Bernadette’s Final Scene: A Game Changer for Chee in Dark Winds Season 4!

by

In the concluding part of Dark Winds season 3, Bernadette’s actions seem to indicate potential improvements in Jim Chee’s future circumstances. This season has seen Bernadette embark on a challenging journey that included leaving the reservation, joining the U.S. Border Patrol, and finding herself in a drug trafficking scandal and associated cover-up. Amidst this turmoil, she was also grappling with her romantic life, attempting to distance herself from an ex-suitor while exploring new relationships.

In the third season of “Dark Winds,” Chee conveyed to Bernadette Manuelito that he had previously made mistakes, one of which was not expressing his feelings to Bernie. He confessed his love for her and his desire to be in a relationship with her. At that point, Bernadette was hesitant and struggling, as she was newly involved with Ivan Muños and wanted to establish independence from the reservation. However, by the end of “Dark Winds” season 3, it’s evident that Bernadette has moved on from Ivan. Yet, it remains unclear if Bernadette is prepared for a relationship with Chee. The final scene of the season, though, suggests otherwise.

Dark Winds Season 3’s Ending Hints Bernadette Is Ready To Be With Chee

She’s Cleared The Last Emotional Hurdle

In the final scene of season 3 of Dark Winds, Bernadette arrives at Chee’s house, and he’s working outside when he sees her. Instead of stopping his work and greeting her enthusiastically, he feigns nonchalance, but a hidden smile betrays his joy that Bernadette has returned to the reservation. Similarly, Bernadette breaks into a secretive smile as she looks at Chee, signaling a change in her feelings and suggesting that they are about to embark on a new chapter in their relationship.

What Bernadette & Chee’s Potential Relationship Might Mean For Dark Winds Season 4

It Could Impact Multiple Characters

The development of a romantic relationship between Chee and Bernadette could significantly influence the interpersonal relationships within the cast of Dark Winds during its fourth season. To begin with, they must learn to adapt to working together in a new capacity, no longer merely as colleagues but also as lovers. This shift might affect their actions and choices in perilous situations, or their approach towards minor professional disagreements. It remains undetermined how Joe Leaphorn will react, given his role as their supervisor and the fatherly bond he shares with both of them.

Exploring how the dynamic between Joe and Emma in “Dark Winds” might evolve narratively could involve some uncertainty, given that this season saw Emma depart from Joe. The accumulated stressors, such as Joe’s emotional turmoil and his shutting her out, along with his actions towards B.J. Vines and his involvement in the criminal investigation, led to her breaking point. However, there remains a possibility for reconciliation between them in “Dark Winds”. Yet, since the show primarily focuses on crime-related aspects, the relationship between Bernadette and Chee might consume all the allocated screen time for romantic storylines. If this is the case, resolving Joe and Emma’s marital issues may be delayed until after the next season, if they are ever resolved at all.
