Synopsis
Tony is a young boy who gets $15 for his birthday. He asks his father Steven to take him to an out-of-the-way magic shop so that he can spend the money. The mysterious owner of the shop, Mr. Dulong, takes an interest in the boy and agrees to teach him everything he knows about magic. Despite his father's protests, Tony is invited to step into a cabinet by Mr. Dulong. Ignoring his father, Tony steps inside and promptly disappears. When Mr. Dulong himself disappears, Steven is shocked. The next day Tony comes out of the cabinet and acts like nothing happened. Tony's parents realize their son has become a master of black magic, and that they are helpless in the face of his dark power. (TV.com)
