Concept
This mechanic can fix your car through the use of card sleights.
Script
LARSS, 23, brings his car to the mechanic to fix after an accident. BOB, 45, is towing his car behind the kid's.
"What happened here?" ELLE,18, asks the men. Both of them look a bit suspicious at the young mechanic(?).
"He hit my car" both of them chant at the same time, pointing fingers one at the other.
ELLE giggles, "Children." then tells the men to follow her inside her office.
INSIDE THE OFFICE
All are seated. We see pictures of ELLE with people from important car companies. On the desk there are 2 decks of cards. CLOSE UP on the playing cards, then FOCUS on the face of the two men looking at each other.
ELLE takes one of the packets and begins asking one of the men personal questions about the car. How many times he has fallen asleep in it, how many women he has taken inside, how many times he has driven drunk.
"THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS! WHY..." BOB stands up from his chair, flabbergasted. We see him eye ELLE. ELLE then changes her view towards a photo. BOB looks at the photo too.
"You know who's that?" ELLE asks. "That's the chairmen of Michelle. You know who Michelle is?"
CLOSE UP on BOB's lips. They don't move. FAST SHIFT to LARSS's lips. He's grinning.
"Yeah. I knew a girl named Michelle once. Not much of a kisser."
SHIFT to ELLE's lips. She smiles. ZOOM OUT to view of all three.
"Men, if you do not trust my services, then please leave this room." None move. "Now please, answer my questions. It's important for me to know as much about your car as possible so I can know for sure that there is no other car like it. SO when I begin fixing it, I won't end up fixing someone else's car by mistake."
Continuation
The girl then gets a detailed description of all the broken parts, draws them individually on each card and proceeds to fix the cars by color changing the broken drawings into good drawings.
And just like that, the two men witness a miracle when they find their cars in a better shape than they were before.
You can do the fixing part visually split screen with the color changes (CGI) or you can just have the sketch focus on the card sleights.

Notes
It doesn't have to be a mechanic. It can be a doctor, a plumber, a psychologist. The idea is that something that is broken is drawn on the cards and then fixed through card sleights.
I am more concerned about the "drawing each individual card". If a woman like her exists in this world, that can fix cars through the use of decks, it would be nice to have a character that can draw these cards in a second.
This way you can also showcase a second art form - card design. You can even make this into a commercial for a deck of cards. First the deck is created and then it is showcased in parallel with fixing the cars.
It would be a great commercial for a Car Company x Deck of Cards. Can turn out looking really good.
This sort of character I would use inside of a detective novel. Someone that has this sort of power and can get such sensitive information out of somebody is definitely of great use for any government.
Would be nice to see this done in an indie style, not with a big budget and all. With a background made from cartbord, a stickman drawing of the chairman from Michelle - you know, very childish. It would give the entire sketch a more magical aura.
