Virgin River season 5 episode 11 spoilers: More on Mel’s search
As we prepare to see Virgin River season 5 episode 11 on Netflix later this month, there is a lot to be excited about! What’s one of the biggest things? For us, it has to be the grand search for Mel’s father amidst the holiday backdrop.
For those who want a quick refresher, Alexandra Breckenridge’s character learned at the end of season 5 episode 10 that her dad is actually in the town, as crazy and shocking as that seems. There’s going to be some fun that comes out of the search, but also a little drama. We do think that we’ll have a somewhat lighter could of episodes ahead, especially when you compare them to just how dark things got at times during the first part of the season.
So what is Mel going to learn about herself amidst the journey? Well, here is some of what showrunner Patrick Sean Smith said to TV Insider:
I think one thing that she learns is just how deep of a connection she was wanting to have to her mother, but also who she is and where she comes from, realizing that what she knew before is no longer the truth. She starts and she’s excited about this opportunity to connect with this person who’s an extension of who she is. I think it’s a lot about her identity and then just the way it plays out in the episodes, that Jack is along for the ride of them going through this sort of Virgin River holiday scavenger hunt following these breadcrumbs to ultimately lead her to this man who she knows nothing about but has a very personal connection to her.
Beyond this, one of our real hopes at the moment is that we’re going to have a great opportunity to see some sort of cliffhanger for season 6. This sort of drama is what the show lives for! We’d almost be shocked if we don’t get something, and it’s our hope that the series will keep going strong for multiple years to come.
