I'm Unconvinced

The extent to which my mother keeps up with current TV shows is mortifying. She at once knows too much and too little.

Mother: What happened on Gossip Girl tonight? Aren't they all grown up now?

Moi: Yeah, they're in college.

Mother: But the evil one, he's not in school- he's running a business.

Moi: That's right.

Mother: But then somebody cheated all his money or got control of his company. What happened after that?

Moi: I don't know. I think he got it back.

Mother: That's so unrealistic. He lost everything, how could he have it all back?

Yes. That's the detail my mother finds unrealistic about the story of Chuck Bass.
