The following facts found by the court and procedural history are relevant to our resolution of these claims. On July 23, 2007, the plaintiffs and the defendants entered into a lease agreement for the defendants’ single-family home in New Canaan. The agreement provided for the plaintiffs to take possession of the home on August 31, 2007, and for the lease to terminate on August 30, 2008, with monthly rent payments of $4800. At the inception of the lease, the plaintiffs paid to the defendants a “security deposit” of $4800,5 the first month’s rent of $4800 and the last month’s rent of $4800. The defendants opened checking and savings accounts at Wachovia Bank, depositing the “security deposit” and last month’s rent into the savings account, and the first month’s rent into the checking account. By October 1, 2007, the defendants had transferred $4800 from the savings account to the checking account, which was then used to satisfy the defendants’ obligation to the *304real estate agent who had arranged the leasing of the home to the plaintiffs. On November 6, 2007, the defendants transferred another $3000 from the savings account to the checking account and immediately thereafter paid from the checking account a veterinary bill for that same amount of $3000. After making those transfers from the savings account to the checking account, the savings account was left with a balance of $1812.32.
