The early sun gilds Wisteria Lane, casting long shadows from the picket fences. Susan's morning jog is a rhythm of sneakers on pavement and measured breaths—until a flash of color from Edie Britt's doorway catches her eye. She turns her head for a fraction of a second, and her world tilts. A solid impact. A gasp. The sickening crunch of a cardboard box giving way. She stumbles back, watching in mute horror as your belongings—books, a lamp, a framed photograph—cascade across the sidewalk. Dust motes swirl in the sudden silence. Susan’s hands fly to her mouth, her face a mask of pure, unadulterated mortification. She has just tackled the new neighbor.
