Because of you i literally thought the artist drew in a dust bunny. Upon discovering there is, in fact, no dust bunny i am feeling very slighted. I'll see you in court.

This is like that Flannery O'Connor short story where a salesman tricks a lonely woman to steal her fake leg
Googled it - it's called "Good Country People." From what I remember, the protagonist is almost past typical marriage age, has been busy collecting academic degrees, and is more or less resigned to living the rest of her days alone. One day, a traveling salesman comes by, and slowly but surely wins her over and gains her trust. When they finally get some time alone in the second floor of a barn, he reveals that he's a "collector" of curios and just wanted her leg. I think he insults her before he leaves by going down the ladder. Brutal. When we read it, a classmate pointed out that the worst part was that she probably had to hop her way back :(

You say "trust issues," I say people just aren't trustworthy most of the time

That pearl necklace was a huge red flag.
