face down onto the left hand cards.Obtain a left littlefinger break below the in-jogged card as your right thumbsquares with the rest of the deck.To the audience you've spread the cards face up "to make sure everything'sokay," then turned the deck face down.STEP II Bring out the blue queen with your right hand, display both sides,then place it face down onto the red deck.Grasp the four card block above thebreak from its right side by its right corners between your right first finger andthumb.Turn the four cards face up onto the deck as one (don't panic, this will befun) by sliding the fat card across the top of the deck to the right then tilting up theright side of the fat card so that its left side contacts your left finger tips.From thisposition turn the four card porker face up (right to left) onto the deck stillholding on with your right first finger and thumb.As the big boy is turned downretain a left little finger break under it.Fig.1.Fig.1.88Without changing the position of your right fingers, slide the top single face upqueen back and forth over the top of the deck "to rub some of the blue off ontothe deck." Fig.2.Remove the single face-up queen and drop it face up in front ofyou onto the table.NOTE The "reason" for putting the queen onto the deck is to rub off some ofthe blue.There is absolutely no heat on the quadruple turn over because you'rechanging a queen for a queen.STEP III You should still have a three card left little finger break.Use yourright fingers to slide out the bottom card of the deck from the front end of thedeck and place it face up square on top of the deck.Fig.3 & 4.Fig.2.Fig.3.89Fig.4.STEP IV Grasp the four card block from above the break with your right fingers fromabove by its ends.Put the tip of your first finger onto the face of the card.Fig.5.Lift thequadruple off the deck as a single card by turning your right hand palm-up.showing thefreshly printed blue back of the card.As the face-up quadruple turns face down away fromthe deck.bow its back toward the audience to conceal the extra thickness.Fig.6.Replacethe quadruple face up onto the deck retaining a left little finger break beneath it, and useyour left thumb to push the top single face-up card off onto the table.behind the tabledqueen.90Fig.6.NOTE I know.you're not thrilled about another quadruple lift.But it'sreally worth it.You've got an impossible instant change of the red card to blueunder test conditions.The bowed quadruple is displayed just long enough for thecolor change to register and then placed back onto the deck.The bow of thecards, the shock of the change, and the cards' constant movement, makes thequadruple an invisible "no worry" sleight.Do the change in front of a mirror afew times to feel a raw surge of magical power.STEP V Repeat the above change two more times.Each time removing asingle card from the bottom & placing it face up on the deck and each timedealing off the single face-up card onto the previously "changed" tabled card.The audience has seen you change three red backed cards into three bluebacked cards.You still have a three card left little finger break.The top threecards consist of a face down red card.followed by a face up card, followed by theface up blue-backed queen.STEP VI Turn your left hand palm down so that the deck is faceup, with one end to the right.Use your right fingers to openly turn theback card face down so that its right end extends half an inch past the right end ofthe deck.Fig 7.91Fig.7.STEP VII Turn the back of your left hand to the audience so that you arelooking at the face of the reversed card which is now in upjog position.Theback of the card is toward the audience.Fig.8.92STEP VIII Extend your left thumb so that it rests against the upper left side ofthe up-jogged card.Grasp the deck and the up-jogged card from behind with yourright hand so that your right thumb tip rests up against the lower edge of the twocards above the break (there are three cards above the break but your rightthumb tip only comes in contact with the two cards that are together).Rest your right fingers on the top edge of the up-jogged card, and positionyour right first finger on its face at its upper left corner.You are now in position for a visible flash change of the up-jogged red backcard into a blue back card.Get in front of a mirror so that you can see what youraudience sees.Fig.9.Your right thumb presses straight up on its two cards, using the extended leftthumb as a guide, until they square with the up-jogged card against your rightfingers.As the three cards square, sharply move the rest of the deck about sixinches forward so that the entire blue back of the triple is visible to theaudience.Fig.9.NOTE The change should actually happen a moment after the right fingers touch theup-jogged card.As the right thumb starts pushing its two cards up, the left hand shouldalready be moving the deck forward.Afewmore notes:The tip of your right first finger is on the face of the card nearest you(the outer card of the pair that slides up) to help keep the changed triple "tight."93To create the illusion that the red back card "explodes" into a blue back card.you mustcoordinate your actions so that the left hand moves the deck forward at the same speed thatyour right thumb squares its cards which is pretty fast.This means that your left handshoots out about six inches and then stops cold as though hitting a wall.This suddenforward start and stop of the deck visually locks in the change.STEP IX Turn your right hand palm down, leaving the triple held face up from aboveby its ends.Use the left side of the triple to lever the deck face up onto your left palm.Fig.10.As the deck turns face up, follow it down with the triple so that it moves square ontothe face-up deck.allowing your right thumb to obtain a break below the triple.Move yourright fingers down over the outer end of the pack so that the pack is held from above by itsends with your right fingers.Your left thumb should have naturally ended up resting acrossthe face of the pack.Fig.10.STEP X Use your left thumb to slide the top single card off the face of the deck andonto your left fingers.Drop this card face-up onto the other three "blue" cards on the table.Fig.11.Fig.11.94STEP XI Place your palm-up left hand back under the deck to cut a third offthe back of the pack.Place these cut off cards square onto the face of the deck then immediately cut off the cards above the break with your right fingers.Casually tilt your right hand palm up to flash the blue back, then replace the righthand cards face up onto the face-up left hand cards retaining a left little fingerbreak.STEP XII Cut off another third of the pack from the back with your leftfingers, place it on the face of the deck, and again cut to the break with your rightfingers to flash "another" blue back.STEP XIII After flashing the back of the right hand packet for the secondtime, turn it face up and place it beneath the left hand cards squaring the deck.This leaves the blue back card at the back of the face-up deck.Adjust the face-updeck so that it's held by its sides at the tips of your left fingers.STEP XIV Grasp the deck from above by its ends with your right fingers andcut off a small face-up packet of five to ten cards.Turn your left hand palm downto flash the blue back of the deck as the right hand cuts off its packet.Drop theright hand packet face up onto the other stack of four face-up cards on the table
