The show Ground Floor season 1 episode 1, named "Pilot," introduces us to the main characters and sets the scene for the rest of the series. The episode starts with a wealthy investment banker named Brody (played by Skylar Astin) meeting a beautiful girl named Jenny (played by Briga Heelan) at a bar. They hit it off immediately, and Brody is eager to see her again.

The next day, Brody arrives at his job at Remington Trust, a successful financial firm in downtown Los Angeles. He's introduced to the rest of his team, including his boss, Mansfield (played by John C. McGinley), and his colleague Threepeat (played by Rene Gube). Mansfield is a gruff, no-nonsense type who has built his career on hard work and dedication. Threepeat, on the other hand, is a tech-savvy young man who is always up for a good time.

As Brody settles into his new job, he finds himself thinking about Jenny more and more. He decides to invite her out for dinner and, to his surprise, she agrees. They have a great time, and Brody is convinced that he's found the one. However, when he returns to work the next day, he discovers that Jenny is actually the head of the ground floor maintenance team at his office building.

Despite this setback, Brody is determined to make things work with Jenny. He starts spending more time with her on the ground floor, getting to know the rest of her team in the process. They're a tight-knit group, and Brody is impressed by their camaraderie and work ethic. As he gets to know them better, he realizes that they may be onto something with their business ideas.

Meanwhile, Mansfield becomes aware of Brody's relationship with Jenny and disapproves. He's worried that it will distract Brody from his work and lead to problems down the line. He assigns him to a difficult project, hoping to keep him busy and focused on his job.

The project turns out to be a disaster, and Brody feels like he's hit a dead end. But when he confides in the ground floor team about his troubles, they come up with a creative solution that saves the day. As a result, Mansfield is impressed by Brody's resourcefulness and starts to see him in a new light.

By the end of the episode, Brody has realized that there's more to life than just money and success. He's learned to appreciate the hard work and dedication of the ground floor team and has developed a newfound respect for Jenny and her colleagues. With Mansfield's blessing, he decides to team up with the ground floor team to explore their business ideas and see where they can take them.
