Who are JJ’s parents? Outer Banks season 4 twist explained
As a devoted fan of Outer Banks, I can’t help but feel like I just stumbled upon a treasure map with the revelation about JJ’s lineage! The twist in season 4 has taken me by storm and sent ripples through the Pogue universe.
Hey, Outer Banks enthusiasts! I hope you’re all doing well after enjoying the first five episodes of season 4. If you’ve stumbled upon this post, it means you’ve already devoured part 1, and honestly, who can resist such a temptation? We’ve been eagerly anticipating the comeback of this exhilarating Netflix show, and now it’s here once more. And let me tell you, it didn’t disappoint with its unexpected twists. SPOILER ALERT: The following discussion contains spoilers from episodes 1 to 5.
The significant twist at the end of “Albatross,” episode 5 from season 4 of Outer Banks, is that we discover JJ was raised by parents not biologically his own. As it turns out, his true lineage was disclosed in the closing scenes by his father, Luke. It’s been unveiled that JJ’s biological parents are Larissa Genrette and Charles Groff. This means that Wes Genrette, the one who hired the Pogues to search for the amulet, is JJ’s grandfather.
The situation was both shocking yet predictable in a way. At first, when we were introduced to the Genrettes at the start of the season, this particular twist wasn’t something I had anticipated within the storyline. But as the narrative progressed, with recurring references to Larissa and Charles’ child, the Albatross, Wes’ letter being delivered to JJ, and our beloved character Pogue searching for Luke, it became clear where the plot was heading, and I could sense that a revelation was on its way.
Indeed, you might recall that Wes holds a chilling belief: his lineage has been plagued with a curse for over three centuries, stemming from hauntings and tragic deaths at the hands of Blackbeard’s ghost, specifically Elizabeth’s. Elizabeth was Blackbeard’s spouse. This unsettling situation arises because one of Wes’ forefathers, Francis Genrette, was the officer responsible for capturing Blackbeard and ending the pirate’s life along with that of his wife. Before passing away, Elizabeth requested that Francis hand over an amulet given to her by her husband, but he refused, potentially incurring the wrath of the ghost ever since.
Wes explains that his daughter Larissa, who happens to be Chandler’s spouse, perished aboard the Albatross under the influence of Elizabeth’s spectral presence, much like other members of the Genrette family. Elizabeth’s ghost has already appeared to him, indicating a grim prognosis for his life. They believe that the curse on their family can be lifted by retrieving the amulet and returning it to Elizabeth. This is why he employs the Pogues to seek the treasure.
If you revisit episode 2 of Outer Banks season 4, you’ll notice that Wes and Chandler seem familiar with JJ. This raises a question: why did Larissa and Charles send JJ away, claiming their baby perished on the boat with her? This point is yet to be clarified, but it might be because they wanted to shield him from the curse and Elizabeth’s spirit.
How the big JJ twist changes everything for the Pogues in Outer Banks season 4
In the upcoming season 4 of Outer Banks, how will the revelation about JJ’s true parents affect the Pogues now? Given that JJ is a likable character but not exactly known for his emotional stability, this new information could be life-altering and difficult to process. It may lead him to behave in ways that are unexpected or illogical as he grapples with this significant revelation.
Additionally, it should be noted that his grandfather, Wes, has passed away, leaving only Chandler as the remaining family member. Chandler is currently working with Hollis on a secretive plan to develop Goat Island, and it seems they may be drawing Rafe into their plans as well. There are numerous unanswered questions surrounding this situation.
Despite being consistently outmaneuvered by Lightner and the Captain, The Pogues remain resolute in their quest for hidden treasure. With JJ now aware of the truth behind the curse, his resolve might intensify even more as he strives to disprove it. What if, in reality, Elizabeth’s ghost is watching, and JJ becomes her next target? After all, he’s the only Genrette left at this moment. This could send JJ on a personal treasure hunt, with his companions by his side every step of the way to offer their support.
I can’t wait to find out what happens next in Outer Banks season 4 part 2, as we explore how the storylines from part 1 will develop and intertwine. There’s a lot for JJ to process, and Luke still has more backstory to share. It’s intriguing to consider that, had JJ grown up with wealth instead of an abusive father, he might have had loving parents. Everyone speaks highly of Larissa, but it’s tough to imagine JJ as a Kook!
The second part of “Outer Banks” Season 4 is set to premiere on Netflix this coming Thursday, November 7, 2024. Don’t forget to catch up on all our recaps and reviews from the first half of the season too!
