When Ezra snapped a selfie with her mom at the mall, she uncovered a dark secret about her neighbor, Jerry, that changed everything.
Ezra and her husband Bernard had recently moved into a new home and were charmed by their neighbors, Jerry and Lola. However, Jerry’s constant criticisms of their lawn and Bernard’s truck began to grate on them. Jerry’s snide comments about their coffee and garden left Ezra feeling self-conscious.
One day, while shopping with her mom, Ezra took selfies that later revealed Jerry in the background handing out leaflets. Bernard spotted Jerry in the photo and realized the neighbor’s polished facade was hiding a troubling truth.
Confronting Jerry, Ezra showed him the photo. Jerry confessed he had lost his job a year and a half ago and had been hiding it. His wife, Lola, was shocked and upset.
With the truth out, Ezra and Bernard felt relieved, knowing their neighbors’ judgments came from a place of insecurity. “Well, that wasn’t how I imagined it,” Bernard remarked.
