HART OF DIXIE REPORT INTERVIEW PART III 

THR: In Monday’s episode, Lemon sets her father up on a date. Can you expand on that?

Gerstein: It’s a new side of Brick Breeland we’ve never seen. He gets nervous and he gets suckered into going on this date. He doesn’t even realize that he agreed to go with the town baker, his first date in 12 years. The ending of that episode is very emotional.

THR: Will Lemon and George continue to have problems?

Gerstein: They’re going to start to overcome a lot of their problems very soon. Their biggest problem right now is she hasn’t been honest with him about a lot of things. She’s holding in this secret about her mother and that’s been weighing on her heart. Once she does tell him, which she will, they head into a nice place.

THR: Wade is always up to something. What kind of trouble is he going to get into?

Gerstein: In episode 14, Wade and Lemon have a little adventure together. I will just say there is some line-dancing involved and we see a whole new side of her. He takes Lemon on his adventures and he has a new woman, Joelle, who he started to see. She’s featured prominently in the next couple of episodes as well.

THR: What’s in store for Deedee and Lavon?

Gerstein: We’ll be seeing more of DeeDee and Lavon. They are blossoming, but his past relationship with Lemon will come back to haunt him.

THR: Justin Hartley is appearing as a potential love interest and war hero for Zoe in an upcoming episode. How does that affect everyone in town when he arrives?

Gerstein: Justin Hartley arrives in an extremely big episode: episode 18. It is an episode in which everything erupts and so he is a catalyst for a few different things. It’s all I can say about that, but it is a really big episode. A lot of things are happening. He’s a little mysterious, I would say.
