Muz Monthly Topic: Liars and fools

Write a fiction where your character is forced to confront falsehoods of some stripe or another. This could be as inoccuous as a prank played upn your character by a friendly face, or a desperate ploy to manipulate your character by a hated enemy. How does your characetr react to such an event? What acts do they take to get even, or to set the record straight? Or are they usually the ones who play others as fools, manipulating them into tragedy or playing tricks to make them seem gullible? Character development and evolution is encouraged, and descriptive writing is always welcomed.
