A man whose made his career in the manipulation and entertainment of other people, whether it be by the slide of hand, a tap of the shoulder, the picking of a lock, or the usage of another persons voice, gets sent into an equestria where the humans are non-sentient. They are treated as common house animals and are viewed as such. Will his lifetime mastering the art of deception be enough to secure his survival, or will he end up on a lab table?
(Inspired by a story called, "Chains" and a movie called "Now You See Me"...watch it.)
