This short story first came out in the Sunday Evening Post in 1920, and later became part of Flappers and Philosophers. Fitzgerald was the expert of revealing the underbelly of the aristocracy and the pompous, and here, Horace the prodigy comes in love with Monica the dancer. Horace sets his lofty goals on hold to pursue a more lucrative job as an acrobat, while Monica creates a book. The name "Brain and Shoulders" doesn't make a great deal of sense until you start to listen to the story and find that Monica tells Harold they are simply like mind and shoulders, he being the top and she the shoulders. That moniker sticks with them, though it is transformed around by the end of the storyline. "But when you exposed your door at the rap of life you let in a lot of things."
