Dan White! We love you.
Thank you for coming back to the show.
And Chrissy's a fan of magic, as well.
I'm so excited for this.
You are, like, a magic geek, right?
I'm a magic geek. I'm a magic groupie.
You really are? Yeah.
Oh, you're going to freak out. Dan is the best.
Tonight, we're going to try an experiment in empathy, okay?
In a minute, you...
I lose.
No, no, for real.
In a minute, you are going to feel what each other feels
and see what each other sees.
And if we do this right, if you do this right,
you're going to be able to read the other person's mind.
What? Seriously.
So, let's come over here.
I want everybody to get a little bit closer.
Come a little closer right over here.
I want you to both look in each other's eyes.
Hold on. I told Jimmy before I have hot wing burps.
Interesting.
You don't have to say it out loud.
I know, but... I'll ignore it. I'll ignore it.
Okay. I don't have hot wing burps.
Okay. Okay.
How many hot wings did you eat?
Ten, and they were all of varying degrees of difficulty.
And I... Okay. Don't worry about it.
It's a lot.
So far, so good.
I'm sorry. TMI.
Well, we're going to be...
We're getting a little closer here,
so this might affect something.
So, okay. I want you to both face each other.
Good. And I want you to both look in each other's eyes.
Look in each other's eyes.
Good. And I want you to relax completely.
Good. Good, good, good.
And I want you to focus right here.
Focus right here on my hand.
Okay. And I'm going to lower my hand.
And as I do that, I want you to focus on my fingers.
And I want you to close your eyes slowly.
Close your eyes completely.
Good. And relax even further.
And I want you to take a big, deep breath in and out.
And in a second, I'm going to snap my fingers.
And when I do that, I want you to open your eyes
and imagine that you're looking at a reflection of yourself.
Good, good, good, good, good, good, good.
Fantastic. All right. I want you both to have a seat.
Both to have a seat. Both to have a seat.
Just sit down. Very nice.
And I want you both to relax.
Seriously, I want you to relax.
All right. Relax completely.
Actually, sit back. Sit back.
Sit back. Relax. Good. Good. Fantastic.
And Chrissy, we're going to start this with you.
You can open your eyes.
In a second, I'm actually going to ask you to close your eyes again.
But when I do that, I want you to focus on every single thing
that you feel, every single thing that you hear.
And I want you to stay completely still and completely silent.
Okay? So do that now. Close your eyes.
Stay completely still and completely silent.
Good. Good.
We shouldn't have had the drinks, honestly.
Chrissy, keep your eyes closed.
Yes or no, did you feel something?
Yes.
Chrissy, point to where you felt it.
Right here.
Chrissy, open your eyes.
I didn't touch you at all. I touched Jimmy.
No. You're such a liar.
No, no, no. Let's take this further.
I want you to see it this time because you didn't see it.
So same thing.
Jimmy, this time I want you to close your eyes.
What is going on?
Jimmy, close your eyes. Relax. Sit back. Relax.
Here we go.
In a second, I'm going to touch you on different places on your body.
Thank you.
But, Jimmy, when I do that,
I want you to raise your right hand
and remember where I touched you, okay?
Here we go. Whenever you feel a touch,
whenever you feel a touch, raise your right hand.
Okay.
Good. You can look. Did you feel anything?
Yes.
What is going on? Are you joking around?
Is Questlove behind me or something?
No, no. Let's take this a little bit further.
Let's take this a little bit further.
Christy? Yes.
You're going to try to read his mind.
Okay. We're going to take this a step further.
This one's a lot harder, so I need you to both relax.
Okay. Both relax completely. Good.
Okay. I have an envelope right here.
And inside this envelope are a series of drawings.
Now, you have no idea what these drawings are, correct?
You have not seen these.
You have no idea what these drawings are at all.
I'm going to show these drawings to the audience.
But, Christy, I want you to close your eyes
because I don't want you to see what they are, okay?
But everybody else is going to see them.
We have a series of drawings. Yeah, you too.
Very simple drawings.
We've got some things that are easy to recognize,
easy to see. Anybody can recognize
what these drawings are.
Okay, Jimmy, I want you to choose one.
Pick any one that you like.
Okay. Looking at them?
Yeah, it's up to you. Okay.
Good. I want you to take it out. Don't show anybody else.
And I want you to sit on it.
Sit on it so nobody else can see what it is.
Okay. And let me know when it's gone out of view.
You remember what it is? Yeah.
Good. Gone out of view? Out of view, correct?
Yeah, out of view. Christy, open your eyes.
Christy, open your eyes.
You have no idea what he's thinking of right now,
what drawing he chose. Is that correct?
In a second, you're going to try to get in each other's heads.
Jimmy is going to get inside of your head,
and you're going to be able to understand
what he's thinking of right now. So all you have to do ...
I'm going to touch your third eye right there.
Let's call that your third eye, okay?
When I do that, I want you to close your eyes completely,
and I want you to plug your ears completely
so you can't see or hear anything, okay?
So let's give that a shot right now.
You know what to do. Close your eyes.
Close your eyes and plug your ears.
Okay. Here we go. Good. Christy, can you hear me?
Okay, fantastic. Open up. Take it. Perfect.
That's perfect. You're doing it good.
Jimmy, all you have to do is think of the image.
Think of it. Say it over and over in your head.
Almost scream it to her. All right?
Here we go. Christy?
This is a lot of pressure.
Christy, you know what to do. Here we go.
Just relax. Just relax. Close your eyes.
Close your eyes. Plug your ears.
Plug your ears. Plug your ears. Good. Here we go.
Jimmy, send the thought to Christy.
Good. Christy, open your eyes. Open your ears.
Do you have any idea what he's thinking of, yes or no?
The birdcage.
Jimmy, stand up. Show it to the audience.
Oh, my gosh! Oh, my gosh! My thanks to Dan White!
