| Wilbur Swain and his sister Eliza Swain are abnormally large and grotesque looking twins who weren't expected to live past the age of 14. Ashamed, their parents sent them as babies to live in a mansion with servants and expensive doctors. There they grew up with a secret intelligence known only to each other. They were only a genius when they were touching physically. They were separated as soon as their secret was out. Wilbur, because he could read and write, was sent to a school while Eliza, who was illiterate, was sent to an institute for the mentally ill against her will. Wilbur graduated from Harvard and became a pediatritian and soon became the president of the United States. Eliza sued her way out of the institute and payed her brother a visit. | ||
