"OKAY BUDDY. CALM DOWN HEAR ME OUT HOW ABOUT

STUFF AND YOU GIVE ME YOUR WATCH?
THAT'S A VERY GOOD DEAL. YOU'RE NOT CALM?

"I DON'T WANT IT NO DEAL!" "WHY ARE YOU HERE FRIEND?"
I SWITCHED TO THE NEW iPHONE RECENTLY WITH SIRI

BEING A DAD IS THE BEST THING IN THE WORLD
XANDER CHANGED EVERYTHING FOR OUR FAMILY
THEN WE GOT THIS PHONE CALL OUT OF THE BLUE ASKING IF WE WOULD
ADOPT XANDER'S OLDER BROTHER SILAS.
LOOK WHO IS HERE. WHEN I WAS YOUNGER, I GREW UP
IN A PRETTY BROKEN HOME. NOW THAT I'M A PARENT, I WANT TO
GIVE BOTH OF THEM SOMETHING DIFFERENT.
THE THING I LOVE MOST ABOUT MAGIC IS ITS ABILITY TO SHOW
PEOPLE THAT NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE
OUR DECISIONS HAVE THE ABILITY TO CREATE MAGICAL MOMENTS.
BECAUSE OF THAT, WE SEE HOW LIVES CAN CHANGE AND GET BETTER.
TONIGHT I WANT TO BE A ROLE MODEL FOR THEM
I'M GOING TO SHOW MY FAMILY WHAT IT MEANS TO CHASE YOUR DREAMS.
WHAT'S UP, GUYS HOWIE, HOW ARE YOU
Howie: I SEEM TO BE OKAY. YOU DON'T GOT TO BE SCARED.
I GOT TO ADMIT AS CHEESY AS IT MIGHT SOUND MY LIFE HAS FELT
LIKE A DECK OF PLAYING CARDS A DECK THAT I THOUGHT WAS GOING
TO STAY IN THIS PERFECT ORDER. LIFE GETS A LITTLE MORE MESSY
THAN THIS. AS YOU GUYS JUST SAW, I'M NOW
THE FATHER OF TWO ADOPTED TODDLERS
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE THANK YOU.
IF THERE'S ONE THING THAT I
LEARNED, IT'S THAT SOME REALLY INCREDIBLE MAGIC CAN ACTUALLY
COME FROM SOME OF LIFE'S REALLY MESSY MOMENTS.

Howie: OF ALL THE FACE UP CARDS, TEN WERE BLACK.
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 -- DID I MISS ONE
10 I CAN'T COUNT.
I'M A MAGICIAN DOESN'T MEAN I'M GOOD AT MATH.
THAT FEELS A LITTLE MORE IMPOSSIBLE, RIGHT?
Howie: IT'S BEEN IMPOSSIBLE FROM THE MINUTE I GOT UP HERE.
KEEP READING. Howie: THAT'S MY FACE
I ALWAYS DO THAT EIGHT OF THOSE BLACK CARDS WERE
CLUBS. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 CLUBS.
Howie: NO. COME ON
HOWIE, YOU MIXED THESE CARDS, RIGHT?
Howie: LIKE A TODDLER. I TOLD YOU THEY MIGHT HAVE
LANDED EXACTLY THE WAY THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO.
READ THIS LAST PAGE. Howie: AND ODDLY ENOUGH ALL
OF THE RED CARDS WERE HEARTS LET'S CHECK
HEART, HEART, HEART, HEART HOLD ON.
SERIOUSLY? 10 OF DIAMONDS
YOU KNOW WHAT, NOTHING COVERS UP A MISTAKE LIKE CUTE KIDS
CARRIE, BRING OUT THE CUTE KIDS. GUYS, CAN YOU WAVE TO EVERYBODY?

AS WE TALK ABOUT HOW SPECIAL TODAY IS, DO YOU KNOW TODAY'S
DATE Howie: YEAH, IT'S THE 10th OF
AUGUST, 2021 REMEMBER IF EVEN ONE OF THESE
CARDS WOULD HAVE LANDED DIFFERENTLY, IT WOULD HAVE
CHANGED EVERYTHING SORRY ABOUT YOUR FACE.

THAT IS GOING TO BE ONE AMAZING NIGHT, TOMORROW AT
8:00/7:00 CENTRAL! NEXT TONIGHT IS A COMEDIAN WITH
A UNIQUE, AND VERY FUNNY TAKE ON HER HERITAGE
SHE IS GINA BRILLON. SHE'S SOLIDIFYING MY LOVE FOR
COMEDY I WAS MARRIED AT GOTHIC COMEDY
CLUB IN NEW YORK CITY. IT'S STILL ONE OF THE BEST DAYS
OF MY LIFE ONLY SECOND TO MY SON BEING
BORN, AND "AGT." MY LIFE TOTALLY CHANGED BEING A
MOM. THERE'S A FIRE IN ME MY MOM LIT.
IT'S NOT JUST FOR ME I'M THE EXAMPLE.
THAT'S OLD MOMMY SHE WAS SKINNY
MY HUSBAND IS A GREAT GUY. I HAVE GOT ME A 1978 CAUCASIAN
TO WATCH IT WITH HIM AND SEE HIS FACE LIGHT UP, AND THEN YOU SEE
THAT MOMENT, AND YOU GET TO TELL YOURSELF THIS -- THE PRIZE, THE
CHANCE TO PUT TOGETHER MY OWN SHOW IN VEGAS, I WANT TO SHOW MY
SON THAT DREAMS DO COME TRUE * HAIR TOSS *
* CHECK MY NAILS * * BABY, HOW YOU DOING *
* FEELING GOOD AS HELL * HELLO
OH, MY IT FEELS NICE TO BE HERE FOR YOU
GUYS I DO MISS HOME
I'M BORN AND RAISED IN THE SOUTH BRONX IN NEW YORK.
THANK YOU FELLOW GANGSTERS I LOVE WHERE I'M FROM.
I LOVE THE PEOPLE WHERE I'M FROM
A LOT OF THE GIRLS I GREW UP HAD THAT VERY THIC
ROSIE PEREZ, PUERTO RICAN ACCENT
LIKE THEY'D JUST WALK ABOUT SAYING, "YOU'RE SO STUPID,
STUPID." THAT'S ALL THEY ALL TALKED
I WAS JEALOUS. I WAS JEALOUS BECAUSE GUYS
THOUGHT THAT WAS CUTE WHEN I WAS GROWING UP, THEY THOUGHT THAT
ACCENT WAS CUTE, AND I DIDN'T HAVE IT SO I WAS JEALOUS
UNTIL I REALIZED, THAT AT SOME POINT, THAT GIRL HAS TO GET A
GROWN PERSON JOB AND THAT'S GOING TO BE AMAZING
CAN YOU IMAGINE YOU WALK IN A COURTROOM AND YOUR LAWYER IS
LIKE, BUT HE DIDN'T DID IT, YOUR HONOR.
NAH, CAUSE YOU'RE LOOKIN AT HIM LIKE HE'S GUILTY WHEN I TOLD YOU
HE DIDN'T DID IT DID I WIN YET?
I WON YET? I WON?
NO, YOU GOTTA PACIFICALLY TELL ME
THANK YOU FOR GETTING THE LAST PART
I TEASE, BUT I LOVE MY CULTURE WE TEASE
WE TEASE 'CAUSE WE LOVE. WE'RE BRUTBRUTAL
WE HOLD NO PUNCHES IT IS THE POINT TO WHERE YOUR
BIGGEST INSECURITY WILL BECOME YOUR NICKNAME.
YEAH IF YOU'RE CHUBBY, THEY CALL YOU
GORDITO. THAT MEANS FAT LITTLE KID.
THAT'S WHAT THAT MEANS THAT'S NOT A NICKNAME.
THAT'S A SENTENCE. I WAS CHUBBY, BUT THEY USED TO
CALL ME "CHULETA" WHICH MEANS "PORK CHOP."
I WOULD HAVE GOTTEN MAD, BUT EVERY TIME THEY SAID THAT, I WAS
LIKE "THAT SOUNDS DELICIOUS. I BELIEVE YOU JUST CALLED ME A
SNACK. I'VE NEVER REALLY BEEN SUPER
SENSITIVE ABOUT THE WEIGHT THING, UNTIL I DATED A SKINNY
GUY. THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH
SKINNY GUYS. SKINNY GUYS NEED LOVE TOO.
IF YOU'RE THINK LIKE ME OR TALL AND YOU DATE A SKINNY GUY,
PREPARE YOURSELF BECAUSE AT SOME POINT DURING THE
COURSE OF YOUR RELATIONSHIP, HE IS GONNA LOOK AT YOU LIKE HE
WANTS TO PICK YOU UP DON'T DO IT.
DON'T FALL FOR HIS CONFIDENCE. CAUSE HE'S GONNA LOOK AT YOU
WITH ALL THE CONFIDENCE IN THE WORLD.
HE'S GONNA LOOK AT YOU LIKE I'M GONNA PICK YOU UP.
AND THEN YOU GOTTA LOOK AT HIM AND GO, NAH, THAT'S NOT A GOOD
IDEA MMM.
NO
YOU'RE GONNA HURT YOURSELF AND MY FEELINGS ALL IN ONE MOVE.
LIKE THIS WOULD GO SO MUCH BETTER IF I PICK YOU UP.
COME HERE. LOOK AT HOW CUTE YOU ARE."
THANK YOU SO MUCH. THAT'S MY TIME, GUYS
Terry: GINA BRILLON SIMON?
Simon: GINA, YOU'RE VERY FUNNY.
THE ONLY THING I WOULD SAY IS I SENSE A LOT OF NERVES WITH YOU
TONIGHT. REALLY?
Heidi: I DIDN'T. Sofia: NO
Heidi: BOO. DON'T COME AT MY BOO.
Sofia: I ADORE YOU. I THINK YOU'RE VERY FUNNY.
WAS THIS BETTER THAN THE FIRST AUDITION
NO BECAUSE OF NERVES THAT'S MY HONEST OPINION
THAT'S RIGHT. Howie: HUMOR IS SUBJECTIVE.
I THOUGHT IT WAS AS GOOD IF NOT BETTER THAN THE LAST TIME.
I KNOW YOU'VE BEEN PUTTING IN THE WORK
I'VE SEEN YOU AT THE CLUBS AROUND TOWN.
I THINK TONIGHT IT PAID OFF. THANK YOU.
Heidi: I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU AND I'M SITTING HERE
AND THINKING TO MYSELF THE ENTIRE TIME I WANT LIKE A LATINA
BUDDY COMEDY WITH YOU AND SOFIA. WE SHOULD DO IT.
Heidi: I THINK THAT'S THE BIGGEST COMPLIMENT YOU CAN GIVE
A COMEDIAN IS YOU MAKE US ALL LAUGH AND THAT'S WHAT YOU DID.
Sofia: HEIDI WAS LAUGHING AND SHE NEVER LAUGHS SO MUCH
I LAUGHED AT EVERY JOKE. YOU'RE SO FUNNY.
I'M LATINA EVERYTHING YOU SAID WAS TRUE
I LOVE YOU THANK YOU

Terry: HOWIE? Howie: I STILL AGREE WITH
WHAT I SAID AT THE AUDITION. THIS IS WHAT AMERICA NEEDS
THIS IS WHAT WE SHOULD ALL DO. THAT BEING SAID, I THINK THE
IDEA IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE ACTUAL MUSIC
Heidi: WHAT Sofia: THE GRINCH IS BACK.
Howie: I FOUND THE SONG A LITTLE UNDERWHELMING.
Heidi: I DISAGREE I THOUGHT THIS WAS A LOT OF FUN.
[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE I THOUGHT IT WAS A LOT OF FUN.
WHY ARE YOU BEING GRUMPY AGAIN Howie: I'M NOT GRUMPY.
Heidi: WE'RE ALL MORE ALIKE THAN WE'RE DIFFERENT
THERE NEEDS TO BE MORE ACTS LIKE THESE GUYS TO SHOW US.
Terry: SOFIA? Sofia: IT WAS AMAZING, THE
ENERGY I THINK YOU GUYS ARE UNIQUE.
I THINK YOU'RE IN THE RIGHT PLACE.
I THINK, I DIDNYOU KNOW, IT'S GO BE GREAT FOR YOU GUYS.
I DON'T CARE WHAT HOWIE SAYS. Simon: YOU LIKE EVERY ACT
TONIGHT. AS PEOPLE I LIKED EVERYBODY.
THE DIFFERENCE, HOWEVER, BETWEEN THE GROUP WE HAD EARLIER 1ACORD
WHICH WAS A MOMENT COMPARED TO THIS WHICH WASN'T A MOMENT, I
CAN UNDERSTAND WHERE HOWIE WAS COMING FROM.
YOU'RE SO LIKABLE. YOU ARE TALENTED
I JUST DON'T THINK TO ME THE SONG WAS GOOD ENOUGH
Terry: CAN YOU DESCRIBE WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO BE ONE OF A
KIND WE LIKE TO BELIEVE THAT EVERY
SINGLE ONE OF YOU OUT THERE IS ONE OF A KIND.

NEVER MADE IT THROUGH. BUT HE DIDN'T GIVE UP AND THIS
SEASON HE'S FINALLY HERE HE IS SETH WARD.
EVER SINCE I WAS A LITTLE KID I ONLY WANTED TO BE A PERFORMER.
I WAS ALWAYS HUNGRY TO FIND A BIGGER AND BETTER AUDIENCE
THE FIRST TIME I SAW "AGT" I WANTED TO BE THERE
MY FIRST AUDITION BACK IN 2018 DIDN'T GO AS PLANNED.
Sofia: WHAT IS THAT ONCE YOU MAKE THAT DECISION
TO FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS, YOU CAN'T STOP
THAT'S WHY I CAME BACK AGAIN, AND AGAIN.
Howie: NO Terry: DON'T TRY THIS AT
HOME AND AGAIN AFTER THAT.
NOW I'M FINALLY HERE AT THE LIVE SHOW.
Sofia: "A" FOR EFFORT. AT THIS POINT THE SKY IS THE
LIMIT. MY JOURNEY THROUGH "AGT" FEELS

I'M HAPPY FOR YOU, BUT I DIDN'T GET IT.
Terry: SIMON? Simon: YES, TERRY, IT WAS
ABSOLUTELY, BLOODY AWFUL Heidi: NOT ALL OF IT.
Simon: IT WAS WE CAN NOW OFFICIALLY CALL THE
SHOW "AMERICA DOES NOT HAVE TALENT."
Terry: SETH WARD, DO YOU HAVE ANY ADVICE FOR ANYBODY WHO MAY
BE GIVING UP ON THEIR "AGT" DREAM?

WARD VOTE ONLINE OR USE THE "AGT"

THIS NEXT ACT IS -- WELL, TERRIFYING
HE'S AN ESCAPE ARTIST WHO LIKES TO PUSH THE BOUNDARIES OF DANGER
WAY BEYOND THEIR LIMITS. AND PEOPLE, DO NOT TRY WHAT
YOU'RE ABOUT TO SEE AT HOME. HERE'S MATT JOHNSON.
I'VE BEEN PERFECTING MY CRAFT FOR 30 YEARS, BUT, WHEN YOU DO
WHAT I DO, A LOT OF THINGS GO WRONG.
I WAS WORKING ON A DANGEROUS ESCAPE AND I HUNG MYSELF AND
DROWNED AT THE SAME TIME PEOPLE SAY WHY DO I DO IT?
IT'S LIKE PEOPLE WHO BUNGEE JUMP OR SKYDIVE
YOU DON'T FEEL LIKE YOU'RE LIVING UNLESS YOU DO SOMETHING
THAT PUTS YOU ON THE EDGE. I DON'T DO THIS BECAUSE I WANT
TO DIE I DO THIS BECAUSE I WANT TO
LIVE Simon: THAT COULD HAVE BEEN
CATASTROPHIC, BUT YOU'RE BRILLIANT.
FOUR YESES TONIGHT I'VE CREATED A DEVICE
THAT IS SO DANGEROUS IT ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIES ME
I LOOK DEATH STRAIGHT IN THE FACE AND, IF I DON'T MAKE IT,
THEN YOU'RE GOING TO CARRY ME OFF IN A BODY BAG.
A YEAR AND A HALF AGO I ALMOST KILLED MYSELF PERFORMING AN
ESCAPE I DROWNED AND HUNG MYSELF AT THE
SAME TIME AND WAS RUSHED TO THE TRAUMA UNIT.
I WAS AT DEATH'S DOOR. THIS EVENING I'LL BE AT DEATH'S
DOOR AGAIN, QUITE LITERALLY. LET'S BEGIN.
I'M BEING CHAINED AND PADLOCKED TO THIS DOOR BY THE NECK, BY THE
CHEST AND BY THE WAIST I'LL HAVE TO USE A SINGLE LOCK
PICK TO MAKE MY ESCAPE LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, JUDGES,
YOU REALIZE THIS IS LETHAL WHEN YOU NOTICE OVER THERE
THERE'S A BUCKET OF SAND, IT'S ATTACHED BY A ROPE TO A CHAIN
SAW. WHEN THE ESCAPE STARTS, THE SAND
WILL LEAVE THE BUCKET. THE BUCKET WILL GET LIGHTER AND
THE CHAIN SAW WILL GET HEAVIER, BRINGING IT CLOSER AND CLOSER TO
MY FACE. I HAVE TO PICK THE LOCKS AND
MAKE MY ESCAPE BEFORE THE CHAIN SAW GOES STRAIGHT THROUGH THE
MIDDLE OF MY SKULL LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, JUDGES,
WISH ME LUCK START THE SAW.
START THE SAND *

[ CHEERS AND APPLAUSE
AGH Terry: MATT JOHNSON, ARE YOU

MAKING THROUGHOUT THE ACT WERE A BIT OVER THE TOP THOUGH.
YOU KNOW, IT MADE IT A LITTLE HAMMY FOR ME
THE UGH, UGH. Howie: WHAT ARE THE NOISES
YOU MAKE WHEN THERE'S A CHAIN SAW HEADING TO YOUR FACE, SIMON?
Sofia: I'M GLAD YOU'RE OKAY BECAUSE I'M NOT OKAY
EVERY TIME YOU COME IT GETS WORSE AND WORSE.
WHERE IS IT GOING? IT'S HORRIFIC?
Terry: HOWIE? Howie: HE'S TAUGHT US ALL, IF
AT FIRST YOU DON'T SUCCEED IN KILLING YOURSELF, TRY, TRY
AGAIN. YET YOU FAILED AND THANK GOD YOU
FAILED I CAN'T BELIEVE TONIGHT'S SHOW
