Output:
Charles Corky Withers has just failed in his first attempt at professional magic. His mentor Merlin E. J. Andre says that he needs to have a better show business gimmick. A year later, Corky comes back as a combination magician and ventriloquist with a foulmouthed dummy named Fats and is a huge success. His powerful agent Ben Greene is on the verge of signing Corky for his own television show, but Corky bails out for the Catskills, where he grew up, claiming to be afraid of success. In truth, he does not want to take the TV networks required medical examination because doctors might find out that he suffers from severe issues, and that even offstage he cannot control Fats a manifestation of Corkys Id. In the Catskills, he reunites with his highschool crush, Peggy Ann Snow, who is stuck in a passionless marriage with Corkys friend from high school, Duke. A magic trick with a deck of cards charms Peg into thinking they are soulmates. She and Corky have sex, which sparks the jealousy not only of Peggys toughguy husband but also the dummy Fats. Greene arrives unexpectedly, having tracked Corky down. After a tense confrontation, in which Greene discovers the truth about Corkys mental state, the agent demands that Corky get help. Fats, however, convinces Corky to kill Greene. Corky does this by using Fats hard, wooden head. He then removes all of Greenes identification and drags the corpse to the lake. When Corky tries to dispose of the body, however, Greene suddenly lunges at him, still alive. Corky, after an intense fight, manages to drown him. The next morning, Fats becomes even more possessive and jealous when Corky says that he plans to leave Fats behind so that he and Peggy can honeymoon by themselves. Duke returns from his trip earlier than expected. He suspects his wife cheated on him and wants to have a talk with Corky on the lake. Rather than confront him, Duke awkwardly confides to Corky that he loves Peggy and is worried about losing her. Duke suddenly spots Greenes body on the edge of the lake. They row toward it. Duke, believing Greene could still be alive, sends Corky to get help. Curious, he decides to search Corkys cabin. Fats kills him with help from Corky. The dummy stabs Duke while Corky is covered by a curtain behind him. An increasingly deranged Corky manages to pull himself together and persuade Peg to run away with him. But she insists on waiting to tell Duke face to face. She thinks everything is fine until Fats comes alive and reveals that Corkys card trick is only a ruse he uses to seduce women, and that Peg is only the latest of his conquests. Repulsed, she rejects Corky and locks herself in her bedroom. Fats says that, from this point on, he will make the decisions in Corkys life. He immediately asserts this new authority by ordering Corky to kill Peg. Corky, turning on the charm and using Fats voice, apologizes to Peggy from in front of her locked door. A short while later, Corky returns with a bloodstained knife. Fats seems pleased until it is revealed that the blood on the knife is Corkys, who has fatally stabbed himself so that he wont kill anyone else. As a result, Fats also feels faint. They wonder which of them will die first. Moments later, Peggy returns to their cabin, happily calling out that she has changed her mind and has decided to run away with Corky after all. As she speaks, her voice changes into a caricature that sounds like a female Fats.
