Plot[]
The guys at school are having trouble figuring out what girls want in a guy, so Scott convinces Leslie to allow Leonard and himself to perform a magic act for her birthday party, so they can find out for themselves. So after the act, they do a little eavesdropping, not realizing that the girls are onto them and are planning a little surprise for them.

- This episode is available in a poor English VHS recording. A widescreen English version is also available, but nearly 30 seconds at the end of the second act had to use part of the VHSrip since the stream messed up.
