‘When Calls the Heart’: Kevin McGarry and Chris McNally on What Comes Next With Elizabeth (VIDEO)
[WARNING: The following contains MAJOR spoilers for When Calls the Heart Season 8 Episode 8, “A Parade and a Charade.”]
Let’s hope you Hearties have someone close to hold onto because the April 11 episode of Hallmark’s When Calls the Heart hits us with a doozy of a moment. That’s when noble mountie Nathan Grant (Kevin McGarry) finally tells our heroine Elizabeth Thornton (Erin Krakow) about the kinda-sorta part he played in her husband Jack’s unfortunate death years ago.
In a chat with the two competitors for Elizabeth’s heart, above, McGarry tells TV Insider that, for Elizabeth, his confession could be insurmountable: “I think this is a big thing moving forward to see if she can forgive him,” he says.
And will it send Elizabeth right into the arms of Nathan’s romantic competition, businessman Lucas Bouchard (Chris McNally)? It could happen. Earlier in the episode, Elizabeth and Lucas share a sweet moment in his office when she pats the chair next to her for him to join her. They even hold hands, a bold move for the widow Thornton considering she’s been very careful about moving too fast with either of the worthy candidates for her heart.
In our talk, McNally notes that “one of the recurring themes so far this season has been that Lucas is usually trying to move things forward…so I think it’s a win for Lucas that she offers that.”
Given we still have four episodes left in the current eighth season (and waiting on word for a ninth season renewal!), a lot could happen between now and the season finale. Be sure to watch the video for a preview of what’s coming next, plus their take on the latest episode’s developments — including that tense moment between Lucas and Nathan at the oil rig— and their words of advice to fans of Team Lucas and Team Nathan waiting to see who Elizabeth finally chooses.

Just pick one already! This has gone on too long. Elizabeth is becoming boring. Same thing every week.

I totally agree! Two seasons of Elizabeth being wishy-washy back-and-forth between two men isn’t even her character

I have loved this show since it started. But, I must say it has been disappointing seeing Elizabeth's character teasing the two men. The last thing was her confronting Nathan in the street with so many people around.

I agree. It seemed a bit inappropriate. And how she was "dealing" with Allie was sad.

I think it gets old and they waited too long for it to come out about nathan, it didn't seem like it was his fault, she should know better than to toy with 2 men, she tries to be too perfect

Love this show, but I wish Nathan/Elizabeth would have some scenes together alone like we’ve seen with Lucas/Elizabeth. This whole season has only shown Lucas/Elizabeth going on dates whereas Nathan/Elizabeth have never had any alone time & the season is almost over. There has been such an imbalance between the two men as far as shared time with Elizabeth so this aspect has been a little disappointing to watch this season. #TeamNathan

I’ve been so disappointed with the last two seasons of the show. I saw an interview with the person who plays Bill Avery and he said the story was going to go back and forth between Lucas and Nathan he said it would go one way and then we go the other And they really haven’t shown anything with a love story with Nathan yet so I feel that she’s going to suddenly change her mind and go toward Nathan. In the Janet oaks story original she marries the mountie I just feel that that’s where this is heading i’ve been so disappointed with the last two seasons of the show almost to the point where I didn’t wanna watch it again the next season.

The love story we’ve been watching slowly but consistently develop is that of Elizabeth and Lucas, not because Lucas is “better” for Elizabeth as one team would say, or “unfairly given more chances” as the other side would say, but because that’s the love story the writers are telling. We don’t see the same time or romance with Nathan because that’s not he and Elizabeth’s story. Their’s is a story of friendship and forgiveness and mutual love and caring for Allie, a story equally as beautiful. But what of the triangle? Yes, there is a triangle, but it’s a love story set WITHIN a larger story of friendship. The writers had to write it this way. There’s no other way to write it and remain faithful to the beautiful and honest storytelling that is WCTH. When the triangle is finally “resolved” everyone must be able to look back and see that Elizabeth’s choice was the right choice, for her, and that she was true to her heart. If we, as observers looking in, are unhappy with the outcome it’s only because we tried to write the story instead of letting it unfold as written. We don’t see evidence of Nathan and Elizabeth’s romantic love story, because it’s not supposed to be there. If, instead of inserting into the story what WE think should be there, we entrust the storytelling to those telling the stories, we’ll find by season’s end that these incredibly gifted writers, producers, and actors have given us TWO equally-beautiful and rewarding tales of love and friendship.

She clearly loves both men. And although the romantic story is with Lucas, she is not ready for it and its possible she may never be after the loss of Jack. So I can't help but wonder does she need the romantic story or the story of friendship? I've heard so many cases of people marrying their best friend.
7 12
-
O
Yes, I agree. That does happen, and some find romance with their best friend. Here, both men are amazing and admirable in their own ways and the love story could go either direction. We have to wait and see but, no matter where the romance lands, the audience can be assured the triangle will end with a very real and genuine friendship between the 3 and all 3 happy and satisfied with the final choice. BOTH men see her as perfect and love her enough to do what makes her happy, and I think she will open up her heart fully to one of them. Jack’s final letter to her seems to suggest this is where the writers are leading us (he asks her to open her heart up to love again, that her happiness is most important, and that she is the perfect woman). How can this end in happiness for all 3 and mutual respect between them? Both Rosemary’s conversation with him next week and Lucas’s with him this week, I personally believe, suggest that in the end Nathan will do the thing that makes Elizabeth the happiest. Nathan, acknowledging that Lucas makes her happy, will do the honorable thing and step away. Then a real and deep friendship between the 3 becomes possible. But that’s just if I were to make a guess - I don’t want to attempt to “write” the story for the writers!!!

Team Lucas all the way . He is so much more suited for Elizabeth. She has already gone the Mountie route. Time to put that theme to rest and move on with the new story line. They need to find Nathan a new love interest!

I liked Lucas at first. Now I'm not so sure. Seems all flash and not much substance. Can we see Elizabeth and Lucas do more than just dinner dates and near-miss kisses? I mean they'll have to do more than that when baby Jack is nearby.

So true.

Lucas is the better choice for Elizabeth. He seems to be patient and kind. He thinks more about Elizabeth and her feelings than his own. He wants what is best for her even is she would choose Nathan over him. Nathan thinks more about his own needs and wishes regardless of how Elizabeth feels. Lucas is gracious and Nathan is selfish.
48 28
-
C
If Lucas is so patient then why does he keep testing her and making her decline his advances? He keeps putting her in the position to have to turn his advances down. It is like he is trying to wear her down to give in to him. He then follows with saying oh yeah take your time. Sorry Lucas, your actions mean more than your words I think. Nathan isn't selfish. He truly and deeply loves her and doesn't want to give up on her and thankfully because I think she needs to know that in case things dont work out with Lucas, Nathan will still be there.
27 23
-
G
I have to disagree. I feel Lucas is very patient because of how much he loves her. They keep getting into near misses because of the way they feel about each other.
12 7
-
G
I'm not sure if anyone else sees that she doesn't want Lucas to make advances because she doesn't feel strongly about him. He is really not her type. Just look at the way she and Nathan look at each other. She is just afraid of history repeating itself with another fatal accident like the one she experienced with Jack. In the last scene of Season 7, when she realized Nathan was alive, she ran to him, put her arms around him and held on to him for dear life. That is all you have to know to see her true feelings.

WCTH is a mountie love story. I loved the novel saga by Janet Oke. The story of Wynn and Elizabeth down through the years was really good. So, she does need to be with a Mountie as that is way more authentic and aligned with the original novels. And in the show Elizabeth and Jack started out having a controversial, feisty, and argumentative interaction. It turned into love. She and Lucas have been too easy....no pride and prejudice Jane Austen type interaction before finally falling in love. I was a huge pride and prejudice fan and I think that the Janet oak novel of one calls the heart and the relationship initially between Elizabeth and Wynn was reminiscent of that for me. So, I think her relationship with Nathan is more like that then is her relationship with Lucas. And her relationship with Jack was feisty to begin with. The Lucas/Elizabeth relationship is too bland....no spirit or spunk to it. Just an observation.

I agree, I just can’t see how Nathan and Elizabeth can somehow be together after 8 episodes of Elizabeth being angry at Nathan and her spending so much time with Lucas. Won’t it be awkward if she decides to kiss Nathan suddenly?

I know no one is mentioning this but I am disappointed in how Claire and Jesse's and Faith and Carson's stories are playing out. Faith seems different - not as joyful. And Claire needs to communicate better. And Jesse needs to try to communicate too. I thought at first that he was trying to buy the dress shop but no answers on that.

Yes, I am wondering what he used their family money for? Was he going to buy the dress shop? Did he invest in the oil well? Bitcoin? And Claire and Carson are talking about marriage before he leaves in the preview.

Elizabeth needs to spend more time being with Jack and being a mother, instead of gallivanting all over town looking for a new beau, and being in everyone else's business.
Plus, there are way too many commercials this season!

I love Nathan, but the more I’ve watched this season I believe Nathan’s purpose in this “triangle” has more so been for Elizabeth to confront her feelings about Jack’s death so she can ultimately let go of some of the emotional burden she is carrying & open up her heart to love again. Elizabeth may care for both men but as we’ve seen it is in clearly different ways. Given the lack of any romantic progression this season with Nathan & all the dates with Lucas, I believe Elizabeth will end up with Lucas although I prefer Nathan’s more down to earth, laid back nature (and I love how Nathan isn’t afraid to challenge Elizabeth like Jack did in the early part of their relationship). Lucas is a good man but reminds me more of the type of guy/lifestyle that Elizabeth turned away from when she lived in Hamilton to be with Jack. And I’m not so sure Lucas would give up his career to be with Elizabeth like Nathan said he would. It will be a real nail biter for some of us right up until the last few minutes of the season to find out for sure!

C
Good point about his "purpose". And I really hope she doesn't blame him and actually hope telling her the truth brings her closer to him. I imagine he feels like it was supposed to be him and really needs her "forgiveness" even though its not his fault.

The original story was about Elizabeth coming from a wealthy family becoming a school teacher and falling for a mountie despite their differences. Now it seems she is going back to her roots - falling for a more sophicated, richer man.

I feel sorry for all of the kids who lost their jobs on this season show. The school season opened and then the very next week it was over with graduation. This whole season has been about Elizabeth and how she can’t make up her mind about 2 men. 2 years of this is the longest drawn out boring storyline ever not about her being a schoolteacher and her students. I’m Not a happy fan anymore! I don’t like Elisabeth’s character anymore. Fiona and hickum are adorable. I can’t stand Lucas he's hiding something. And slithers around like a snake.

I am with team Nathan. I believe Elizabeth already chose Lucas and that is why she doesn't give Nathan the time of day. She even cringed when she saw him riding up to the pond before he professed his love to her. She did the same thing with Jack when she went to take care of her sick mother back east and instead spent every unwaking moment with her old flame the guy her father wanted her to marry. It took Abigail to go there and talk sense into her. I don't trust Lucas he has guilt tripped Elizabeth with every romantic gesture. They deserve each other. I will probably quit watching because I have read all of the books in the original series and this Elizabeth is getting further and further away from the Elizabeth I respected in the series. Elizabeth and Lucas you deserve each other you are both self serving, high and mighty and spoiled little brats have a good life. Nathan you and Allie deserve much better if the writers ever allow it.

Lucas is hiding something big. Nathan was hiding something big, now it's in the open. Elizabeth is a single MOM. In that time period was an extraordinary mindset. Lucas is actually the selfish suitor. Elizabeth, sees Nathan in a father figure roll.....That creates a much strong bond in my opinion, than a spoiled rich only child mentality of Lucas...all about romance. I think Lucas is very self serving. Elizabeth/Nathan are their very best selves serving others.....incredible bonds form from serving others.

All along I have felt that Elizabeth will end up with Nathan. The very first episode of this season she tells Rosemary that she’s surprised at her feelings for Nathan. She’s always had that look on her face whenever she sees Nathan... it’s almost as if you can hear her heart skipping a beat... but timing is everything. Lucas is the flashy sports car that attracts~he also has plenty of finances that he can toss toward courting a woman as well and he has wasted no time being there~almost lurking~every single time Elizabeth finishes a conversation with Nathan. Lucas is romance. Nathan is love. Nathan would be the man that would get down and dirty on the ground and play with Little Jack while Lucas is the type that will probably send him off to boarding school. And many seem to forget that when Lucas first came to town he was a shady character and I still think that there’s some of that in his past that’s going to return. He’s a smooth talker. Always has the right thing to say at the right time. I also feel that Nathan‘s suspension before that fateful deadly mission had everything to do with him going against the Mounties ~who was his superior at his trial ~orders because he felt it was too dangerous and possibly even a suicide mission. Jack was just at the wrong place at the wrong time and it wasn’t Nathan‘s fault. Elizabeth will realize this and also deal with her TRUE honest feelings
she’s been stuffing down..that she truly is IN love with Nathan!

Team Nathan. I think her anger toward him is really her trying to convince herself hes not the one. I think Lucas is looking for more than what she will be comfortable in giving and I think its why shes so hesitant. With Lucas it seems all romance, with Nathan I see a family unit more possible.

I really don’t care anymore. Feature the other characters. Probably won’t watch in the future. Elizabeth’s scenes with Lucas show her acting like a school girl rather than a teacher and mother.

Missy that is an interesting perspective, however, I must highlight others insights into the storyline. I have been a loyal viewer since day 1. This is a story of a schoolteacher and a Mountie, and not necessarily Jack as the Mountie.
The weaving of the triangle love story has been a roller coaster this season and Nathan’s moments with Elizabeth have been short-lived and at times tense. She is finding herself through flirtatious moments and is enjoying being pampered a bit with Lucas. Lucas, however, as we have seen, in many episodes, is a businessman first and while he cares for her, she is yet another conquest. He mentioned the “settled” in HV but preferred the city.
Elizabeth is emotionally drawn to Nathan — very easy to see the exchange of emotions in their gazes. She ran to him when he returned and threw herself into his arms. I felt this was a brief insight into her real feelings. This latest hurdle will be overcome as was Jack’s when he was faced with survivor’s guilt. I see the passion in their eyes and when Elizabeth admits her feelings, it will be Nathan she truly loves. Lucas is hiding a past life as Christopher alluded to while digging the trench. I also sense there is much more to the Ft. Clay story to be unraveled, perhaps when Bill returns.
In any event, it has been a great season and the writers have left nuggets of tips and intriguing twists in each episode making loyal viewers wishing the week would fly by until the next hour of WCTH.

O
Bella, I too am a fan since E1S1.
I appreciated your insights - all good to think about and further evidence the writers have done an amazing job creating something that speaks to so many in so many different ways, so artfully with, as you say, many nuggets and twists 🙂
It has been the love story of a schoolteacher and Mountie, set within a larger framework of a whole town of people, living and interacting underneath an overarching theme of following the heart. Unlike the original book this is a series...with a need to continuously tell new and interesting stories, without a foreseeable (we hope!) end. An ongoing story isn’t necessarily held to the same literary script or rules as a story in a book or 2-hr movie. The story is fluid. Characters, who they are, the traits they show, the things they do, are free to change over time. I believe Elizabeth as the original character who brought us to Hope Valley is necessary to the stories they tell, as is Nathan as the town’s Mountie bravely protecting Hope Valley from the wilds of the Canadian frontier, but do these two characters HAVE to be together as a couple? They may well be in the end, but I don’t think they HAVE to be in order for the show to continue to tell interesting and moving stories of the heart. That said, she doesn’t have to end up with a saloonkeeper either! Point is, I don’t think THESE writers are confined to any literary box in telling their stories - let’s just hope they keep telling them for a long time!

Lucas brings out the best in Elizabeth. Her writing. The library. He truly listens and hears her. Elizath and nathan have been a relationship that elizabeth is his problem solver. A fixer. Lucas isnt that at all. He truly works hard with picnics. Books for her library. Lucas brings out the best in elizabeth.

I am a mountie fan . Nathan is a reminder of the kind of man she first chose to make a family with.Maybe the father figure for little Jack.She already sees this with his care for his niece.She knows nothing about how Lucas will interact with her child.As a Mother our children play a major part on who we choose to make a family with .Real life.

I think it is so sad that this beautiful show has turned rotten. Slow storyline, nothing really ever happening and when it does it gets dragged on and on. I am getting sick of it. Not sure if I am going to keep watching it anymore. Resolve the ongoing issues and move on to something else, PLEASE.

I believe Elizabeth will choose Nathan & that it has always been him. After revealing to Elizabeth what he has been carrying around with him all these years & the enormous guilt & devastation associated with that fateful outcome, I think this revelation will make Elizabeth ultimately admit to herself how much she truly does love Nathan & how he holds her true heart. Although she may care for Lucas & is enjoying spending time with him, I believe this relationship is based on Elizabeth trying to convince herself that she’s not in love with Nathan. Lucas is the safe choice for her &, like a few others have mentioned, it has been too easy with Lucas. Love is hard & messy & complicated & beautiful & worth fighting for. We haven’t seen this dynamic between Elizabeth & Lucas, but we have been shown glimpses sprinkled throughout the last couple seasons of this internal struggle building between both Elizabeth & Nathan. Elizabeth & Nathan are like magnets who desperately wanted not to fall in love with each other (as we now know for equally painful reasons), but they can’t help being pulled together because each holds the others heart. Nathan is a wonderful man & will make an equally wonderful father figure for little Jack as we’ve been shown throughout the last couple of seasons with their interactions. Lucas is everything Elizabeth could have had in her life when she was in Hamilton, but Nathan holds her true heart.

I am team Nathan and I use to love Elizabeth character but not so much she was this kind soul and she has turn into this person that I don't want to know playing two decent guys for her selfish gain because of that I am going to take a pause on watching the show .

O
I love this show. But I disagree with some of the fans that say this is a story about a woman and a mounty. To me this is a story about Hope Valley and those that live there. Elizabeth maybe the main story but is one more in little town.I love Elizabeth and Jack's story. It was so beautiful and romantic, those 2 characters were the epidame of true love. I think that now Elizabeth is experiencing a surprising and slow burn love story experience with Lucas. They share special moments that show Elizabeth is very much attracted to him and she loves how caring and attentive he is with her like Jack was.They share her writing interest & she loves his romantic gestures. He has win her heart because he is a good man, generous and committed to care for her. He is not pushy or selfish he has actually give her freedom to decide who she really wants and this will make her understand her feelings for him. This doesn't have to be another Elizabeth and another mounty story. She had her love story with her mounty, Jack and that should be the one and only. Some said Lucas won't give up his career for her, well he doesn't have to.He is a business man, he is not going to get killed because of his job or leave Elizabeth if send to an assignment. He will always be there for her.Nathan was going to give up her job for Elizabeth but she knew it was not what she wants because these man are their job. He will only resend it later on. Elizabeth sees Nathan as an image of Jack but she is not in love.

There is one man who holds Elizabeth’s heart, but she’s not ready to listen to her true heart.....yet. Spending time with Lucas is exciting for Elizabeth & you can tell she cares for him deeply. Concurrently, she is pushing Nathan away this season as a coping mechanism so she doesn’t have to confront her feelings for him (or her feelings surrounding Jack’s death). In turn, Nathan is harboring the guilt of knowing it should have been him in place of Jack & the pain it has caused Elizabeth....the woman he never meant to fall in love with. I think Lucas is beginning to realize that Elizabeth isn’t being truthful with herself regarding her own feelings, particularly after Elizabeth revealed to Lucas she left & didn’t say anything both times Nathan told her he loved her (when she could have easily told Nathan she didn’t feel the same about him). I can’t help but think of how Nathan gifted Elizabeth a plaque he handmade for her reading: “Always do what you are afraid to do.” I believe Elizabeth will do just that - give her heart to the man who already holds it......Nathan.💞

It’s my belief that the reason why you see so much of Lucas and Elizabeth is so you will be surprised when she eventually chooses Nathan. I believe Nathan will be her choice. As other people have mentioned when she first started with Jack things were very fiery as they are with Nathan. I do believe that she is pushing herself away from Nathan and sparking fights because she’s truly trying to push away her feelings For him. This is just televisions way of keeping you tuned in. It will never be the same as it was with Jack and Elizabeth, but I believe Nathan is the choice she will make.
11 8
-
G
I also hope that Elizabeth will not blame Nathan for Jack's death. I think Nathan will explain why he was disciplined, and the reason Jack replaced him that day. I think he will have a very good explanation and that will allow her to forgive him. I think Elizabeth may even feel that fate brought them together.

Elizabeth is a spoiled brat. She wouldn’t know a decent man if he was standing in front of her... yes.. Nathan is the decent man and never pressures her for his own liking, unlike selfish Lucas. They deserve each other.

I'm disgusted with Elizabeth's shabby treatment of Nathan. Trying to publicly humiliate him by bringing a very private subject out in public. And then to just walk away as if Nathan had ANY say in what happened. She really disappointed me!!! So much for "helpful" Elizabeth

My prediction is that Elizabeth will choose Lucas. Her memory of Jack will will remain her the one and only girl and her mounty story. Lucas and Elizabeth will grow together and do great things for Hope Valley. Hope Valley is changing and business thriving so I know Lucas will do great things for the town and Elizabeth will be the best influence on him. He will continue to encourage her writing and help her save her school. Well at least that's what I hope for. It seems there may be a Nathan/ Faith story in the future😉. It may be a Doctor/Mounty story in the horizon.....

I think it will eventually come out that Lucas is bankrolled by Elizabeth’s family to eventually get her out of Hope Valley. Her family were in one season and totally opposed to her relationship with Jack. We have not heard anything from them and Lucas’s character has always seemed a bit suspicious. The end of this season could be a great time to start that storyline and take us in to next season’s plot!

Totally disappointed in this series. Will probably not finish it. Elizabeth needs a good down to earth and family guy like Nathan. Lucas can not be trusted. Still waiting for the bad side of him to come forth.

Honestly, the story has now lost it's excitement and spark for me. Please don't put Faith with Nathan. Bring in a substitute teacher or someone really beautiful and new to run the dress shop.... Nathan deserves it. Faith and Carson belong together so don't mess that up too.

I’m done with WCTH I’ll finish out this season but I don’t plan to watch next season if there is one. I have better things to do than to watch about 15 minutes of cliffhanger soap opera every week. Too many commercials, too many cliffhangers, horrible storylines. I’ve read the book I know how it ends. Adios To a to a once enjoyed good show. I won’t be back next season!

I think that Lucas has always represented zHamilton, the place where. Elizabeth grew up and feels secure. Nathan is more representative of her current life. Their relationship has had ups snd downs while hers with Lucas has seemed pretty bland to me. I think you need a little fire in a relationship. JMHO.

I have to say season 7 was my favorite. I miss the old show runner snd found things much less choppy and more enjoyable with him at the helm.

I think Nathan will make a better choice for Elizabeth and her baby. So What if her Jack was a Mountie as well.

I agree. She shouldn't judge a future relationship based on the occupation of a previous partner. Nathan is not the same person as Jack and neither is Bill for that matter so the uniform doesn't matter. Plus Nathan is ready and willing to turn his in for her. Also if we remember back... Jack and Elizabeth didn't exactly get along well in the beginning.

I love this show and all of the characters. All very good actors!! It broke my heart when Jack left the show. The love story of Chris and Elizabeth is all good but it is really boring. I feel like to make it more interesting they needed more the uncontrollable type of feeling instead of the take it slow approach. When there is love I feel like you don't talk about taking it slow because it is undeniable and overwhelmingly uncontrollable. Although I love Chris it would be more interesting with Nathan because of all of the conflicts that outside forces in which they would have to overcome because of their consealed attraction. Maybe need to bring back an unforgotten ole flame of Nathans to jolt elizabeth's character into realizing that he might not always be there. anyway it would add some spice to the show. LOL

I still think Lucas is hiding something! (And his Mother!!). Next season, Elizabeth will give up teaching to become a “Salokn dancer” with Rosemary. That’s when Abigail will return!

If they bring Abigail back I’m done with the show for sure. I don’t know If anyone’s noticed but She was in every seen. The story is about Elizabeth not Abigail.
