The Tortoise and the Heir

It’s been decades since Timothy Tortoise’s fabled race.  His overconfident nap-taking competitor is long gone, and Timothy is alas in his final years.  His shrewd investments have turned his fame into a vast fortune, but having outlived all of his friends and family the time has come for him to choose an heir to leave it to.  Timothy devises a series of contests open to all of the children in the land, with the winner gaining his fortune and the benefit of his mentorship in his final days.  This Apple original takes its time, in an inspiring underdog tale that’s part Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, part It’s a Mad Mad Mad Mad World and part The Devil’s Advocate.
