Yellowstone

Previously on "Yellowstone"...

Who's this?

That's the man hired to kill us.

Hired by who?

You need to ask your brother for his prison records.

If he resists in any way, then we have our answer.

Oh, my God.

Schwartz & Meyer runs half the land

on the north side of the Yellowstone.

You're a corporate raider.

Come and raid for Market Equities.

You have controlling interest of Schwartz & Meyer now.

You want a piece of Schwartz & Meyer.

I want your piece.

You give me that, I'm yours.

Get up and dance, old man.

Stop it!

What's the rule about fighting, Lloyd?

God damn you for making me do this.

He's never gonna get better staying here.

I was thinking we can go up and stay at your father's place

for a while until we can find another place close to here.

What do all my children have to do to find happiness?

Could've done without the anatomy lesson, but that's okay.

I'll work that shit out in therapy.

Well, Beth...

That's a risk you take when you sneak into a man's bedroom

in the middle of the night.

Don't I know it.

And a drink. Oof!

This news must be real good or real bad.

In my 37 years,

I've only spent the night here alone once.

You know, houses, they don't make noises

when they're full of people but when they're empty...

Man, they moan and they creak and they shift in place.

I thought the house was going to tear itself out

from the foundation and walk away.

So, I figured that I would just spend the night

and make sure it doesn't walk away with you.

I don't uh...

I don't mind an empty house. Mm.

Liar.

I'll, uh...

I'll get your room ready.

Oh, my room's ready enough, Dad.

You ready to turn in?

You kidding?

I'm five away from sleep.

Look, I can go downstairs.

No, no, honey. No, you're...

You're fine right there.

What are you reading?

"The Solace of Open Spaces."

"To be tough is to be fragile.

To be tender is to be truly fierce."

"True solace is finding none.

Which is to say, it's everywhere."

Yeah. Not sure I believe that.

It's true, Beth. Can't be found.

Lord knows I've looked.

No... Solace... must be discovered.

Discovered how?

I need an example, 'cause, um...

Well, I've looked everywhere, too.

I spent all evening on the porch staring at mountains,

listening to birds...

Heart still empty.

I take a shower to wash it away like dirt

but you can't wash lonely off.

So, I surrender to it.

Best I can do is sleep through the lonely,

if I can sleep at all.

Then I walk in here and I discover you.

Now my heart's full.

I sure hope you outlive me, Beth.

I'm not sure I could tolerate the world without you in it.

Worry not, Daddy.

Only the good die young.

If a meteor strikes earth tonight,

it is me and the cockroaches

running this motherfucker tomorrow.

Well, I guess tomorrow's my lucky day, then.

Good night, baby girl.

Good night, Daddy.

Thank you.

He needed this.

We both do.

Find us a house to rent.

We're done living with fathers for a little while.

I feel better already.

In my soul.

That's all that matters.

Is he okay?

Well...

He's a boy who was forced to do what men do.

These days, most men won't even do it.

because society has taught them that they are sheep.

And when wolves come you must not fight them.

You must call a shepherd.

So, he feels guilt for doing something

he should be praised for.

A few more sweats, then Mo will take him up on the hill.

Then when he comes down,

he won't think of himself as a killer.

He'll think of himself as a warrior.

Like you.

I'm hardly a warrior.

How much guilt do you feel?

My only regret is that I didn't kill him myself.

That's a warrior's regret.

Give that horse to Mia today, Lloyd.

Pull that new bay from the mare corral.

She needs ridin'.

This is my mount. I ain't riding a fucking mare.

Then you'll walk.

And take that boy and show him how to saddle a horse.

C'mon, kid.

Memorize what I say:

Horn, pommel, skirt, seat, rigging...

Repeat it.

Horn, pommel,

skirt, seat, rigging.

Cinch, latigo,

stirrup...

D rings.

Back billet.

Cinch, latigo, stirrup,

D rings, back billet.

Good.

Let's toss it on her.

Okay, go.

Okay, reach under her and grab that cinch.

Cinch.

Okay, latigo goes through your D-ring.

Back up and through.

Back through that D-ring again.

Pull it up snug.

Good, now the same thing on the back cinch.

All right.

Now this is your latigo keeper.

It's got the name of the saddlemaker right on it.

Can you read?

Yeah.

Okay. I ride a Sterling.

Mister Dutton, he rides a Dale Harwood or a Don Rich.

And Rip, he rides an Andy Maschke.

What do the others ride?

Don't matter. They saddle their own horses.

Lloyd, when you're done with that,

start moving them panels into the arena.

Yes, sir?

Can you get the state prison warden

on the line for me, please?

Of course.

Sir, Warden Jeffries is on line one.

How are you, sir?

Does he have a public defender or counsel?

Thank you.

Attorney General Dutton for Richard Scott.

Mr. Scott, I need to interview your client Terrell Riggins

in regards to his involvement

in the John Dutton attempted murder.

That won't be necessary.

Because I'm offering him immunity.

Shit!

What the fuck is that?

That's a centipede.

It get you?

Uh, yeah. It got me.

Most people in Texas don't sleep on the ground.

I brought you some breakfast.

You got a fork?

Make a sandwich out of it.

Who are you?

I'm Jimmy. I'm the new cowboy.

You're not a cowboy.

What makes you say that?

I can see it in your eyes.

You're somebody somebody told to come here

so we can make a cowboy out of you.

Something like that.

It's the most glorious work you can do

that nobody ever sees.

Takes every inch of you.

You're gonna risk your life and your horse's life.

And nobody's knows if you won or if you lost.

It's art...

without an audience 'til the day you die.

And then after you're dead,

you don't have an audience either.

You just... You're just...you're just gone.

Now, you gotta want this life.

You've got to want it all the way to your bones.

And if you don't...

it can be absolute hell on earth.

I don't know what I want.

There's a few of us old goats hanging around.

We'll make sure you don't starve.

Oh, and quit sleeping on the ground.
