This Is How Feuds Get Started
The weirdest thing happened last night, or possibly early this morning. Someone took the cheapo wooden trellis that Marie and I used to grow snap peas last spring from right out front of our apartment. Stolen!
Though it didn't take us long to deduce that it wasn't some horticultural criminal mastermind we were dealing with... Marie noticed our trellis (we're sure - its the exact same trellis) in a flowerbed two houses away. Some grade-A, VMars-style sleuthing on her part, to be sure. So what are we supposed to do now? Risk an intra-neighborhood meltdown and steal it back?

The answer to your question is an obvious "yes". The real issue is what you should leave in the place of the purloined trellis.
