Story

Born with two stomachs, Patrick Smash suffers from severe and uncontrolled gas formation. This ability of his was revealed thirty seconds after birth. As they grow older, Patrick’s "gas attacks" become more saturated, which causes inconvenience to loved ones. As a result, the boy’s father leaves the family. Patrick's misfortune makes him a black sheep in class and he becomes vulnerable to bullies. However, among his classmates, young Smash still finds a friend - Alan A. Allen, a crazy red-haired geek who also suffers from an ailment - anosmia (lack of smell).

When visiting the school by opera singer Sir Osgood, Patrick does not stand up and makes an obscene sound, which shame the school. This becomes his worst day in life. However, Patrick is not discouraged. He gathers his strength and pays off with a school bully Damon, putting gas in his face. Alan does not leave his friend in trouble and makes shorts specially for him with a Thunder in Pants suitcase, which can absorb a daily supply of gases and later eliminate it. This is becoming the best day in Patrick’s life. Smash believes that he is close to his dream of becoming an astronaut. Suddenly without saying a word, Alan leaves. In search of a red-haired friend, Patrick toured with Osgood around the world. In one of the countries he is found by American special agents, with whom Alan appears to have left. It turns out that the young child prodigy is working for the States , developing a scheme to help astronauts stuck in space.
