Cousin shows up with dramatic stories and a plan to repay kindness with chores, then proceeds to treat the apartment like an all-you-can-eat buffet and personal boutique. Groceries vanish, laundry gets repurposed, and the place slowly morphs into a pop-up thrift shop operated by someone who skipped the orientation.

Entitled guests know how to work the system. They see an open couch and start running a mental inventory of everything not nailed down. Generosity turns into a game of resource management, where each chore performed is treated as a ticket to raid the cupboards and test-drive sentimental clothing. The promise to help out dissolves into a pattern of empty fridges and missing shirts, leaving hosts with the joy of watching kindness downgraded to a shared economy experiment.
