Scarlet Monte Red (Gimmick and Online Instructions) by Malcolm Norton

The Scarlet Pimpernel Strikes Again!

A master of escape & disguise the Scarlet Pimpernel escapes time and time again; he exchanges places with his guards and finally, vanishes completely!

The first phase goes as follows; placing one of the guards off to one side to keep a lookout. The Scarlet Pimpernel is contained within his jail cell (your hands) between two guards. Before your audience's very eyes, the Scarlet Pimpernel escapes!

All that's left inside your hands are the guards and the card first placed down is the on the run Pimpernel.

The second phase, after running amok, the Scarlet Pimpernel is caught again. After placing him between the two guards in your hand, he once again escapes!

The guards capture the Scarlet Pimpernel for a final time; leaving all three guards with him, within a blink of an eye he escapes. Place the three guards, which were once four cards, into your spectator's hand. The Scarlet Pimpernel is free! Completely gone, only to turn up wherever you want.
