Mel: I mean, you could do both.

Mel: Who's asking?
Everett: Her father. You look so much like your mother. Seeing you just broke my heart all over again. I didn't know what to say.

Doc: I may not be your father, biological or otherwise, but I am always here for you, and I consider myself lucky be. And if this guy doesn't, then he's a fool, and he is the one who is missing out.
Mel: You're right. He is missing out. But, um, there is actually someone else I wanted to walk me down the aisle anyway.
Mel: Charmaine, I'm really sorry. How did you get mixed up with him?
Charmaine: Like how all mistakes are made, a mixture of sadness and anger and copious amounts of alcohol. And I was mad at Jack.
Mel: Are you Everett Reid?
Everett: Who's asking?
Mel: His daughter.
I don't know, maybe this is a mistake. It's a lot to spring on someone on Christmas Eve or at all. Maybe I should just leave the past in the past.
Preacher: So I got some news; my guy found your father.
Mel: Wow, that was fast.
Jack: What was fast?
Mel: Um, we did it. We found my father.
Jack: That's amazing, where is he?
Preacher: Apparently, he is right here in Virgin River.
As long as we're together, we are home.
I have always thought that if I didn't carry my own child, I would be missing out on something. But the more Jack and I have been talking about it, the more I realized being a parent is so much more than how you got there. So if you decide you want to be a mom someday, you'll find a way.
Joey: You're not going to believe this, but I found this whole stack of letters and postcards and letters to Mom from Virgin River.
Mel: What? Mom knew someone in Virgin River?
Joey: Apparently, quite well. Mel, I've been reading this all morning, and they're love letters.
Mel: What?
Joey: They were having an affair in Virgin River. And I think this guy might be your father.
Jack: I know how hard it is. I know, believe me, I know, But Mel, we can keep going too. We can still have our dream, Mel. It may not look the same way we thought it would. It may not happen in the same time frame as we expected, but it can happen. Our children may not have your mother's eyes, but it doesn't mean they can't have her compassion or her cool taste in music. We can teach them that if it's still what you want.
Mel: Yeah, it still is. It's what I want.
Jack: Can we talk? I mean, you're the one who told me to open up to you, so don't push me away.
Mel: Honey, I'm not pushing you away.
Jack: You're running away. You're literally running away. Look, I get it. You're hurting, I'm hurting too, but you're not alone in this. I'm with you every step of the way.
