‘Virgin River’: Martin Henderson ‘Very Resistant’ to Season 3 Mel & Jack Storyline

Martin Henderson as Jack Sheridan in Virgin River - Season 3, Episode 2
Spoiler Alert
Netflix

[Warning: The below contains MAJOR spoilers for all of Virgin River Season 3.]

At the end of Season 3 of Virgin River, things were sort of looking up for Jack (Martin Henderson): He and Mel (Alexandra Breckenridge) got back together and the police seemed to have the person who shot him in custody when the gun used was found in Brady’s (Benjamin Hollingsworth) possession.

However, that wasn’t the end of it. Mel revealed she’s pregnant and the baby may not be his. (Unbeknownst to Jack, while they were broken up, she visited a fertility clinic and used the embryos she and her late husband had left.) And Brady insisted he wasn’t the one to try to kill Jack.

TV Insider caught up with Henderson to get his take on those major moments for Jack and more.

I have to say I’m very happy that Jack is alive.

Martin Henderson: Ah, yes. So am I. I still got a job.

Take me inside Jack’s head because he’s proposing, then Mel drops a bombshell that she’s pregnant and then says he may not be the father.

[What would come next] would be about him just trying to get his head around the information and how it could come to be because the audience has seen her go to the fertility clinic. But as far as Jack’s concerned, she went to see her divorcing sister, so it’s so out of left field that the first question would be, “Well, who else have you been sleeping with? And what’s all this nonsense about loving me and having a kid? Why would you want to have a kid with me if you’ve been sleeping with someone else?” [It] would actually be really weird and awkward and uncomfortable and Mel would have to very quickly explain the rather unusual turn of events that happened.

But even that I think would leave Jack in a state of being so perplexed, given that she’s wanting to have a baby with him and then at the drop of a hat, she goes and [uses the embryos she had with] her dead ex-husband. It’s rather a quick reaction to Jack’s rejection. Jack would have felt that perhaps they could talk about it or that she would maybe give it a couple of weeks before deciding to do that. We’ll see, if we’re lucky enough to get more seasons, how he would handle that situation. I don’t know enough details about when you do paternity tests and how accurate that is at the beginning. I guess there would be a very big question mark hanging over all of their heads for a while.

Are Mel and Jack ready to get married considering the timing of it? They did just get back together. Lilly [Lynda Boyd] died. Hope’s [Annette O’Toole] in the hospital. Maybe making such a big decision at such an emotional time isn’t the best idea.

Yeah, I agree. I just think the writers wanted to have as much going on at the end of Season 3 as humanly possible. They’re like, “OK, what is the most dramatic thing we can do? Well, let’s have him propose, and then she’ll drop the baby bombshell and she’ll tell him that it might not be his.”

Probably, yeah, not great timing on Jack’s behalf, but I think also the decision to break up with Mel — and I’ve explored this extensively, given that I had to play those scenes and I was very resistant to the idea. I didn’t personally think that a man who would spend that much time wooing a woman and who was that in love with a woman would be that scared off by these other circumstances. I personally felt that it wouldn’t be easy, but if you love somebody, you show up, you just do what you can, you’ll do anything. But the writers insisted that they wanted to have this moment.

His decision was so excruciating because ultimately he came to it because he didn’t want to be the reason why she would miss out on something as big as having her own [kids] when he realizes that this is something that she wants wholeheartedly and deserves to have. If he were to say “maybe,” and then in nine months the babies come and then six months after that he’s strapped and stressed and he doesn’t want one and then he denies her. If that window closed, because she’s not getting any younger, if he was somehow complicit in her missing out on that, I think he couldn’t live with himself. He already feels that she’s missed out on so much in her life. He thinks he’s taking the high road, but of course, as soon as he makes the decision, he realizes he was wrong.

The decision to propose was probably fueled by a degree of guilt and shame that he took that measure, even though he thought he was doing the right thing. Like Doc [Tim Matheson] says, he almost lost the woman that he loves and that loves him. And it’s not that common to find that in life. Given all of that, I kind of see why he would maybe want to just prove to her that he [is in] because she’s skeptical. When she comes back, she’s wary — “You said you can’t do it. Why am I going to believe you now? You just broke my heart. And now you’re saying that you’re all in. What’s changed? Nothing’s changed.” So I think for him, it’s quite important that he shows her that his commitment is absolute, and what better way to do that than to take those vows and make it forever?

We still don’t know who shot him. Brady was arrested. But does Jack really think Brady could have tried to kill him?

No. In fact, you see Jack grappling with that and there’s a scene at the lumberjack game. Mike [Marco Grazzini] says there’s some evidence that suggests that Brady’s now the number one suspect. And Jack really has a hard time seeing that. As much as their relationship is fractured and filled with animosity and [they have] a complicated history. They were brothers, they fought together, and they defended each other with their lives. I think it feels a bit impossible for Jack to really get his head around that, but then more evidence comes to light and he starts to remember things and maybe he jumps to conclusions? We’ll have to find out if we get a Season 4.

Who do you think shot Jack?

Well, I know who shot Jack. [Laughs] So I can’t fairly answer that. I could lie to you and say, “Ooh, I don’t know, maybe it’s this,” but yeah, I’m not going to tell you.

Virgin River Season 3 Episode 7 Jack Brie

Courtesy of Netflix

I love Jack and Brie’s [Zibby Allen] relationship and what that brought to the show for both of the characters because both are dealing with quite a bit of trauma. What has having his sister in his life meant to Jack?

Jack is so grateful for her presence. It was unexpected and obviously at a time when he was in need and she turned up to support him with his recovery at the hospital and then she decides to stay, for her own reasons really. She’s there to outrun her past and heal, not too dissimilar to what Mel was doing in Season 1.

But as she states, Jack has been somewhat estranged from his family ever since he arrived back from Iraq and he doesn’t really defend himself too vehemently. He says, “But I love you.” He doesn’t say, “No, I’m not,” or “Well, there are reasons.” There’s still a lot of unsaid stuff, which is common in families, right? I’m hoping that if we get more seasons then more of that will be revealed. Why is he not as close to his family anymore? Was it the events that took place in Iraq? Is there something else? What’s nice about Jack is he’s this almost stereotypical guy and he’ll always show up and do the right thing, but he doesn’t talk a lot about what’s going on. We don’t really know a lot about him really in a deep way.

What’s exciting is the potential for the show as things go on and the pressures get too much of him, Jack’s going to be forced to confront a lot of his issues, and having someone like his sister there is probably gonna be a catalyst. She’s probably gonna lovingly suggest he might get some help. Certainly Mel as well. It’ll be fun to watch a man who doesn’t really want to go too deep be forced to because of relationships with the women in his life. And I think that’s quite typical, sadly, for a lot of men — they kind of go kicking and screaming to therapy or examining their demons. It’ll be fun to hopefully get to play that if we do.

Where does Jack stand when it comes to the seemingly inevitable Brady-Brie-Mike love triangle? He doesn’t want her with Brady, but Mike seems to have some secrets too…

Exactly. I get a sense Jack’s not privy to Mike’s secrets, that maybe that’s strictly between Brady — Brady’s aware of something and obviously Mike’s extremely defensive about it. There’s something there. I don’t know what the writers have in store for that.

Obviously, the Brady-Brie situation is something that would just rub Jack the wrong way. But I’m also hoping that there’s room for healing around the Brady-Jack relationship at some point. I don’t know when or what the writers intend, but certainly, there’s a brotherly love there and I think the kind of bond that can only exist between people who were in war zones together. It’s such an intense situation and that sense of connectedness [and] loyalty is very, very deep. It’d be nice to maybe see some of that healed.

It’s also made complicated because I think Brady acted selfishly in Iraq — that’s evidenced — and brashly, and he brought about events that then led to the demise of one of their men and Jack still takes that on, but it’s complicated. He knows that Brady did the wrong thing, but he also feels that he was responsible; as a leader, he should’ve had Brady under control, maybe. There’s a lot of unresolved guilt there and survivor’s guilt, so it’ll be a complicated process if they are to heal that friendship.

What do you think it would take for Jack and Charmaine [Lauren Hammersley] to ever work out a custody agreement?

Maybe a major personality change?

And Todd [Patrick Sabongui] out of the picture?

Yeah. Todd is just another force, one more thing piled on Jack’s shoulders that he now has to contend with. And far from being an ally, this guy is going to be another nemesis that just persists to undermine his ability to show up for his children. It’ll be interesting to see how Jack reacts to that. But yeah, I don’t see Charmaine changing her attitude anytime soon, but I think she’s torn. She’s also very much controlled by Todd and Jack starts to get the sense of that — the stuff with the dog — and it’s very evident to Jack that she’s in a situation that’s far less utopian than she lets on at the beginning. She’s like, “Oh, he’s amazing,” but clearly, there’s a darker side to Todd’s personality. Jack feels torn about that because he wants her to be with someone, he wants her to be happy, but obviously, [that] might not be the case. And Jack doesn’t want his children growing up influenced by a man that might not have a lot of integrity.

      Gosh I know, watch one episode, house fire characters break up, watch another one death from cancer, watch another one jail, miscarriage, kidnap, and baby drauma. Feels like all the lifetime movies in one.

    Charmaine’s babies are not Jack’s..(anyone else think she looks less pregnant this season) Mike is connected to jack’s shooting, Muriel is a sad desperate home wrecker, Hope lives, Mel’s desperate & irresponsible decision encouraged by her sister (ugh! Her sister is boring & in the midsts of a divorce hardly advice worthy) gives Jack pause on their relationship…jack’s sister defends Brady…But what about Preacher? Boring story line with the young kid & his crazy girlfriend…Too much drama at once going on this season..every single character had horrible tragedies..my head was spinning…talk about a disappointing ending..could we have gotten at least one single solution..season 4 was supposed to be already in filming..anyone?

      Nothing was resolved in Series 3, and we can't predict the plot or make sense of the future to be told in Series 4 because the writers are bad.

        PurpleAnchor

        Hope could be very annoying but Virgin River is just not the same without her. I saw interview article with writer. She said Hope will be back next season. She also said that we won't know if baby is Jack's until the end of season 4. That angers me so much I may just be done with the show.

  4. G

    GoldBlowdryer

    There's too much gloom and doom...Jack gets shot, his house burns down, Doc's going blind, Lily dies of cancer, Brie has a miscarriage, Hope's fighting for her life after an accident.

    The storyline of Paige on the run is fine but trying to kidnap Christopher doesn't fit.

    It's time to move on from

    Brady's "bad guy" storyline ... it's predictable/boring. You get a small glimpse of the softer side of Brady with Brie immediately followed by either Calvin or Mike rolling up and threatening him and ruining it. Planting the gun was so obvious.

    CyanDog

    I think Mike is the one that shot Jack and that whatever bad thing Jack thinks Brady did in Iraq was actually Mike and Brady will finally tell him when he figures out who is setting him up (remember, someone tipped off Calvin about the raid and the gun was planted, that’s all Mike in my opinion).

      I think Mike shot Jack too and then when Mike and Brady were fighting in the bar which made me think it was him even more. I don't feel Brady would shoot Jack.

      I reckon you’ve hit the nail! Has to be Mike

      1. P

        PurpleAnchor

        Vince hired someone to kill preacher and they shot the wrong guy. Once Vince gets rid of Preacher, he can kill Paige. Preacher would be the only one to tie Paige's murder to Vince, and the only one to tie Vince to Christopher's kidnapping. Just can't believe that Mike would kill Jack anymore than Brady would.

        CyanStrawberry

        In the books Mike was a good guy wasn’t he? Too many changes here! It’s close to a different story. They should either be more true to the books, or call it something else. I don’t know why Robyn stands for this.

    4. O

      OrangeDog

      But how could it have been mike when he and Jack were on the phone together when Jack heard someone walk into the bar? He’s definitely involved but I’m not sure he was the shooter.

      1. C

        CyanDog

        I think Jack initially heard Brady in the bar. Mike could have been right outside talking to Jack, he saw Brady go in and waited for him to leave. That’s how he knew he could pin it on Brady, he actually saw him there. 

        I think Brady has been covering up something that Mike did during the war but won’t tell Jack because he thinks Jack likes Mike more.

        This season really did have way too much drama, they better knock that off in season 4 (assuming there is one)!!

    5. P

      PurpleAnchor

      Has no one considered that Jack was not the intended recipient of the shooting? I think Vince hired someone to shoot Preacher and forgot to tell the shooter that Preacher has dark skin! I hate the thought of Mike being the shooter. That will just be another awful thing for Jack to deal with.

    6. G

      GreenApple

      I agree with you. I think Mike is bent and is on Calvin's payroll. Mike is not on the Virgin River Police force and yet he is front and center leading raids and investigating Jack's shooting. He is there to see if Jack remembers who actually shot him as we all know that it was not Brady who did it no matter how much it looks like he did.

    Not thrilled with season 3. Especially the part when Mel tells Jack she’s pg. and may not be his,

    to unrealistic. To lighten things up and have something positive and happy had Mel told Jack she was pg and he proposed (forget about the stupid embryo plot) then to find out Charmaine’s babies aren’t his. Yay would’ve made you feel a little better about the whole storyline.

    7 1

  10. P

    PurpleAnchor

    The writer has said that we won't find out who the father of Mel's baby is until the end of the 4th season. We will wait six months to a year to watch Mel and Jack deal with the fact that she is possibly carrying her ex husbands baby. Yuk. Awful. Creepy. Gee, thanks. Why do the writers think that any of the viewers want to watch a whole season of Jack dealing with this. Where is the fun in this for the viewers? Seriously. Tell us in the first or second episode that it is Jack's so we can see Jack dote on the woman carrying HIS baby, not someone else's. But looks like we will have to wait about two years to see this. Can you believe that? Will we even care by then? In the old days you would wait the three summer months for your show to come back on in the fall and you would get resolution to the cliff hanger. If we have to wait longer than that, reward us please with good news and resolutions!

    Mel and Jack chemistry was not there in season 3. I miss the chemistry and tension between them. Remember the scene in season one when they were playing pin ball? They were playful, flirty, Mel was almost giddy when looking at him. I enjoy the subplots but Mel and Jack are the reason I watch the show. The best scene in season 3 was when Jack told Mel she looked stunning. Not only was it funny, but the tension was there again. You could feel his desire to devour her but he does not know whether she wants to continue the relationship or not.

    All I have to say if Jack bails again I am done with this series. He left her and she decided to pursue in vitro with her frozen embryos. Big deal. Clearly she is not getting any younger and had trouble conceiving in the first place. Why not go ahead and get started. Why would she think Jack would come back to her over trying to see children that have not even been born yet. On the bright side for him if the baby is her dead husbands he won't be responsible for supporting a 3rd child which seemed to be a big deal for him. This season had too much drama with absolutely nothing resolved. It's too much. I love the show but just give us one thing. Make Jack and Mel stick it out with the love overcomes all schpeel.

    Wow Season 3 ,so disappointed ! Terrible writing , nothing but chaos a cliffhangers ( how many. Can we absorb ) Dialogue is all “Heys” and Doc “sighing ! “No chemistry between Mel and Jack !

    Preacher has endured Page’s absence toooo long and Christopher will be kidnapped !

    Brady and Brie are hot, he did NOT shoot Jack ! Lizzie has matured and is likable, Muriel

    Is it anyone else irritated with the Charmaine story line ? here she comes bebopping into the room.. eyes Jack and thinks oh what can I say to piss him off today and make his day miserable ? she’s not nice. she should not be allowed to have children and she managed to find one guy in the whole world that would date a pregnant woman and then obviously abuse her. Virgin River is beyond sad. I don’t know if I can do season four because somebody needs to have a little good news here. Who cares about Paige? we haven’t seen her for two seasons either !! Bring Hope back or give doc to Muriel OK Brady needs to be cleared and make Charmaine be the villain. She’s just mean! I may be out of here if you don’t have any good news.?? The young couple? Lizzy & even her friend is going in the Marines?? BORING who’s writing this ?

    And is Charmaine now part elephant? Or maybe in same-day, drug-free IVF land pregnancy is 18 months and you don't get a belly? She is such an unlikable character. And not in an "I love to hate her" way. If the writers erased her like she never existed, I'd be happy. For me, she's pure nails on a chalkboard.

    The infertility story line here is so unrealistic, I wanted to scream. I'm in the infertility/multiple miscarriage club. The drive and desperation to have a baby...the emptiness and ache no matter how much you have or how happy you are...they got that right. But to suggest one can just decide to implant frozen embryos same day, and THEN to imply a doctor actually A) had an opening exactly at that time and B) would ever implant an unprepared uterus...OMG. Not to mention the costs and she would need to prove Mark was dead...the degree of fantasy borders on insulting. How could they not do their research on such a sensitive topic?

    The gloom and doom and drama dump this season is taking away from the beauty of the show. It was SO good season one. Season two was great too. Season three is feeling like writers doubted how good and are trying to force a renewal, and in doing so pushed out all the happiness and joy. There is so much chaos, it's like a bad telenovela.

    Charmaine is manipulative and quite pathetic. She acted all hurt when their relationship was casual. It would be almost IMPOSSIBLE to remain casual after 2 yrs but that was implied. Plus ms prego knows jack has some PTSD issues but shes so self absorbed that she doesn't care about him. Jack needs to run, not walk away from that chick.

    Frankly, I was disappointed w season 3. I have over the years developed a philosophy about books, TV shows and films - if after beginning them I discover I no longer care what happens to the characters, I stop reading or watching. Such was the case with Poldark and then Outlander and ,sadly, now Virgin River. With Poldark it was the negativity of the show. With Outlander, it was the extreme length between seasons. And now, with Virgin River it is the multi inner dramas taking place. For me Virgin River was interesting at the beginning because I felt the running theme was”Renewal” after experiencing great sadness. Now it has become, again sadly, a hodgepodge of melodramas. Under current life experiences, be it political or medical, I believe people want to feel uplifted.

    The most recent season is a wild mix of far too many new situations, characters, and dilemmas. What the viewer deserves is resolution - not confusion! Sadly, Virgin River has devolved into a frustrating soap opera. Very disappointing.

    Incidentally, is it possible for any character to interact with another without opening the dialogue without the word "Hey?" The script is a disservice to the actors and audience.

    Mel tells Jack that she's pregnant but the baby might not be his...

    What kind of a fertility clinic would implant embryos without first doing a pregnancy test? And Mel is a nurse midwife who has been sexually active with Jack, wouldn't she want to know first? That whole storyline just made me want to scream!

        She was told that she could not get pregnant naturally, therefore she and Mark were trying the In vitro treatments. She didn't think she needed birth control. Weak storyline that she would even consider that Jack is the father since she is not supposed to be able to get pregnant that way. But, if it is not Jack's then that is the end of the show for me!

    I think Todd hired someone to kill Jack. He doesn’t want to deal with Jack being the Father of the twins. Jack is not someone Todd can buy with his money.

    Was hoping we’d find out that Charmain had lied and the twins are not his. Maybe the paternity test will reveal the truth.

    I think everyone is about self. I think Mike shot Jack because he is on the take. Charmaine is about to get pay back what she was trying to do to Jack and Mel ( make their lives miserable) The guy she married don't give a hoot about her, things are going to go his way. I wish Hope survives the fever,hospital,and Muriel. Paige might be dead. I hope Preacher survives . Connie and Christopher need help and if think about Preacher and Connie end up in jail. There is to much going on.

    Mike is the shooter. Jack is not the father of the twins. Preacher storyline is boring. Paige can stay in hideout, nobody cares. Hope needs to come back, she lightened things up. Now about Mel and Jack….didn’t they practice safe sex? She’s a doctor for f*****sake and he doesn’t want more kids????? Stupid plot.

    I'd like to see Preacher survive, find his way back to protect Christopher & Connie while having Christopher's uncle along with the woman who helped him arrested & sent away & Paige's name cleared so she could come home.

    The Third Season of Virgin River introduces far too many new dilemmas when the audience longs for resolution- not confusion. It now feels like a soap opera on a spree. Very disappointing. And why does every dialog exchange start with "Hey?" Perhaps this is an attempt to string together the unlikely scenarios - who knows!

    I think charmine babys belong to some one else , she had left jack and came back pregnant, brady did not shot jack,mel and jack needs to get married

    Cause he is the father of mels baby. No way 1 week she is pregnant thats fast it takes alot to get through infertility clinic.my daughter went for almost a year before she had her son.

    I’m totally wanting to see what happens. I was sitting there at the end dumbfounded. I really am confused as to how Mel got the IvF that quick and might be pregnant from that. Please keep Virgin River on I’m hoping for season 4

    Read the books… of course that doesn’t guarantee the story line

    I think Hope should die and the Dr. should marry Muriel, she was awesome this season. While Brady’s bad guy storyline is predictable, his love scenes with Jakes sister were fire. Even less Hope, more Brady, but make him turn the corner because of his live for James sister..

      Muriel is awful. She's, "disguising," herself as a sweet, helpful friend. Caring for Doc. In his time of need.🙄 She's desperate. Not an attractive trait. 🙄

      Hope and Doc belong together 💛. And, Annette O'toole (sp?) was unable to be full time this season, due to Covid. Not because she wanted to be.

      This is petty, but, if Hope, "leaves," the series, so will I.

      *Mel and Jack need to be together, together. And, get Chloe.

      *Bradys growin' on me. Him and Brie, HOT.

      *Sadly, I think Mikes hot. But, I'm fairly certain he shot Jack.

      *Preacher and Christopher are boring. Paige is trash.

      *Connie needs to walk off a cliff, with Parker. And Muriel.

      💥THAT'S ALL. VERY LONG. ALL JMO.💥

    Love the Virgin River series! Lots of interesting storylines, things starting to get pretty complicated & juicy! Just wonder with so much going on whether 10 shows per season is enough to cover it all… would like to see more shows. Also, we’ve been through 3 full seasons (spanning at least 2 years in real time) and Charmagne, who got pregnant in Season 1, is STILL not close to delivering Jack’s twins! Maybe it’s time to pick up the pace in the storylines? Would hate to wait til Season 8 for Mel to give birth, you know!
