- Something is,
I can't put my finger on it.
It feels like something's a little bit different.
- Mmm. - Is that just me?
Is that in my head?
- No, I totally, I get what you're saying. I mean,
it feels like there is a piece that's, like, missing?
But I just...
- Missing or different? What do you think?
(quietly adjusting in seats)
Exactly.
- That's interesting. So,
man, that's really riveting.
- Oh, hey guys.
- Howdy there, Cowboy
- I was just coming to grab my horseshoe.
They said we weren't doing this this year.
- We could have mailed it to you.
- What's this whole crew doing here?
(laughing) (rock music playing)
(crowd cheering)
- Season five, we're back.
I think the ratings came in.
There was something like, 17 billion views?
- 17 billion, yeah. - Apparently our,
outer planetary species are also tuning in.
- So now, John is governor.
What does this mean for the people that are against us?
The people that are for us?
The people that are on the fence?
- What are you gonna do first?
- His whole focus, for four seasons,
has been his land, his ranch,
that's been his, you know, purview, his little kingdom.
And then in order to protect his ranch, suddenly
he has to take responsibility for the whole state.
- Question we all have to answer,
the one that I will look to every day is,
what will Montana look like in a hundred years?
- Is he gonna govern the state
or is he just using that as a way to protect his place?
- I fight for what's right.
I don't really care who supports it.
- Is he gonna be corrupt?
And now that you have statewide power,
like you have, that's next level.
- Right. - How far would he go?
- There's no good and evil. - Right.
- What John needs is very different
than what other people need.
And this is like one of the really interesting
sort of questions in the show - Yes!
- from the beginning is there's these
mutually exclusive conflicts
where what people who live in Bozeman need
is different than what ranchers who live over,
you know what I mean?
- Native people's lands, right?
- Yeah, exactly, Rainwater? - And it's that same...
- Is this a good thing or a bad thing?
It's a good thing for the land
but I don't see how it's good for us.
- I don't have any confidence that he's
going to necessarily be corrupt.
But I do think that his good intentions
sometimes lead to a path of corruption.
- I think, I don't think he's gonna be offensive.
I think he's gonna be defensive.
I think he's gonna use the power as a giant shield
and said "don't come here."
But if the, if you do, I think he'll unleash
the power of hell in his office.
- The message is this,
we are not your playground.
(beeps) (rock music playing)
- I'm about to work you like a rented mule, brother.
It's time for your pound of flesh.
- Last season,
we left off with Beth wielding her immense power by
manipulating Jamie into,
you know, doing something treacherous obviously
to his father.
And documenting it so that she now has him
wrapped around her finger, forever.
- So Jamie's kind of at the lowest point of his life
but at the same time,
the Duttons are stepping into the political arena,
which is Jamie's territory. - Right, yes, yeah.
- Would you allow me the honor of introducing you
to your constituents?
- Like Jamie's more comfortable in Helena, at the capital
than any of the other Duttons.
So at the same time that
Beth wields this terrible power over him,
he also has the most leverage he's had over the family.
- So she's just gotta suck it up, and eat it,
and bide her time.
- 'Cause they need him.
- John cannot allow anybody to know, especially Jamie
to know how much he actually is needed.
- After everything I've done for you?
After everything I've sacrificed?
- What have you done for me, Jamie?
- What do you think his ultimate goal is?
Every time he says,
"I am trying to keep this place together,"
I believe him.
- Mmm, I think it's hard.
Like, there's a part of me that believe,
would wanna believe that
he wouldn't wanna stop until he sees everything,
like, taken away from them.
- From now on,
what I do is for me.
- I think all the Duttons' fates
are really tightly wound up together.
I think if Jamie goes down,
you know Jamie's not gonna go down easy.
He's gonna be pulling John Dutton with him,
pulling Beth with him.
- 'Cause he's got the goods on everybody.
- He's got the goods on everybody!
- And so does everyone else. - Exactly!
All their fates are intertwined.
You can't just cut off - One.
- the sick branch or whatever. - Right.
- You know, like, all their fates are tied up together,
which I think makes it so exciting.
(beeps) (rock music playing)
- How dressy is this deal?
- Oh, I don't know,
it's a party for the fuckin' governor. So,
pretty dressy!
- This scene, I'll tell you 'cause you,
you know, were conspicuously absent.
We had the full bunkhouse,
we were playing dominoes, for a change.
We got a new game this season.
Which, also funny 'cause
nobody at the table
knows how to play dominoes. - No one has a clue.
- So they're like, just set the dominoes up, you know
like your mid game and everyone's like,
"how do you do that?" (laughing)
- You have dresses?
- I've got dresses.
- Those days are always fun, but they are,
like, it's so, it can be very complicated, right?
When you have 7, 8, 9 people.
- Jake's got dresses, too If you need to borrow one.
(laughing)
- The ad-libbing and,
everyone's trying to make jokes.
- The hell are you laughin' at?
- When there's so many exciting, sort of,
specific relationships now, within that group.
- You want to tell me what's so fuckin' funny?
- Jake's trying to pick out his dress for tonight.
- The whole thing was, we were going to this huge party.
- I wanted to ask you about this,
because the party's at the ranch.
- What we, personally, were feeling
was kind of the same as like,
what the characters were feeling.
'Cause it is very strange.
Like, after so many years,
it's usually the same people at the ranch
and then to, all of a sudden, like,
one day walk out and see, like, hundreds of people.
- Gosh damn, boys, look at this.
We oughta have a party like this every year.
- That was great. We come out as a crew,
and of course the first thing that we do is stop at the bar.
The very first, we're like, "this is, are those free?"
- Could you make another one of those?
- Two. - Three.
- Four.
- That's like craft services, it's just like real life.
- That's what I'm saying. - Walk outta my trailer,
and be, "is that Cheetos?"
- Everyone's like, "can I just take the bottle with me?"
We all go out into the arena in all,
all of our finery
and throw ropes at each other like idiots.
I spot this vision sitting on the fence, watching us
and, by golly, I'm gonna make her mine.
So I march over to her, and then I draw my loop around,
and I throw it over her.
- What an incredible love story, man.
- I told you I was romantic!
- That was pretty slick.
- Speaking of your lassoing thing,
I think we all have like a special
move to, like, court. Like a peacock that's...
- Like the bird that builds the nest and then...
- Absolutely.
- What is yours? - Yeah, yeah.
- I'm very curious.
- I think Colby is, he's,
indifference?
- You wanna back rub?
- I don't, thanks.
- You wanna give me one?
- No, I don't.
- Very strong choice. - I think that's a,
I think the more that indifferent he is,
the more that it seems to attract.
- I would say that Jimmy's cowboy move is,
I jerked off a horse.
(struggling grunts)
- So would you say that's your love language?
- Yeah, I jerked off a horse.
(struggling grunts)
- Evidently, it worked.
- She's my fiancée.
- Do you know what a Houlihan is?
- Yeah.
- Can you throw it?
- Absolutely not.
- No interest in a dance.
- None.
- This is how you snare yourself a lady
on the Yellowstone.
(cheering)
- One dance. - One dance.
- Denim.
(board falls) (whooping)
Oh, Rip! I'm so sorry, Rip!
