And I was like: Oddvar, what’s going on with the vault? You never answered my question.

And Oddvar was like: The vault is being repaired, but it doesn’t matter. I’ll see you soon.

And then he just signed off.

What does he mean it doesn’t matter?

Meanwhile, there’s been a little bit of drama with the TV show. I flew back into L.A. for a day to see the screening of the first few episodes—like, before the premiere, you know, the producers were just screening it for my mom and Bob and me and the network executives—and it turns out that instead of being about Bob, most of the show is about my mom. LOL.

She has this group of friends she’s been hanging out with since we first moved out to L.A., and they’re all sort of these hilarious women in their forties and fifties who like to have drinks together and talk shit about their kids and their jobs and their husbands, and, you know, some of them are actresses and some of them are married to athletes, and they’re all sort of brutally honest with each other, like, they say stuff to each other that you’re really not supposed to say, but then they’ve also really got each other’s backs, you know? Like, they’re all sort of ride or die. And I’ve known all these women for years, and I’ve always thought they were sort of amazing, and, apparently, so did the producers of The Winstocks, because they structured the whole season around them. They weren’t planning to, obviously, but I guess once they started filming, it became clear that they were a gold mine of content, and so the show has sort of ended up becoming a chronicle of their friendship. There’s this whole episode where my mom’s friend Carol goes to visit her son in rehab, and like, my mom drives her there and they get Burger King afterward and cry together in the parking lot, and there’s this episode where Lisa sets up a dating profile after she gets divorced, and my mom is just really mean to her about how she’s trying to use pictures from when she was twenty years younger, and they all sort of go through Lisa’s matches together and sort them into different categories of fuckability, and it’s all kind of irreverent and fun, but it’s also really touching, you know? There’s a lot of heart, a lot of feels. And there’s a little bit about Bob—he pops up every once in a while to say something or play with Lenny in the background—and there’s a bunch of stuff about my mom’s jewelry company and how she’s trying to expand the business and get celebrities to wear her pieces at events and stuff, but, for the most part, it’s just about these friendships. Bob is sort of a peripheral character.
