The Transcript For This Page
Panel 1
Two-shot of Reggie and Dr. Peña. Peña is still looking hostile, but is listening.
Reggie: In the late 20th Century there was a 'psychic' who claimed to be able to bend spoons and perform other miracles, with only the power of his mind.
Panel 2
Flashback panel. The psychic in question (make him lanky, with a long, clean-shaven face, large nose, and give him black bushy hair) is sitting in a chair with electrodes taped to his forehead and various circa-1975 technical gear and some very intent-looking scientists.
Caption (Reggie): 'When scientists examined him, they looked for what forces in nature could be at work.
Caption (Reggie): 'The idea that this guy was actively misleading them, never crossed their minds. They were mystified.
Panel 3
Medium shot of James Randi, the famous paranormal debunker, sitting in an audience with a few other men of various ages, with his arms crossed, one eyebrow raised (Spock-like), and a smirk. The other men also have similar (but not identical) expressions.
Caption (Reggie): 'When professional magicians watched his performance, they immediately saw how he did it.
Caption (Reggie): 'And brother, it wasn't his mind. It was no more than a very primitive sleight of hand.'
Panel 4
Back to the 'present.' Reggie spreads his arms as he makes his point.
Reggie: Great magicians headline at the Rio in Vegas, mediocre ones become 'psychics.'
