Sue Tenney’s Netflix drama series is going to come up with a couple of episodes for season five and they’re all about Christmas and the end-of-year holidays. So Virgin River Season 5 part 2 is all about it. We pick up on the stories of a small town chronicling the life, the ups and the downs of Mel Monroe as the new nurse at a local clinic.
Mel met Jack Sheridan, and across seasons, we meet a few other characters along the way to add more substance to the character story arc development: From Brie —Jack’s sister—, a lawyer, who ends up developing a romance with Brady —one of Jack’s buddies— and from then on, we see a lot of things.
Now, for part two, set in this fictional small town right in the middle of Advent and Christmas, there’s more stuff to come along the way. So, ahead of the Netflix premiere of this drama, we made a small recap for you concerning a few details about the past episodes. So, without any further ado, let’s get this show on the road.
Possible Plotlines
The first ten episodes of this series develop as usual. And Netflix is dropping this late November a couple of Christmas-themed episodes. So, we must do a brief recap of where we’re at to make sense of it all.
One of the key plotlines these Christmas episodes might be over the identity of Mel’s father. Joey thinks that Mel lives in Virgin River based upon a few letters discovered addressed to Mel’s mom. It could be Bert, Charlie, Nick, Doc, and even Lily’s deceased father. Still, these two episodes could hint at a few things and also extend towards season six.
Also, Lizzy’s pregnancy is a key focal point in these two upcoming episodes. Who’s the father? Is it Denny? Is it Ricky? Furthermore, is Lizzy really pregnant? If we judge things from the show and the trailer, we can also suspect up to this point, we need a confirmed test. Also, Lizzy and her relationship with Denny —if he’s the father— might see us watch some life-changing reactions.
Charmaine’s also pregnant, everybody is having or potentially having a baby in this show. So, how can a character be pregnant for five seasons here? In any case, we need to ponder the drama between Calvin and his wishes to be the dad. We could be concerned about Charmaine’s well-being, especially because across the show we see some heartbreaking miscarriages and stillbirths. I personally don’t like Charmaine, but I can only wish she had a good outcome for her pregnancy. It is a Christmas seasonal episode anyway.
Since Patrick Sean Smith is the producer, and he’s been vocal about this round of episodes, we can expect a few light things here, we’re likely to see more comedy, a few happy endings, and trouble-free narratives. Mel and Jack wanting to adopt a kid is something that these episodes could take place here.
