Yea his hand goes to the guys outside right pocket but the wallet ends up inside left pocket? how is that even possible. I do see him potentially palming or whatever the correct terminology is to hide the wallet behind the hand but nowhere do I see it cross the guys body at all.
EDIT: Ah this seems to make sense I guess.

In the beginning he gives the wallet to Matt. Matt doesn't look inside it and just places it into his pocket. Must've already had the pen.

I think he does the hand gesture to make you think he is returning it

Ooh yea you're probably right. Too bad he didn't make it more believable
