 Wilder and Wallace are brothers and pyrokinetics. Ever since childhood they ve been able to start fires with their minds but following a tragedy in which they accidentally killed a man, the brothers have grown up very differently. Wilder has become a regular 9-5 workaday joe but Wallace performs his feats with a traveling circus. When the circus comes to Wilder s home town Wallace starts coming on strong to Wilder s wife, Vida who, ironically, is a slight pyromaniac.
