To begin with, the magician proposes an experiment with playing cards that brings together all the main families of mentalism: - Telepathy: communication at a distance by thought, - Clairvoyance: knowledge of things by means other than the five senses, - Precognition: forecasting of future events that cannot be deduced from knowledge of the present (prediction), - Telekinesis: influence of the mind on matter.

The magician invites a spectator to a card game with hyper-simple rules, a kind of "War (card game)". The deck is clearly shuffled by the spectator beforehand.

The "exact" protocol of the "Collectors" principle as taught to Dominique by Derek Dingle is scrupulously respected here, namely: - The four Aces are placed face up aside at the beginning of the trick. - Three cards are chosen, and are lost in the deck. - The four Aces are put on top of the deck. - And without shuffling or any other manipulation, the Aces "collect" the chosen cards, i.e. they are found face down in between the four face up aces!

A spectator chooses a card, which is lost in the deck. Two other cards are placed face-up in the deck, with clearly about 15 cards between them.
