Ep 1. A Series of Unfortunate Flips

Jeff Lewis is back with another season of his hit reality show, "Flipping Out". Season 11 kicks off with an episode titled "A Series of Unfortunate Flips". As always, Jeff and his team are flipping houses in the Los Angeles area, but this season, they're facing some unexpected challenges.

In the first episode, we see Jeff struggling to keep up with the demands of his business while also dealing with personal issues. He's still reeling from the end of his relationship with Gage and trying to navigate co-parenting their daughter, Monroe. Meanwhile, he's also dealing with a dispute with his business partner, Jenni, who has been with him since the beginning. Jeff is feeling overwhelmed and unsure of how to move forward.

However, he still has a job to do, and we see him and his team taking on several projects throughout the episode. They're flipping a house in Sherman Oaks, which Jeff describes as "a dump". As they get to work, they discover more and more problems with the property, including an infestation of black widow spiders. Jeff is not happy, but he's determined to push through and turn a profit.

In addition to the Sherman Oaks project, Jeff is also working on a gut renovation of a house in Beverly Hills. This project is particularly challenging because they're dealing with a difficult neighbor who isn't happy about the noise and disruption. Jeff gets into a heated argument with the neighbor, which only adds to his stress.

As Jeff deals with all of these challenges, he's also facing pressure from his clients, who have high expectations for their homes. One client, in particular, is causing him a lot of stress. She's extremely picky and keeps changing her mind about what she wants. Jeff tries to keep his cool, but it's clear that he's starting to lose patience.

Throughout the episode, we also see glimpses of Jeff's personal life. He's trying to move on from his breakup with Gage, but he's clearly still hurting. He's also dealing with some family drama, as his sister is going through a divorce and his parents are getting older. All of these personal issues are weighing on him, and it's clear that he's struggling to balance his work and his personal life.

As the episode comes to a close, Jeff is feeling overwhelmed and unsure of what the future holds. However, he's determined to keep pushing forward and making a success of his business. "A Series of Unfortunate Flips" sets the stage for what promises to be another exciting season of "Flipping Out", with plenty of drama, laughs, and of course, flips.
