Dutton Ranch - Season 1 Episode 5
Transcript
00:05You
00:05Must be one of those days that follow you to the grave. If either one of you want to walk,
00:09I won't hold it against you. We're with you
00:14How does this happen? Foot and mouth. It's got to be the new bull. Cattlebroker, you fucked us, baby. All
00:20of that paperwork forged
00:25I don't know how we're gonna tell Carter. The prettiest one I've ever seen
00:30Carter has a pure heart. If you fuck with it, I will make your life a living hell. What's your
00:34day rate, Chief?
00:35Would it be your pain? Oh, Scoot.
00:39I named Rosina after the warrior princess. Someone at the tent pedal knows more than they're saying. That's a pretty
00:46serious accusation. Yeah, so has disappeared a man.
00:49Let me take over. Let me do the job for you. I wish I could, Keo. I wish I could.
00:55You sold me a sick book.
00:58You got 30 seconds to get the fuck out of Rio Paloma. If I ever fucking see your face again,
01:02you're dead.
01:21It sure is quiet, isn't it?
01:25Ain't a ranch without a herd, sweetheart.
01:29We'll fill these pastures again one day. It might just take us a minute, that's all.
01:38Yeah.
01:44Carter still hasn't spoken to me.
01:48I should have told him.
01:52You ought to just give him some time. He'll come around.
01:58You sure about this?
02:02Honey, it'll pay the bills. We'll put food on the table.
02:07Till we come up with a plan.
02:10We'll come up with a plan.
02:11We'll come up with a plan.
02:15It's not of you.
02:16Love you.
02:29You're all right.
02:47Come on, man.
02:50If you'd like to take the grand tour of a lonely house, that once was home, sweet home.
03:04It's Bueller's son, Joaquin.
03:07No number easy, but he's reasonable.
03:15Come on, Joaquin.
03:18There's Rip Wheeler.
03:20Bueller wants to meet him.
03:22He's expecting you.
03:23We didn't fix the time, but I ain't ever caught your mother off guard.
03:30Come on.
03:35Never ceases to amaze the
03:38shit wealthy waste their wealth on.
03:40Yeah.
03:42She wants to speak with you.
03:44Alone.
03:46Okay.
03:47Godspeed. I wait for you in the truck.
04:02I don't normally take meetings at this hour.
04:06Whoever mentioned that, I might be able to help you.
04:09How?
04:13Oh, I hear you manage the Yellowstone?
04:16Yes, ma'am. 25 years.
04:18Uh-huh. Then you bought the Edwards ranch with the Dutton girl.
04:21My wife, Beth. Yeah.
04:22Well, it's good land. It's better cattle. Sit down.
04:30You ever form in two properties?
04:33All due respect, ma'am, your ranch and my ranch put together and a quarter with the Yellowstone is.
04:39Oh, so you're a man with an appetite.
04:41No, I'm just a man who likes to work.
04:43Well, that's an attractive quality.
04:46If you don't mind me asking, who is, uh, Rob Will?
04:50My son. Y'all have met?
04:52Briefly, yeah.
04:54Well, let's just say he's on an indefinite vacation.
04:57What else did Everett tell you?
04:59Which part?
05:01About meeting help.
05:03Oh, uh, he mentioned that your current form, and these are his words, of course, is a fucking idiot.
05:11Ah, McKinney. He doesn't pull punches, does he?
05:14No, ma'am, he doesn't.
05:17Ah, well.
05:20We've got 75,000 acres, about 2,200 head, Mexican crossbreed.
05:27We sell to big box retailers, but mismanagement has been a bit of a bugaboo of late.
05:33Well, would you like me to fix your problem?
05:35Well, I wonder, can you?
05:37If it's ranching, I can, yes, ma'am.
05:38My margins have grown razor thin. I need someone who implements efficiency.
05:44A man who works smarter, not just harder.
05:47Well, I can do both.
05:48I like a tight-lipped ship.
05:51Rio Paloma loves to gossip.
05:53Well, ma'am, other people's business, it ain't mine.
06:00Well, a few names are as revered as John Dutton's. I suppose if you work for him for 25 years,
06:06you can work for anyone.
06:10I also know that despite its tragic end, the Yellowstone was not a three-ring circus.
06:17No, I wouldn't allow it.
06:20Do whatever it takes to get my ranch in order, and I'll pay you handsomely, not just with my money,
06:25but with my loyalty.
06:31I'll be here at 4.30 a.m.
06:34I'll be here at 4.30 a.m.
06:34Pleasure to meet you, Mr. Jackson.
06:41I'll be here at 4.30 a.m.
06:44I'll be here at 4.30 a.m.
06:47I'll be here at 4.30 a.m.
06:545.IRGINIA
06:555.IRGINIA
06:555.IRGINIA
06:565.IRGINIA
07:20Oh, my God.
07:50You know, this isn't our only option.
07:53I could make some calls.
07:56Dallas, New York.
07:58I could be earning within a month.
08:01But I'd be gone.
08:05No.
08:08I don't want that, darling.
08:12I want you next to me.
08:15Well, I'm always next to you.
08:20I'll see you in a bit, Rudy.
08:36I'll see you in a bit, Rudy.
09:19I'll see you in a bit.
11:04I found out just what it was in the song.
11:11Who is that?
11:14Yeah, who the fuck are you?
11:18There are calves to wean.
11:22Get your gear together and get your asses in the saddle.
11:28We all got ten minutes.
11:35Wait, I know you.
11:36From the gas station.
11:48This is fucking bullshit.
12:09Ma'am?
12:11Yeah?
12:12Horses are cared for.
12:14Anything else I can do?
12:15You can stop calling me, ma'am.
12:19I got a name.
12:21Oh, okay.
12:22Just know that no work's beneath me.
12:32He'd have liked you.
12:33Who?
12:35My dad.
12:37Sure would have liked to have met him.
12:50Want one?
12:53Got one.
13:03Not much of a ranch anymore.
13:14I keep looking for the herd.
13:18You know, like they're still here.
13:21Take away something you see every day.
13:24The sun, birds, wind even.
13:31The brain can't quite catch up.
13:38Is it 15 years you were inside?
13:42It's a long fucking time.
13:46What'd you miss the most?
13:49Lots of things.
13:53But mostly the peace and quiet of a lonely night.
13:58Yeah, I'd miss that.
14:02Not sure I'm meant for peace, though.
14:09Me neither.
14:13But they say God's ways are mysterious.
14:18Yeah.
14:20Mystery's right out there.
14:23For me, anyway.
14:26Right here.
14:30Land's as good a guy as any.
14:34Maybe better.
14:40We keep looking, then.
14:43Keep drawing, that's for sure.
14:50Hey, whatever you're working on over there, Beth.
14:56I hope it works.
14:58It's fucking better.
15:10Come on, start turning them out.
15:17Follow him back.
15:31Let's go.
15:34He's on my way.
15:37Yeah.
15:44Hey, hey, hey.
15:47Hey, hey.
15:49Hey.
15:49Find the guy.
15:50Hey.
15:53Hey.
15:54Hey.
15:54Hey.
15:56Hey.
15:57Hey.
15:59Hey.
15:59Fucking son of a bitch, I know a spider web he just walked in, too.
16:02Yeah, well, it's past time to ween these calves.
16:04Fuck, Tommy, you think I didn't know that?
16:06Fucking talking.
16:07Hey, go get them pears.
16:08Ah, yes, sir.
16:12Hey!
16:36Let's go.
17:09I thought you could use a little pick-me-up.
17:11It's not too soon?
17:13Well, some days too soon's all we got.
17:18Okay, girl.
17:22How is she?
17:23She's doing great, you know.
17:25Like you said, this girl's got spirit.
17:29You got it. You got it. There you go.
17:31Okay.
17:33There you go. Good job.
17:36Good girl. Good girl.
17:40Come on.
17:46Come on.
17:51Oh.
18:00Oh my God. How many will she eat?
18:04As many as you feed her, but Dwight limits her to two a day.
18:07You're damn straight. Who the hell wants a fat leopard?
18:13Hey, vegan.
18:15You sure you don't want one of these cold boys?
18:21Damn, I thought Nanny's supposed to be chatty.
18:24You're telling me.
18:28You seem good.
18:31I'm okay.
18:34I hired Rick who's at the ranch this morning.
18:39Yeah.
18:40Uh, he can't know that I'm not at school.
18:43I'm not telling.
18:46All right.
18:49Let's go.
18:50Shit. All right.
18:53What about this?
18:54Mm-hmm.
18:55Wow.
18:56Let's go.
18:59Sir?
19:00Damn, boy.
19:01You're in trouble.
19:04Oh, shit.
19:05Cheers.
19:06But it's a good kind of trouble.
19:10Oh, yeah.
19:11It's time to go.
19:14Come on.
19:14Let's go.
19:15Not ready.
19:16I wasn't asking.
19:18I'm going to need to break balls, coach.
19:20I wasn't talking to you.
19:21Let's go.
19:23All righty, then.
19:24Mary fucking Poppins, man.
19:26You think I was the fucking president's daughter, right?
19:29Hmm.
19:30Sorry.
19:32Not your fault.
19:38Man.
19:41It was nice to meet you.
19:43Nice meeting you.
19:54Boy, that woman is going to break your heart into a thousand pieces.
20:00And it's going to be the best goddamn feeling you ever had.
20:05Sly dog.
20:07Cheers.
20:13Hey, baby.
20:17Get your horses watered, and then we're back at it.
20:24Hey, where the fuck's my apology?
20:25You looking to get your other arm broke, boy?
20:27I'm looking for answers for Wes and Whitney, you son of a bitch.
20:30That beating's all you're ever going to get.
20:31Oh!
20:39What'd y'all do to him?
20:40Get off me!
20:41Get them!
20:41Get them!
20:42Get them!
20:46They're my friends, motherfucker!
20:48Yeah, hold up.
20:49Yeah, hold up.
20:50Yeah, hold up.
20:51Like I said,
20:54get your fucking horses watered,
20:56and then we're back at it.
21:10You heard from Rip?
21:15You don't like it.
21:18Him working the ten pedal?
21:19Well, what do you think?
21:23But he's doing it for us.
21:25Well, he's got a family to take care of.
21:28He's a lucky man.
21:31I'm not sure about that.
21:34That man has lost more than he'd ever admit.
21:39You know, he devoted his life to the Yellowstone.
21:42This, this place was supposed to be his time.
21:47His ranch.
21:51He is smart.
21:53He listens and he leads.
21:56Beulah's the lucky one.
21:59Beulah got you worried?
22:01I don't fucking trust her.
22:04Well, she is complicated.
22:06But the truth of the matter is,
22:08she needs a decent foreman.
22:10And she's burned through three in the past year alone.
22:14She won't burn through Rip.
22:18I hope not.
22:20She won't.
22:33You ready?
22:35Done all I can, Beth.
22:37He's all yours now.
22:48You're welcome.
22:53You're very welcome.
22:55Good.
23:19There we go.
23:23How long are you going to keep up this fugitive's life?
23:27Huh?
23:29But folks ain't changed their mind about that school thing yet, have they?
23:35Well,
23:36I mean, not to them.
23:38Well, I says I'm a man.
23:40Maybe they just don't want you growing up so fast.
23:43Growing up fast is highly fucking overrated.
23:48Either way,
23:50no cows left a cowboy now.
23:54What the fuck are you talking about?
23:57They got sick.
23:59Sick?
23:59How?
24:00I don't know.
24:02They're gone.
24:05Shit.
24:09That's harsh.
24:11Wish I could go back to Monsanto.
24:13That's the thing.
24:15You've got time, Chief.
24:16You've got time to discover a lot of things.
24:19You don't fucking realize how young you are until you get older, and they're too fucking late.
24:24Why not let your folks look after you for a little while longer until you get things, or some things,
24:30figured out?
24:33Otherwise, you're just a fucking day trasher without a horse.
24:41I can fend for myself, all right?
24:43It's the only thing I'm pretty good at.
24:51All right.
24:52That's good.
24:53Good for you.
24:56I want your fend for us, Buzz, while old Dwight, count some sheep.
25:29I want your fend for you.
25:47I want your fend for you.
25:47Did you see you got that horse on it?
25:49Let's go down south.
25:53Let's go down down there, honey.
25:54What are you, bullshitting it?
26:05Hey.
26:06Yeah?
26:07Come sit down.
26:17What's your name, boy?
26:19Austin.
26:21Austin?
26:22Who is Wes?
26:24Buddy, man.
26:27I work there, too.
26:29And?
26:32Yeah, just up and disappeared.
26:36My wife and kids are going missing, too.
26:41How long ago?
26:43A couple weeks.
26:50You can go on and get cleaned.
27:12All right, here we go.
27:37Go pack your shit.
27:44Go pack your fucking shit, kid.
27:55The Jacksons are going to chew you up, spit you out, forget you ever had a name.
28:04Go get your pay, and get the fuck out of here.
28:16Fuck all y'all.
28:24Especially you.
28:26All right, what, what?
28:37If it's serious about it?
28:40instructions.
28:40Shh.
28:45Hey.
28:47Hey.
28:50Let's go.
29:08Dwight. Dwight.
29:14Hey.
29:17Oh, shit.
29:20Fucking skunks at our loan party. God damn it. Motherfucker.
29:26Hey, we gonna be okay?
29:29You'll be good, Chief. Just listen to you, Mama. Shit.
29:34And don't we like the what?
29:36Where you going?
29:38Adios.
29:39Pass on the floor. Arms and legs. Spread.
29:42Whoa.
29:51Fuck you.
29:55Fuck you.
29:57Fuck you.
29:57Fuck you.
30:01Fuck you.
30:11Fuck you.
30:32Stop. Get down. I'll shoot.
31:00Oh, right.
31:08He had a knife.
31:10Yeah, I think he did.
31:11Damn near cut me.
31:12Oh, Christ.
31:39Dinner's on the table.
31:41Well, thank you, man, but I believe my wife's got dinner waiting for me.
31:45I smoked an 18-hour brisket.
31:48Oh, yeah?
31:49All right, well, I guess I'll be up in a little while.
31:51All right, of course you will.
31:53You're a man with an appetite.
32:06Why?
32:08What happened?
32:09You know what the fuck happened.
32:10I did the job just like Miss Beulah told me, and y'all up and replaced me?
32:15Circumstances have changed.
32:16Well, I'll tell you what hadn't changed.
32:17A dead fucking cowboy named Wes Ayers.
32:20That sounds dangerous to close to a threat.
32:24And you were the last one to see him alive.
32:26Your brother pulled the trigger.
32:28Are you sure?
32:29Because you had the gun.
32:31It's hard to tell whose prince they're going to find.
32:34You threatened me now.
32:35Just stating facts.
32:38Well, here's a fact for you.
32:41I didn't forget about y'all's cattle.
32:44And I didn't forget why Wes took that bullet.
32:53There's two ways to leave the ranch.
32:56Chet.
33:02Choose wisely.
33:04Choose wisely.
33:16Choose wisely.
33:19Choose wisely.
33:19Choose wisely.
33:20Choose wisely.
33:20Choose wisely.
33:20Choose wisely.
33:20Choose wisely.
33:20Choose wisely.
33:20Choose wisely.
33:23Choose wisely.
33:33Choose wisely.
33:44Hey, honey.
33:45Hey.
33:47Just checking on you.
33:49You'll be back soon?
33:50No, I'm going to stay for dinner.
33:52Okay.
33:53Oh, you do what you need to do.
33:54Yeah, I'll call you in a few hours.
33:56Okay, bye.
33:57Bye, Peter.
33:58Talk soon.
34:03Bye.
34:33Bye.
34:45Dwight White was no good.
34:48He was a drunkard, insurance fraudster, and a thief.
34:52Man stole from the sick and the elderly.
34:56It was cow shit.
34:58Cow shit stuck to the hill of this county's boot and was bound to get scraped off one way or
35:01another.
35:02He was my friend.
35:06Son, I think grief is clouding your judgment.
35:09It's okay.
35:10It happens to the best of us.
35:14You killed him.
35:18This is your second time in my jail, which makes you a repeat offender like your buddy Dwight.
35:26So I would think real hard about where that got him.
35:33People are going to have questions about that.
35:35Smart people don't ask dangerous questions, Carter.
35:41How smart are you, son?
35:46I don't want my folks to know.
35:49Then you weren't at Dwight White's tonight.
35:53You never saw a thing.
35:56And you never say a word.
36:03Ed?
36:04Sunrises and sets just like regular.
36:18We left your truck at the chapel trailhead.
36:21Three miles out.
36:26Better get a move, woman.
36:41So, tell me, how is it?
36:43Well, we've already made some changes.
36:46Mm-hmm.
36:48Who?
36:49Ma'am Chet doesn't work here any longer.
36:52Huh.
36:54Color me unsurprised.
36:57He's the kind of cowboy that, uh, well, he poisons the well.
37:01Ma'am Chet's just over his skis and, frankly, a stopgap until we found someone better like you.
37:07Please eat.
37:16How long you been married?
37:18Oh, married?
37:19Mm-hmm.
37:19Not very long.
37:20Just, uh, chasing Beth my whole life, that's all.
37:23Yeah?
37:24Mm-hmm.
37:24Cupid's arrow got you young, huh?
37:26I was 15 years old shoveling shit for her father when I met her.
37:30Well, bottom of the food chain, you wooed John Dutton's daughter?
37:34Well, every dog has his day.
37:37Well, good on you.
37:38Tell me about her.
37:43Well, um, beautiful, intelligent, fierce, tender, raw.
37:58A bit like you.
38:02Cheers to that.
38:11How's $8,000 a month, plus a truck and a house.
38:16I don't need the truck or the house, ma'am.
38:22$9,000.
38:25I got $11,000.
38:30Sold.
38:32You want me to go get my checkbook right now?
38:35No, go ahead and eat first.
38:54I just can't wait a minute.
38:59You know, you start calling me for rides, you're going to have to start tipping.
39:06What's wrong?
39:09Come here.
39:10Come here.
39:12It's okay, I got you.
39:17It's okay.
39:18Come here.
39:20It's okay.
39:47You'll keep looking.
39:51Harder.
39:51I could put the whole station on it.
39:53It wouldn't make a damn difference.
39:55Why is that?
39:56Well, the amount of time that's passed, there's two possibilities.
40:00First is she's dead.
40:03And the second, you're going to like a whole lot less.
40:09Don't get the fuck out of my chair.
40:14Don't forget who paid for it.
40:22Ma'am?
40:24Uh-huh.
40:25You're a visitor.
40:30Your husband just left.
40:32I changed my mind about that drink.
40:37Oh. Oban 18.
40:41Well, how'd you know?
40:42We have a mutual friend.
40:57How do you do it?
40:59What's that?
41:01Carry this place.
41:04The sides.
41:08The legacy.
41:12You know, I watched my father.
41:14He spent his life defending his ranch against the enemies,
41:18in and outside of the fence line.
41:21It will have plenty of help.
41:23But the burden of it.
41:26That's all yours, isn't it?
41:29But you don't carry it, the weight of it, like him.
41:35You seem unflappable.
41:41Effortless.
41:47Men have the luxury of being unapologetically themselves.
41:51For women, it's a bit more complicated.
41:55Hmm?
41:56It doesn't have to be.
41:59How about you and I speak truthfully?
42:05All right.
42:14We destroyed our herd.
42:19Foot and mouth.
42:27That's quite a secret, to divulge to a stranger.
42:30I'll take the risk.
42:32FMD could cause serious trouble with the authorities if they found out.
42:38You know, there's two things that I don't do well, Beulah.
42:44One of them is fear.
42:47Uh-huh.
42:47And the other?
42:50Lose money.
42:54My father, he, uh, he had no interest in monetizing his ranch.
43:00His dream was to preserve, to uphold a promise, and keep the place whole.
43:07Which we did, but it killed him.
43:09I know your land has covered it.
43:12I know people have tried to steal it since the fucking Texas Revolution.
43:18And for good reason.
43:22But your family's blood is in that dirt.
43:25So I get why you want to protect it.
43:28I understand the lengths you will go to to achieve that.
43:33In 07, you and your son, you must have been so fucking desperate.
43:37You turned this place into a game lodge for trophy hunters.
43:42You welcomed in any son of a bitch with a blank check and an empty space on his wall.
43:50In 2010, South Texas suffered the worst drought in a century.
43:54Turned this place to fucking dust.
43:57You almost lost everything, but you didn't.
44:03It was impressive.
44:05But since then, Beulah, you have been over-leveraged and under-capitalized.
44:13This place is held together with tape and bailing wire.
44:17You are easy prey, Beulah.
44:20And you know it.
44:22But it's only a matter of time before solar or wind come for you.
44:27It takes real fucking backbone to hold your ground.
44:31Well, I trust hiring your husband was a step in the right direction.
44:35Best decision you've ever made for this place.
44:39But it's your next one that I'm here for.
44:42And what's that?
44:44Evolve or die.
44:46Beth, this ranch is 190 years old.
44:50That's a legacy that's endured.
44:52Yeah, a legacy is a beautiful thing, but only if it fucking survives.
44:55What are you selling?
44:57Freedom.
44:57How?
44:59Me.
45:04You hire me.
45:08In three years, I could rebuild this 10-petal brand into a household name.
45:16A line of premium cuts.
45:19It will be bespoke, recession-proof.
45:22We only target high-end buyers.
45:25That way we mitigate the volatility of beef prices.
45:29When the market dips, your stakes will stay steady in Vegas, New York, LA.
45:37But you're gonna need a new herd.
45:38Your fucking Mexican crossbreed.
45:40They won't cut it.
45:45I can see your story, Bula.
45:47I can fucking sell it.
45:50Okay.
45:51Walk in overseas strategy now.
45:53Mm-hmm.
45:54How's that working out for you?
45:57I'm offering you an exit.
46:01So when you are ready to hang it up, you can.
46:06And I promise you, you will have something substantial to leave your granddaughter.
46:12So Everett told you more than my favorite brand of scotch?
46:15No, he didn't need to.
46:18I understand you.
46:22You don't know me yet.
46:26But nobody will fight harder for you.
46:30When I want something, I usually get it.
46:36Rip is foreman.
46:39I take your stakes to market.
46:41We manage everything for you.
46:44What's that gonna cost me?
46:46Well, nothing right now.
46:49But I will want 20% of the profits.
46:52And in five years, Rip and I are out.
46:56Why wouldn't I slap Dutton Ranch on the label?
46:59That's worth 20%.
47:02Because my name is not for sale.
47:06Dutton will never be part of this deal.
47:09Ever.
47:13But you get me.
47:16You get me.
47:17You get me.
47:18And my services.
47:21First of all.
47:22Yes.
47:44It's a matter of a lot.
47:49It's a matter of, no, no, no.
47:51You won't.
48:07Why was she here?
48:13Beth works for me now.
48:16Are you out of your mind?
48:18We're diversifying.
48:20Premium certified Angus, ranch to table.
48:24We don't invite strangers into this business.
48:27You're not a cattleman, Keno.
48:30Rip Wheeler is.
48:33And Beth, she's a fucking Dutton.
48:37She's like a cockroach after an atomic bomb.
48:41A fighter. A survivor.
48:46Yellowstone was under constant assault. She held the front line for years.
48:50You are making a very dangerous assumption about what they're willing to or not willing to do.
48:56Rip and Beth have secrets.
48:58And I've learned people with secrets can be useful.
49:02Corruptible even.
49:03No, no more.
49:04No, no more.
49:30Police!
49:32Police!
49:32Police are out!
49:33Shit.
49:41Open that fucking door, Chet David!
49:49You scared the shit out of me, brother.
49:51I'm back in the saddle.
49:54Ma'am.
49:58You only bought me in.
50:00Yeah, come in.
50:01Well, this is delightful.
50:04Well, this is delightful.
50:35Whatcha up to, honey?
50:41A plan.
50:43What?
50:44If we can't afford the life that we want right now, we'll make it work together.
50:55If you give me a week, I'll know everything there is to know about Beulah Jackson.
51:01Well, let me tell you about Beulah Jackson.
51:05About three weeks ago, I found a dead body on our property.
51:11It flooded over from the tent pedal.
51:15I took care of it.
51:18But we need to be careful with this family.
51:23Why didn't you tell me?
51:29Peace, I guess.
51:32Well, peace will have to wait.
51:40Just in peace.
51:41Look at all.
51:47The shortest one, the two of us.
51:48The whole thing.
51:51Never night.
51:58The third one.
51:59The fourth one.
52:00The fourth one.
52:01The fourth one.
52:02The fourth one.
52:03The fourth one.
52:04The fourth one.
52:04The fourth one.
52:07The second two.
52:08The fourth one.
