Plot[]
A phony mentalist murders his greedy assistant and hires a new assistant – a con woman named Jessica. Foster Prentiss is a skillful performer who has never had any true psychic ability until he touches two lovely femme fatales... and witnesses their murderous acts.
Summary[]
Foster Prentiss, a magician and phony mentalist, murders his greedy assistant and hires a new assistant named Tara. With the assistance of a computer hook-up and a tiny earpiece, Foster convinces audiences of his abilities as a mentalist. When Tara threatens to expose him if she doesn't get more money, Foster makes her "disappear" forever.
Later, Foster meets a con woman named Jessica, and hires her as his new assistant. She has her sights set on Ingrid Garfield, a wealthy woman who is very frantic and wants to communicate with her daughter, whom she believes is dead. Ingrid is in the audience at Foster's show when, for some reason, the computer and earpiece suddenly go dead. Foster tries to wing it. He accidentally touches Violet MacReady, the night shift duty nurse, and has a vision of her being held hostage by Laz Swan, whom she kills.
At his next show, he touches Tiffany, the sorority girl, and sees her kill Jay Roma, the sleazy videographer. Jessica shows Foster the biographies of Jay Roma and Violet MacReady, and tells him that they can use this information to their own advantage. When Foster touches Jessica, he sees her kill her boyfriend Logan Cale and harvest his organs. She doesn't fear Foster's new gift – she sees it as an opportunity and tells Foster that they're going to be very, very rich.
Opening segment[]
"Mentalism is a performing art whose practitioners demonstrate highly developed mental and intuitive abilities such as telepathy, clairvoyance and mind control. Foster Prentiss, the Amazing Mysterium, possesses no such skill. He is a complete and utter fraud. Unfortunately, there's nothing phony about murder. Foster will stop at nothing to get what he wants and must put on a performance of a lifetime. But maybe this time, the ruse is on him."
