The first 200 lines.
You must've been really drunk to do that.
Do what?
This.
Why in the hell would you do that?
It's kind of a long story.
I got time.
Oh, shit. No, I don't.
Get moving.
Laramie, let's...
Seriously?
Hey, hey.
Hey. Laramie. Wake up. We're late.
Let's go.
Gonna be a long day, Lloyd.
Didn't get much sleep.
If you're looking for a connection to this place,
you're not gonna find it.
This is just a rental.
It's not a connection to this place that I'm looking for.
Do I have any brothers? Cousins? Sisters?
What are you trying to decide?
Who my family is.
Well, that's already been decided.
You got a couple cousins in east Montana
and a half brother somewhere...
Your grandfather is holed up in a nursing home in Fargo.
Bastard's nearly a hundred and he is living proof
that only the good die young.
And there's me.
You know what I am.
And your mother...
I remember I'd been out
long-hauling goddamn cattle.
I came home,
and I found you screaming...
'cause you were fucking starving.
You had a hold of an old crack pipe
and you were sucking on the tip of it
like it was a nipple...
in between screams.
And I found her bent over the sink
by some fat piece of shit...
and I knew that you had only one chance
in life, and that was without her in it.
So, I did what I did...
I took her life and gave up mine.
For you...
Looking at you now, I would say that it was probably
the best choice I could've made.
John Dutton may have raised you,
but did he love you, son?
Does he love you now?
He loves a goddamn ranch.
That's all he's ever loved.
You standing in my yard tells me you already knew it.
I'm your family, son. I'm the only one you got.
Everything that I worked for.
Everything that I thought I was...
I'm going to lose.
I was raised to run that ranch.
I built it into what it is today.
Then run it.
It's not mine.
It's not for sale. Not that I could afford it.
Nobody can afford Yellowstone.
Yellowstone ain't a ranch.
It's an empire. Empires you take.
I don't know how to do that.
Oh, it's the simplest thing on earth.
You kill the King.
I'm not a killer.
You've never killed?
Yeah, you've killed.
Of course, you've killed.
You're a Randall.
And killing is our only gift.
Sorry.
Don't be sorry.
It takes time.
Guess I know what it feels like to be you now.
Yeah. In more ways than one.
You know, we moved to the ranch to be with you
and now you're never here.
This, uh... this livestock thing.
It's a full time job.
You like it, don't you?
I like having somebody to fight for.
Rather than some thing.
When you fight for a thing,
the thing don't care if you win or lose
because the thing ain't alive.
But when you fight for people, they care.
Yeah, that's what I like about it, too.
But I think a thing can care. I think the land cares.
I know you do, baby.
That's what I love about you.
The U.S. will ban visas
for officials linked to the allegations
if they do not cooperate with the U.N.
Even with the global slowdown that we're seeing,
it seems structural credit won't get hit
like it did last time in the recession.
What we're really concerned with is high yield and leverage loans...
Interest rates globally have been in secular decline for the past 25-plus years...
Businesses around the globe are looking for a way to get yields.
Now even with all that said, the markets...
Leave me a message and I'll call you back.
Just checking in with you
'cause you haven't checked in with me.
The Fed dropping interest rates for the second time...
You know, your office has a balcony.
From the balcony, I see the parking lot.
From the roof I see the reservation.
I like the view of the parking lot better.
You know, you can wish we weren't your people, but we are.
That's not what I wish.
What do you wish, Angela?
I wish I could go back in time
and tell our people to sell every weapon they have.
Every horse.
Then take that money and go to New York
and hire the biggest law firm in the city.
If I could do that, we wouldn't be standing here.
We'd be standing at the gates of Yellowstone
and still calling it home.
We'll stand there again.
Not with you we won't.
There's no such thing as morality.
There's own the land and there's lose the land.
That's all you'll be judged by.
Not how you do it.
Winners are never judged by "how".
They save that for the losers.
You had a long night.
Yeah.
Thank you, sweetie.
Who'd you kill?
Don't ask me that, Beth.
Who'd you kill?
What did I just say?
We don't get to do that anymore.
What's that?
Secrets.
We don't get those.
There's things I do,
and then there's things that got to get done.
You don't want to know them.
It's not a secret, Darling. It's a favor.
How many?
Enough.
How many?
It's a big ranch, Beth.
And our enemies don't fight fair, you know that.
How many?
I don't know. Honestly.
Don't pretend like you don't know how we fight.
Oh, I know how you fight...
I subscribe to Nietzsche's thoughts on right and wrong.
Hmm?
He was a German philosopher who died of syphilis
after he cornholed some prostitute,
so not exactly a life to model yours after,
but his thoughts on right and wrong, good and evil.
Which were: there's no such thing.
That, I believe.
I believe in loving with your whole soul
and destroying anything that wants to kill what you love.
That's it.
That's all there is.
I believe in the same thing.
I take it back.
You can keep this secret.
Now if you'll excuse me...
I gotta kill someone, too.
You ready for this?
They fucked with the wrong bull, daddy.
Yes, they did.
I'll see you there.
That thing you wanted back. I got it.
Want me to put it some place?
Naw, I don't want it.
Just didn't want him to have it...
He's not gonna come looking for it, is he?
No, sir.
That train only runs in one direction.
You find out who was holding his leash?
It's a guy by the name of Roarke.
I don't know who he is.
Roarke.
Want me to start asking around?
No. No need.
When people lose their dogs
they ask everyone if they've seen them.
He'll show up soon enough.
Yes, sir. Let me know if you need anything.
What?
Well, it's nice to see a plan work out for once.
I guess your plan did work out, Dad.
Well...
Not my plan. My...
