Rapid Transit

For the performance of this clever trick it is necessary for the performer to place a duplicate of a certain card, say the Six of Spades, in the pack.

After having successfully forced one of these two cards, the performer invites a spectator to step forward and assist in the experiment about to follow. The spectator is first requested to empty a pocket, and to place the selected card into the now empty pocket. While the spectator is doing this the conjurer secretly palms the duplicate Six of Spades. Addressing the spectator, the conjurer exclaims: "Upon second thought, I think it will be best if we replace your card in the pack!" at the same time reaching into the spectator's pocket and appearing to remove the selected card.

Instead, the conjurer really takes out the palmed Six of Spades. After showing the card, the conjurer replaces in the pack. Commanding it to vanish, the conjurer "ruffles" the pack and asks the spectator to feel in their pocket. The card, to all appearances, has returned to their pocket.
