Misdirection

O: "Mom, I'm trying to do a magic trick with these four cards."

M: "Okay."

He stands in front of the mirror clapping his hands together while the cards lay in his hands.

O: "Mom, this is called misdirection. It's supposed to make the cards disappear. But it's not working."

He keeps clapping expecting the cards to disappear. Then finally lets them drop to the ground."

O: "See. Misdirection."
