Story
The Joneses, appearing as an idyllic family consisting of Steve and Kate (parents), Jenn, and Mick (teenagers), move into a suburban neighborhood. Unbeknownst to their new neighbors, they are not what they seem; the truth about why they're living there is concealed. The Joneses embody the epitome of upper-middle-class materialism, with Kate being a trendsetter in designer fashion, Steve successful businessman with high-tech toys, and Jenn and Mick ruling their school with cool clothes and fast cars. However, the neighbors' attempts to keep up with them are met with unexpected revelations about this seemingly perfect family.
Summary
