Here’s what happens:

The magician introduces a small pad of sticky notes. A spectator is invited to write their initials on one half of the top note. The magician then removes the note from the pad and tears it in half. A second spectator initials the other half of the torn slip of paper. The magician then visually fuses the torn pieces of the sticky note back together in the wrong direction. The middle is now on the outside, and the outsides are in the middle. The restored signed sticky note is then handed out for immediate examination.
