Sweet dreams.

You, too.

Sienna. Is that a convenience store burrito on the kitchen counter?

Sienna

Technically, it’s the wrapper of a convenience store burrito.

It says “Beens n’ Cheez” on it.

I’m calling 911.

We can’t all be Michelin-starred chefs in our spare time, Mr. Harwood.

It’s not just the burrito. I found your Slim Jims yesterday. And those rice cracker things the day before.

Now you just sound like an elitist.

Do you ever eat a vegetable?!

There were onions in the burrito.

The ingredient list says “onion product.”

Exactly.

There’s leftover tagliatelle in the fridge. Take it for lunch tomorrow, I beg of you. It’s the pasta in truffle cream. My mom’s recipe has arugula in it, but I made broccolini instead.

My mom would have loved your mom.

I’ll take it for lunch. If you promise to eat a Slim Jim.

Nick, 1:32 PM

Fine. The Slim Jim was pretty good.

Sienna

Told you.

The pasta tasted like home, just so you know.

Sienna, 9:06 AM

Did you get my email about the gala next week?

Nick

Yeah. Everything looks good.

I went over the final seating chart with Lena and Mason. No surprises, but the press table is right next to your father’s.

Of course it is.

You ready for them?
