In the premiere episode of Mind Control with Derren Brown, Derren demonstrates his astounding gift with a number of unsuspecting subjects. In New Jersey s Palisades Mall, more than 300 shoppers simultaneously stop cold in their tracks and raise their right arms reacting to a seemingly innocuous shopping announcement made by Derren over the public address system. While shopping in New York City, Derren uses blank white paper to purchase fish, groceries, and a $4,500.00 platinum ring with ease. By simply approaching random people on the street and asking for directions, Derren gets them to willingly hand over their car keys and wallets. By asking a few innocuous questions, Derren is able to determine, within one dollar, how much several strangers on the street have in their wallets. Derren meets three single women at a club and is able to sense and deliver the pick-up line that works for each one.
