'P-Valley' Episode 3 Promo: Things heat up between Andre and Autumn with new look as she clashes with Mercedes

In episode 3, we will see Autumn Night (Elarica Johnson) finally going shopping with the other girls in Pynk who help her "don a bold new look", according to the official synopsis. Serving as a capsule, mostly self-contained, episode, Autumn learns the rules of working as a “regular” from “The Trinity” at Pynk. The Trinity refers to the dancers Mercedes (Brandee Evans), the "OG" of the gang, Miss Mississippi aka Keyshawn (Shannon Thornton), and, finally, Get'em Gidget (Skyler Joy). 

While the episode ostensibly is about Autumn being 'trained', we will also get some insights into each of these girls. Each of them receives a visit from their favorite repeat customer that will reveal the characters' desires. We already know that Mercedes has eyes for Mane (Thomas Q. Jones), her neighbor who is on house arrest but has promised to slip off the leg 'manklet' to come to the club.

Cash-heavy Corbin (Dan Johnson) with a dominatrix fetish is Keyshawn's pick -- it will be interesting if the show goes into how Diamond (who has a crush on Keyshawn) feels about Corbin.

We still don't know who Gidget, the only White girl among Pynk's strippers, is into. In fact, it will be good to get to know her a little better in this episode since she has only appeared as a passing figure at the club till now. 

But the season's bigger story arc around the land deal will also feature in this episode. Elarica Johnson, who plays Autumn Night, released the preview trailer of episode 3 titled 'Higher Ground' from her Twitter account.

In the trailer, we see her new look includes a blonde wig. She also goes to meet Andre outside the club in a personal capacity. Though the attraction between the two is palpable, she also has little choice in the matter. Since Uncle Clifford has her fake ID, she can have her arrested for fraud anytime. Uncle Clifford, desperate about the survival of her club, tells Autumn "No Tea, No ID".

Autumn decides to seduce Andre in his own home so that she can get details about the land deal from his laptop. Of course, Andre catches on pretty quick and calls his employers, telling them they have "a problem". After Uncle Clifford "learns about big changes coming to Chucalissa", she will fight tooth and nail to keep Pynk open. A land grab won't be an easy proposition anymore.

Meanwhile, Autumn also tells Mercedes that her meeting Andre outside of work is "innocent". Mercedes isn't convinced of course. The two continue to butt heads with Mercedes calling her a "sloppy b***h", obviously critiquing her pole dancing skills and telling her to stay away from her pole. It shows the level of dedication Mercedes bring to her art and also why she is so angry that Autumn, who doesn't have her skill, is a big hit among Pynk's clientele.

'P-Valley' airs on Starz at 8 PM ET on July 26.
