Also there are Perry and Della, as all three are supporters of the charity. Kate Ford, an assistant with an arrogant attitude, tells David that she is, from now on, going to be the star of an illusion in which an assistant is raised in a glass coffin only to disappear when the coffin is opened up in mid-air (while the assistant climbs out before the coffin is raised.)
