Ep 2. Can't Have Your Cake and Eat It Too

In "Can't Have Your Cake and Eat It Too," the second episode of Selling Sunset's first season, viewers are greeted with more drama and luxury as the cast of the show go about their jobs of selling high-end properties in Los Angeles.

The episode mainly focuses on Mary and Heather, two realtors who work for The Oppenheim Group, as they move forward in their respective relationships. Mary has been with her boyfriend Romain for a while, but she is feeling insecure about their relationship after he declines to attend a surprise party she organized for him. Meanwhile, Heather is hesitant about her boyfriend's intentions after he cancels a date last-minute.

As the episode progresses, we see Mary's relationship issues intensify as she begins to question the status of hers and Romain's relationship. She confides in her colleagues, who mainly offer sympathetic nods and words of encouragement. However, things pick up when they go to a house showing and, to Mary's surprise, Romain shows up. This causes tension, but the situation is diffused when the couple talks and clears up any misunderstandings between them.

On the other hand, Heather's storyline takes a twist when she finds out that her boyfriend, who has been elusive about his career, is actually a former model. As she expresses her concerns about the truthfulness of his intentions, the two of them go out for dinner. During the meal, he reveals that he has been married twice before, and Heather is taken aback by this revelation.

Throughout the episode, viewers are also introduced to different properties that are up for sale, including one that has a stunning view of downtown L.A. Furthermore, there is a plot twist when a colleague shows interest in a property which another colleague has already sold. This leads to an awkward confrontation between the two of them, where the issue is thankfully resolved.

As always, Selling Sunset delivers as a reality show that blurs the line between business and pleasure. The show offers a peek into the world of high-end real estate, while also showcasing the personal lives of the realtors. With its glamorous setting and larger-than-life personalities, it is a true blend of luxury and drama.
