‘Grosse Pointe Garden Society’: Catherine and Pierce Compete for a Listing in Episode 7 [Exclusive Clip]
Catherine’s attempt to jumpstart her real estate career faces a hurdle in the next episode of Grosse Pointe Garden Society, airing April 4 on NBC.
Last week, Catherine (Aja Naomi King) got an unexpected chance to pick up the pieces of her professional life thanks to a fortuitous coffee shop encounter with fellow realtor Pierce Goldman (King’s How to Get Away With Murder co-star Jack Falahee). Pierce owns high-end agency Goldman Properties, and he was interested in having Catherine join his team. But she saw the golden opportunity slip away when she had to back out of the interview after her daughter got sick.
Catherine tries to land a new listing in April 4 episode of ‘Grosse Pointe Garden Society’
Catherine might not have landed that new job with Goldman Properties. But in episode 7 of the freshman drama – which moves to a new Friday at 8 p.m. timeslot starting April 4 – she appears to have decided to strike out on her own.
In this exclusive clip from “Germination,” Daisy (Jesica Luza) shows Catherine around the massive house she’s trying to sell. Catherine’s worked with Daisy in the past, having sold her a downtown loft. She’s confident she can get “way over” asking for the luxurious property. But Catherine’s career has stagnated since she left her old agency following her affair with Gary. Daisy is concerned. “You’ve never sold a house without [Gary],” she points out.
Enter Pierce, whom Daisy is also considering as a realtor. The realization that her competition is the cocky agent whose job offer she just fumbled puts Catherine on her back foot. At first, Pierce sings Catherine’s praises, calling her a “tremendous realtor.” But he then hints that she won’t be able to give the listing her full attention because of her responsibilities as a mother.
“Don’t let her fool you,” he tells Daisy. “She moms so hard, it comes before everything else.”
Pierce and Catherine have an ‘adversarial’ dynamic in episode 7
Is Pierce out to sabotage Catherine after she blew her interview? Falahee told NBC Insider that the pair’s relationship “get a little bit more adversarial” in episode 7. He also compared their dynamic to Connor Walsh and Michaela Pratt in HTGAWM
Their relationship is “actually, kind of more like the Connor-Michaela dynamic in a way… So there’s just this hilarious sort of squaring off between us as we’re showing this house to a homeowner.”
Also in this week’s episode, Alice (AnnaSophia Robb) faces unexpected challenges at work, Brett (Ben Rappaport) feels pressure launching his car restoration business, and Birdie (Melissa Fumero) grows more involved in a tempting affair.
Grosse Pointe Garden Society airs Fridays at 8 p.m. ET on NBC. Episodes stream the next day on Peacock.
