After 40 years of marriage, my wife Grace was finally enjoying her retirement — and her favorite pastime: movies. But one night, her excitement turned to heartbreak when a guard at the theater cruelly told her, “This movie isn’t for people like you.” She came home in tears.

That guard? Matt — an old high school classmate who once asked Grace out and never got over her polite rejection. I was furious. So I went to the theater, casually struck up a conversation, and got him to admit everything — on tape. The next morning, I sent the recording to the theater manager. Within hours, Matt was fired. They apologized and gave us free movie tickets. A few nights later, Grace and I walked into the theater, greeted with smiles. We held hands through the film, knowing justice had been served. And as the credits rolled, she whispered, “Thank you for standing up for me.”
