Mel also works for Doc Mullins’ (Tim Matheson’s) practice, however the two have their disagreements.

Yes, he’s OK.

When a young guy comes up at the inn asking for Jo Ellen’s help in finding his grandpa, she recognizes him as Doc right once. However, Doc and Hope never had children. Is it possible that he is the offspring of Doc’s long-ago liaison with Charmaine’s mom?

The fate of Lizzie and Ricky is uncertain.

Ricky has been accepted into the Marine Corps. After telling Lizzie, she claims she would have backed him had he not broken up with her first. However, she no longer has faith in him. In the meanwhile, Lizzie’s ex-boyfriend Parker reappears and declares his love for her.

A few additional details may be found in the official description provided by Netflix: “Mel enters Season 4 with a positive outlook, despite not knowing whether her baby is from her departed husband, Mark or Jack. She’s been wanting to have children for a long time, and now she’s one step closer to realizing her goal. Paternity questions continue to haunt Jack despite his enthusiastic support. The entrance of an attractive new doctor, who wants to raise a family of his own, complicates things.

“It will take a long time for Hope to recover from her brain damage and the emotional toll it will take on both her and Doc. Calvin’s violent criminal network and Brie’s deeper friendship with Mike are unintentionally intertwined as Brie pursues her goal of establishing Calvin’s innocence. Although Preacher has found new love, he can’t help but want to be reunited with Christopher and Paige in the future. “
