Being an inventor, isn't easy.

Being an inventor that's an earth pony, is even harder.

Being and inventor, that's an earth pony, and who also happens to live in Trottingham, would seem impossible.

But somehow Gearhead managed to pull it off.

Let the story of how his life became what it was today, what he faced, what he overcame, and what he gained as an inventor gone teacher unfold before you.

The Flim-Flam Brothers fully anticipated a couple of failures every now and then. It's not like it mattered. After all, there was still tons of opportunity to go around, right?

Not exactly. The little song-and-dance cider business never really panned out. After a nasty argument stemming from a particularly embarrassing failure, the two brothers decided it was best to split up and take their ideas elsewhere.

Well, one brother has hit the jackpot, while the other hasn't been so lucky. And now, after a long period of silence, the brothers find themselves meeting face-to-face once again. Only this time, they're not strictly talking business.
