Chapter 39
“And now here we are. Max will turn up any time now. I'm not sure if you had actually forgotten anything that I've spoken about but I hope listening to this has helped. I know about the things I’ve told you because they've happened the way I planned them. I know my brother. I’ve been watching him. Studying him. Learning everything I need to know to win this game. I know how he’s going to react. When he runs I know where he’ll go.
“I’ve got this gadget here that blocks electronic signals. Max will turn up carrying a phone. He’ll call for back up at some point but I don’t want that to be too early. I need time. So, turn this on and he's all alone, he can’t use his phone. I’ve planned this game to the smallest detail.
“And now we come to the beginning of the end. I’m still sitting here in this abandoned warehouse, in this rest room, preparing for what magicians call The Prestige. You’ll remember where we were when I started. This is the world I have influenced. The one I have created. A world of my design. I hope you understand why I’ve done what I’ve done.”
