The Carbonaro Effect - "Just a Milker" - Thursday Dec. 4, at 10:00 p.m. (ET/PT)

In each episode of The Carbonaro Effect, Michael Carbonaro - a magician by trade but a trickster at heart - amazes and amuses ordinary unsuspecting people in various locations and situations. Posing as an ordinary bartender or a seemingly unremarkable salesman, Michael astonishes unknowing citizens by turning a tuft of hair into a puppy or pouring 12 pints of beer from an ordinary bottle. Whether they are alone or with their friends, everyone is left stunned and delighted, even though they have no idea what just hit them.

Tonight, Michael fishes for trouble in a toy store with special pop-up books and at a health food store he makes a woman's day by showing her how to milk almonds. Later, at a museum exhibit, an Egyptian mummy causes an employee to question ancient curses.
