More Detail:
The first episode of VIRGIN RIVER’s sixth season sees the show’s characters getting ready for new chapters in their lives, from Jack and Mel’s upcoming wedding and her growing relationship with her father to Preacher’s court date for a murder trial in which he is the prime suspect.
The episode opens with Mel and her friends attending a wedding dress fitting. However, disaster strikes when the store where she ordered the dress gives her the wrong one. Her “sewing circle” friends promise to fix the dress in time for the wedding and ask some pointed questions about Everett, Mel’s father, and the tense relationship he has with Vernon, the town’s doctor.
Later, Mel and Jack, her husband-to-be, have dinner with Everett, who is unwilling to share much about his past, including any details about Mel’s mother and their relationship. While eating, Mel notices Everett is having difficulty breathing, but he waves her off.
Elsewhere, Preacher prepares for his court date. He is being accused of murdering Wes, an ex-cop who was physically abusing his ex-wife, Paige. Jack worries about what will happen to his friend but promises to stand by his side, no matter what.
Mel goes to Everett to raise concerns about his breathing problems, and the two argue. Everett starts experiencing chest pain, and Mel rushes him to the clinic. Vernon diagnoses him with Atrial fibrillation, but the pair’s relationship continues to be argumentative. When Mel takes him home, Everett promises to open up more about his relationship with her mother.
The first day of Preacher’s trial arrives, and Jack goes to the courthouse to support him. At the last minute, his attorney, Brie, is given an updated witness list — the prosecution is calling Jack to testify against Preacher.
