Plot
Having already achieved some level of notoriety for their first invention, four ambitious inventors form an exclusive club of MENSA wannabes known as the "Think Tank."

Perhaps if these brainstorming geniuses can finally perfect the game of "frictionless pool" there may be a glimmer of hope for Jon's Pool Hall after all.
