"Mickey" is doing his best to entertain an audience with his magical trickery but "Donald" is sitting in his front row box determined to expose him as a shyster! He continually attempts to disrupt the act - but each time he is bettered by the increasingly irritated entertainer who eventually resorts to filling "Donald" with decks of playing cards so as to stifle his constant haranguing. This is an enjoyable comedy that has a duelling nature to it. The comedy is end-to-end for eight minutes of combative fun that uses magic (well conjuring and illusionism, really) as a conduit for the action that leads to a suitably messy ending that wouldn't have looked out of place in the "Sorcerer's Apprentice". Good fun!
