An imagined PIN, read one digit at a time.
A spectator invents a PIN on her own phone and gives only a fragment, and the performer reveals it digit by digit in a lie-detector frame. There are three routines plus a Night Writer kicker. It uses only public-domain arithmetic, and only imagined PINs throughout.
