The Harvest Moon Wiki

This article is about Catherine, a character from Seeds of Memories. You may be looking for Catherine, a character from The Lost Valley.

Catherine is one of the five bachelorettes that the male main character can marry in Harvest Moon: Seeds of Memories.

Catherine is a rather awkward person that has lots of trouble expressing herself. She may come across as someone very snobbish and harsh, but in truth she just acts superior to hide her extreme shyness and inability to communicate with others.

Story[]

Luke has hired her to help out in his bar as an act of kindness to help her to come out of her shell. She's trying, but she finds it very hard to be nice to people instead of being aloof and standoffish.

Her attitude towards you will change and she will become more friendly as your friendship with her grows.

Events & Memories[]

The Aloof Waitress

The memory will be triggered automatically the moment you meet Catherine for the first time. She will give you 5 strawberry seeds.

Catherine: "...Tsk, tsk! Welcome...I suppose! This is Luke's Bar! And I am an... am employee here. My name is Catherine! Well, do you have any complaints? Tsk....Oh, bother! I've gotten off on the wrong foot again... I have to be more...more "friendly." So, you! You moved into town recently, I believe! Most likely you are some sort of eccentric! Well, I suppose I must advise you on making acquaintances in town... Not that I want to! If you wish to be on friendly terms with someone, you should first offer them gifts, naturally! To give a gift, select an item from your bag and then talk to the person you want to give it to. For food items, select "Hold", and then you can give it to someone. Easy, right? Obviously, people have their own preferences, and giving them items they like builds friendship....Tsk! I have nothing more to say to you for today! So if you would be so good as to leave at once -- er, that is, please stay and enjoy yourself. Tsk!"

*Got Strawberry Seeds: 5!*

The Cold Waitress

The memory will be triggered once you reach one music note with Catherine and talk to her at the bar at night; you will be rewarded with five strawberry seeds.

Catherine: Tsk, tsk! Look who has returned! I suppose you'll behave as though you're welcome, so go ahead!" "...Ah, yes, now I say: "Will you have a beverage?" We also serve food. Whether you want anything or not, have the good grace to order SOMETHING! Tsk!" "...Ah, that's right. I have been informed that you are a farmer! If you have any troubles, on your farm or otherwise, I would be... er...glad to listen!" "...No, that came out wrong. Why must I struggle so just to... Ulp! N-Nothing at all! Pay no mind! Tsk, tsk! If, we, you do have any troubles, you would be well advised to talk to Luke about them. Luke, not me! Have -- ahem -- have a nice day! Tsk, tsk!"

*Got Strawberry Seeds: 5!*

Parfait Paradise

The memory will be triggered once you reach 1.5 music notes with Catherine and talk to her at the restaurant on Wednesday between 2pm and 6pm; you will be rewarded with five magical berry seeds.

Emily: "Today's parfait special is Chocolate Banana Caramel!"
Catherine: "Ahem! That sounds decadently sweet! I suppose I'll have one."
Emily: "Coming right up! It's so delicious it will knock your socks off!"

  • The player enters the diner and approachs Catherine*


Catherine: "Well, if it isn't [Name]? Good day to you. Do you have some business with me? Do not expect me to be so indulgent towards you as I must be at the bar! I am off duty! This is my personal time! Kindly refrain from spoiling it with your badgering! I make a habit of eating a parfait here at the restaurant. I hope you have the manners not to comment! Chocolate banana caramel parfait! I am quite looking forward to it..."

  • "Sounds really sweet..."
Catherine: "And I suppose you disapprove of sweets? Do you frown upon the happiness they bring me...?
  • "Do you like sweet foods?"
Catherine: "Well, yes I do! I quite adore them! Eating sweets is simply bliss! And deserts at this restaurant are superb! Delightfully sweet! I always come here before work..."
  • Sounds delicious!"
Catherine: "So you CAN manage a little proper conversation with a lady! Yes, eating sweets is simply bliss!"

Catherine: "Ahem! May I remind you that this is my personal time? Conversing with YOU is not... is... Tsk...! You have put me all out of sorts now...!"

*Got Magical Berry Seeds: 5!*

Catherine's Quandary

The memory will be triggered once you reach two music notes with Catherine and talk to her at the bar at night; you will be rewarded with five princess' eye seeds.

Catherine: "I do apologize... Why must I always end up ruining things like this..."
Luke: "I gotta say, it's not good for you to be so sharp-tongued towards the customers... The regulars know you, and they know what you're like, so you can gradually work on it."
Catherine: "But...I simply have no idea how to go about remedying it! I try to observe myself strictly, but..."
Luke: "Yeah... You do okay talking with me, so I wonder why you struggle with others...?"
Catherine: "Th-That's because... No reason! I will reflect on it more myself and we shall see..."

  • The player enters and approachs Catherine*


Catherine: "It's you, [Name]... Good day... Were you...eavesdropping on that conversation? Tsk, tsk! I nust insist that you put it out of your mind! It most certainly is no concern of yours!"
"...I am able to speak amiably with Luke simply because I have great respect for him."
"...I aspire to be like him. He is good-natured and has so many friends... I should very much like to enjoy the same social success he has... so I took employment in his bar. Nevertheless, nothing has changed so far...and I am quite at my wit's end about what to do..."
"...My goodness, what came over me to be speaking all these private thoughts to you of all people! How wretched! You will forget we ever had this conversation! Understood? Tsk!"
"...Tsk, tsk!"

*Got Princess's Eye Seeds: 5!*

A First Friend

Catherine: "Well! We meet again, [Name]. Good day. You, er, appear to be at leisure. Would you be so kind as to... er, listen, to what I have to say? Ever since I was little, I... I have been atrocious at making small talk with people..."
"...And due to my high-handed way of speaking, I have been bereft of friends... So...I set my mind to make myself a more charming conversationalist by taking employment with Luke! However, since doing so, my way of speech has not improved... I conveyed this information to Luke. And he recommended that I should begin by...by finding one friend to whom I could speak freely... Therefore, er...being such... that is to say... [Name]! Would you be inclined to be that friend for me?! Well?!"

  • "Sure!"

Catherine: "T-Tsk! I suppose in that case I owe you my thanks, so...thank you..."

  • "Nope."

Catherine: "Suit yourself! I have already made up my mind that you will be my friend. You can only accept it."

  • "I'm already your friend!"

Catherine: "Is... Is that so...? I must admit, In unfamiliar with even the definition of friendship... Very well, then... Let us conider the relationship betweem us to be one of friendship."

Catherine: "I...appreciate that you are willing to talk to me even if I am slightly...high-strung. Very slightly! I forbid you to leap to any further conclusions! Understand that I can discuss this matter only with you -- in the strictest confidence! You are altogether forbidden from mentioning this conversation to anyone -- ever! Tsk!"
