Daniel (as heard in our Magic: the Gathering episode) returns to teach the Antiques Freaks about a different kind of magic - the kind stored in ancient tomes that can only be found through secret covenants with ancient societies of tricksters. Y’know, magicians. Books with magician tricks in them. We swear we’re not doing real magic. Honest.
