“#Jesse James Keitel Explains Jerrie’s Farewell From ‘Big Sky’<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

[Warning: The below contains MAJOR spoilers for Big Sky<\/em> Season 2 Episode 5 \u201cMother Nurture.\u201d]<\/strong><\/p>\n

The November 11 episode of the ABC drama Big Sky<\/em> has plenty of action. It opens with the show\u2019s two heroines Cassie (Kylie Bunbury) and Jenny (Katheryn Winnick) being shot at by drug cartel member Donno (Ryan O\u2019Nan), while teenagers Max (Madeline Keintz), Harper (Troy Leigh-Anne Johnson), Bridger (Jeremy Ray Taylor) and Madison (Lola Skye Reid) try to escape dirty cop Deputy Harvey (Michael Malarkey, The Vampire Diaries<\/em>).<\/p>\n

One character not involved in all of this, however, is Jerrie (Jesse James Keitel) \u2013 Season 1\u2019s kidnapp<\/a>ing victim who now works with Cassie as a private investigator. She gets her own significant story arc this episode when her estranged father (Jeff Kober) shows up, and says that her mom has cancer. The result is that she leaves at the end of the episode in what\u2019s being positioned as the character\u2019s exit, although Jerrie and her father will be briefly seen again in the December 16 winter finale.<\/p>\n

TV Insider spoke with Keitel to discuss this farewell for her fan-favorite character, as well as Jerrie\u2019s love triangle with U.S. marshall Mark Lindor (Omar Metwally) and Cassie, and her search for her former kidnapper Ronald Pergman (Brian Geraghty).<\/p>\n

In this episode, Jerrie\u2019s not really involved in the action surrounding the big case but she has her own big character moment that\u2019s going on for her.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jesse James Keitel:<\/strong> When her dad shows up and then takes her by surprise, it really throws her. A lot of issues from her past come to the surface, and it\u2019s something she has to grapple with right there in the moment. I don\u2019t know if she was really emotionally ready to do that, but thankfully she got the opportunity to.<\/p>\n

And we learn through this episode that her parents kicked her out of the house when she came out as trans.<\/strong><\/p>\n

So, in a very early episode of the first season, I believe it\u2019s established in the second or third episode, it was mentioned to Danielle, played by Natalie Alyn Lind, that she was kicked out at 14 and has been living in a trailer park, living on her own, doing what she had to do to survive. I think there\u2019s a direct correlation to how when her parents kicked her out, she ended up in Ronald\u2019s truck. She turned to sex work like a lot of people in the LGBTQ community have to do sometimes, and it ultimately put her in a really scary, dangerous position that almost got her killed. I think she directly blames her parents for where and how her life turned out, and the fact that her life kind of turned around is a testament to her and her strength.<\/p>\n

She\u2019s in a very different place in her life than she was when she was that 14-year-old person.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yeah, come on character arc.<\/p>\n

She leaves at the end of the episode to go see her mom. Does she even know how she\u2019s going to approach this? Because she does have some perspective now of everything that\u2019s happened.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I think there\u2019s an endless amount of possibilities for Jerrie here including whether she decides to rebuild a relationship with her family, whether she chooses to just be there, make peace, say goodbye and move on. Or if there\u2019s the opportunity for her to allow them to right their wrongs. I don\u2019t think she\u2019s got that plan, she\u2019s definitely going to just follow their lead, because she\u2019s definitely still got high walls up as she certainly should.<\/p>\n

Yes, so I assume Jerrie is going to be gone for maybe the next few episodes. Do we know when she\u2019s coming back? How long is she going to be gone for?<\/strong><\/p>\n

You\u2019ll definitely miss her, but I can\u2019t say you won\u2019t see her again.<\/p>\n

OK, and especially because we have this big moment at the end of the episode where she actually confesses to Lindor how she feels. Where does she get that courage from in that moment because up until then she knows he likes Cassie?<\/strong><\/p>\n

There\u2019s always been a chemistry between the two of them and I think her leaving, it\u2019s like \u2018hey dude, what\u2019s going on?\u2019 She\u2019s leaving to go make amends with her family. She\u2019s overcome such a huge incredible obstacle. He\u2019s really been such a strong mentor figure for her, her advancement from office secretary to private investigator on the team with Cassie is really a lot due to how he treated her and respected her, which is something her family never did. He gave her the courage to also go back home. He encouraged her to do it. I think in that moment it\u2019s just pure honesty. She\u2019s got nothing else to lose.<\/p>\n

Yeah, that\u2019s true. She\u2019s leaving so it\u2019s now or never. And he reciprocates her feelings. I love the way you put it because I guess they really do bring out the best in each other. There\u2019s so much affection and respect there. Is there a relationship in the future for them or we can\u2019t really say?<\/strong><\/p>\n

There\u2019s a lot of possibilities here, a lot of which depends on what Lindor does when Jerrie\u2019s not around.<\/p>\n

\"JESSE<\/p>\n

ABC\/Michael Moriatis<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

We\u2019ll just say that Cassie\u2019s still there and she\u2019s not.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Listen, Cassie\u2019s still around and Jerrie isn\u2019t.<\/p>\n

Yes.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Who knows where that\u2019s going to go.<\/p>\n

For sure. What do you want to come through about Jerrie to viewers in this episode? I think you play her with such quiet empathy.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Thank you. I hope people care about her and the struggles she had to go through because it\u2019s real, and it\u2019s something I\u2019ve worked really hard to showcase on the show. [Long pause<\/em>] Sorry, I\u2019m actually getting very emotional. You know, I know Jerrie Kennedy. I think a lot of queer people do. There are parts of Jerrie\u2019s story that we\u2019ve all been through, and to see her overcome the obstacles she\u2019s had to inspires me, and I hope it inspires the queer people at home who may be watching, and their families who may not understand but can hopefully empathize and that\u2019s it. I want them to see Jerrie as a person who life has dealt a lot of really s**ty cards to that she\u2019s overcome with such grace and strength and\u2026 she\u2019s still got hopes and dreams and fears and desires, and a family that\u2019s put her through a lot of shit and she\u2019s still come out a winner on the other end.<\/p>\n

I love that we\u2019ve been able to see her come so far. She didn\u2019t just disappear after the kidnapping was over. We\u2019ve been able to see she has real skills as a private investigator.<\/strong><\/p>\n

David E. Kelley set up a really great backstory for this character, and I\u2019m really grateful that Elwood Reid allowed us to really dive into that and deepen it and explore that because it\u2019s rich and it\u2019s good and, you know, when it\u2019s right it\u2019s right. Jerrie is a real one.<\/p>\n

And she\u2019s taken over the search for Ronald, her and Lindor, pretty much this season because Cassie and Jenny really had to step away. I think they were a little bit too close to it. She\u2019s been hitting a lot of dead ends. What does being the person who\u2019s taking charge of this case mean to her? <\/strong><\/p>\n

That\u2019s the hardest part about Jerrie leaving, is knowing that she\u2019s really close to finding Ronald. At least she feels like she is, and so, of course, right when she\u2019s at a pivotal career moment, a pivotal personal journey she\u2019s on, her family comes in and ruins it again. For her, it\u2019s personal, and more so than anyone else because she not only had some bizarre bond with Ronald, but she also was kidnapped by him. She\u2019s got a really lovely line in the previous episode saying, what about the girls who aren\u2019t as lucky, the ones who don\u2019t get the opportunity to get revenge? The fact that she gets to walk through the world with that intention in mind saying, \u2018I\u2019m going to help the people that need me to help them.\u2019 It is badass, I love her.<\/p>\n

\"BIG<\/p>\n

ABC\/Michael Moriatis<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

She\u2019s so close too. She knows about Wolf, [Rick Legarski from season 1\u2019s twin, also played by John Carroll Lynch]. She\u2019s on the right path.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In an earlier episode when she\u2019s on a little date with Lindor, or at least she thinks she is, they mention her past as a sex worker and how there are things she learned from that that she can use in her job as a private investigator. She had to be observant, she had to know who she could and couldn\u2019t trust, and that\u2019s why the Ronald thing kind of threw her a bit. She probably thought she was a pretty good judge of character\u2026we all know how that ended up.<\/p>\n

But she\u2019s repurposed the skills now. I\u2019m not ready for her to be gone, but I hope we see her again very soon.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yeah, she\u2019s\u2026 you\u2019ll just have to watch to find out.<\/p>\n
