Who Was Lark On The Phone With At The End Of Season 5?

After Brady helped rescue Hazel during the wildfires earlier in Season 5, he (and viewers) got to know Hazel and her mom Lark a bit as he and Brie drifted apart. Before the Part 2 time jump revealed that Brady and Lark were full-on dating (things are now so serious that Lark wants him to meet her mom!) we knew that Lark was a single mom, but we didn’t have details on Hazel’s dad — until now.

Judging by that unexpected finale phone call, it seems Hazel’s dad is none other than Jimmy! Don’t remember anyone on Virgin River named Jimmy? The town is packed with people and the cast is growing larger every season, so we get it. Here’s your official Jimmy refresher.
Wait, Who Is Jimmy On Virgin River Again?
Jimmy, played by actor Ian Tracey, is yet another intimidating crime-connected man in Virgin River. When Mel arrived in town, Jimmy was extremely tight with the recently revealed father of Charmaine’s twins, Calvin (David Cubitt). But when Brady started working for Calvin and receiving more and more of his attention, Jimmy’s jealousy took over and he and Brady started to clash.

After Jack was mysteriously shot in Season 2, the town briefly thought Jimmy was responsible. But police found no evidence, and though Jimmy threatened Jack and Mel, he was ultimately released from custody after presenting an alibi. Jimmy eventually landed himself in prison and Brady was wrongfully arrested for the attempted murder of Jack. So the two got into a fight in the prison yard, which resulted in a brush with death for Brady after Jimmy’s cousin stabbed him!
Later in the season, after Brady recovered and was set free, he tried to assist Mike and get Jimmy to turn on Calvin and cut a deal with the FBI. “I am walking free, and you? You’re just a dog in a cage,” Brady told Jimmy. “Calvin doesn’t need you anymore. How long you think he waits before he puts you down?”

Though Jimmy acted tough in the moment, Mike later informed Brady that he took the deal and gave them a lead on Calvin’s possible location. It’s clear the two still have unresolved beef, though. And now that Calvin is free, perhaps Jimmy decided to reignite his feud with Brady — with a little help from Lark.
