- Drive!
(glass shattering)
- Jimmy, close your eyes!
(pepper spray hissing)
- Ah, ah, what the...
(guitar country music)
- You're so dumb, it's almost attractive.
- Wait, really?
- Understood attractive though, didn't ya?
- How do you feel about a girl in the bunkhouse?
'Cause it's different and so I was like,
oh, there's gonna be a girl and I was like,
oh, that's gonna be, is it?
How do I feel about that?
- I think it's great, I think there's like a degree of--
(laughing)
There's a degree of accountability
that brings, you know?
I think the Bunkhouse will be a little tidier.
I think that sort of outside presence,
makes everybody kind of button up a little.
- [Colby] Yeah.
- Maybe restore some boundaries that may have eroded.
- And I think that there's an awesome opportunity,
I think especially with this show to kind
of have such a dynamic in difference
as far as what you're kind of used to seeing
but it doesn't mean that a female can't come into
that and effortlessly kind of blend in.
And they're riding horses better than I am.
(laughing)
No one is fighting and it really,
I think it was great.
It was just a breath of fresh air, I think.
- How do you feel about romance in the workplace?
(laughing)
- Any questions?
You push 'em across the river
and we can follow the creek all the way up to--
- Then we'd have to swim a hundred cows across the river.
- Cow's can swim. - Yeah, I can't.
I dunno how to swim, man.
- Do you know how to shut the fuck up?
- I think what's great about Rip's leadership
is that he doesn't leave any room for questioning.
He doesn't leave any room, for sort of independent thought.
- I ain't asking your fucking permission Jimmy,
I'm telling you, now let's go.
- You're not necessarily expected to think
and that's, like, really liberating.
I think it's really liberating to be told,
where to go and what to do
and you can be just be a cog in the machine.
And I think Kayce expects a little bit more
independent thought that Jimmy is not ready to give.
Argh.
Jimmy doesn't know enough about this stuff
to have an opinion about where he should go and why,
so it's nice for Rip to sort of remove those variables.
- Jimmy, get on the quad.
- I think the opposite for Ryan.
I think when you have that structure,
it doesn't let the individual be anything
more than what they are, and that's why the Ranch, maybe,
has a high turnover rate because people come in,
they can't move around, do anything
and then they wanna leave.
And someone like Ryan needs to excel and achieve,
think more and that's why under Kayce,
he's more likely to advance to contribute in new ways
and become an asset that he thinks he can be to the ranch,
because that's allowed.
- I think Colby probably falls somewhere in the middle.
I think that in his mind he would like to think
that he has opinions that he would like to share.
But it's like, I mean, hell do I know, you know?
Like you guys have been doing it, it's worked.
When Kayce comes in I think that it kind
of brings this whole, like,
do you know what you're talking about?
Or do you not know what you're talking about?
Because I don't want to feel like you
are asking me how we should attack the battle
when you're leading the charge.
- Just tryin' to do it different.
- Different never works.
- And Rip is just so matter of fact.
- Get your asses out in that field
and start movin' 'em cows up the canyon,
like he told ya, go on.
- You know, I don't even have an opportunity yourself
to think, like even, the bull just come into the bar thing.
(guitar chord)
It's like clearly doesn't make any sense
but because there isn't, it's just like,
open the gate, and you're like, okay.
They both can see where their ideologies conflict
with problem solving.
But I think I'm more of a Rip person,
'cause I'm just, I don't wanna think.
- It's just like being an actor, right?
Like sometimes it's really nice for someone to say,
"Hey, don't think about it, sit down,
you're gonna sit right there,
and that's what's gonna happen."
'Cause sometimes they're like,
"Where do you wanna sit?"
- Yeah, that's what I wanna do in my everyday life,
I just want somebody to call me on the phone
and tell me exactly what to do.
Like, cause sometimes I just end up sitting,
there doing nothing and I just need a micromanager.
- Yeah, exactly it's like somebody tell me if--
- So how can I hire Rip, is there a Rip hotline?
(phone dialing)
- Send Rip.
- You tell me what you need and I'll take care of it.
(alarm)
- I think I get that a little bit hangin' around
with Cole Hauser too.
Like the beginning of the day I'm like,
"Um, excuse me, could I please bother you for, uh, coffee?
Just whatever the easiest way to make it is."
(laughing)
And then you spend a day around Cole
and by the end of the day you're like,
"Hey, coffee!
Didn't I say coffee, God damn!"
(laughing)
Like, by the end of the day around Cole Hauser,
Cole Hauser just like, sticks his arm out
and everybody's like, "What does he want?
What is he asking for?"
(laughing)
- You feel more unfiltered
because he's so confident. - Yeah, and that's Cole too,
and he steps into Rip so fully.
- So effortlessly. - And he just lives that life.
- You can see that, you know what I mean?
Like it's infectious and I think that we all deep down,
want to be able to be a Rip type.
And be able to be so assertive but it's so, like, respected.
- And it's also the difference between Rip
and John Dutton, right? - Right.
- 'Cause Rip will fuckin' yell at you
'til he gets what he wants.
- I'll fuck you all God damn day!
- John Dutton will just say,
"Okay". - Yeah.
- And he'll walk away and somebody else will come in.
- And then you don't exist anymore.
Yeah, you're one the train.
- One of the things people don't know about Cole so much,
seeing his character, it's so consistent
and steady throughout the show,
there's a little break with Beth,
where he allows himself to smile.
You can see what's underneath.
That is Cole most of the time,
just smilin', easy breezy, he's like a teddy bear
which people don't get to see 'cause in a heartbeat,
(guitar chord)
you think he's gonna kill you.
- That's it right there, that's that look right there!
- He just goes and your like,
"Oh shit, what have I done?"
- Oh my God! - Kid, come here.
- Get you're ass up here.
Get on the horse, Jimmy!
Hey Jimmy, go 'head and put that down.
- One time, in between scenes we're in between scenes,
like, they're settin' up lights, Cole goes,
"(whistling) Hey, Jeff, come here, get here!"
I go over there and he like grabs me by the back
of the neck and he pulls me in and I'm like,
"Oh fuck, what is it, what did I do?
Is he, what's gonna happen?"
He goes, "Did you see where they got the coffee?
Where's the coffee at?"
(laughing)
"Cole, it's right over there bro."
Like, the coffee tent is, like, the size of a--
- Yeah, it's like the bat size.
- Yeah this guy...
- He gets so immersed-- - And he's got ya by the neck.
- You listen, you tend to listen.
It's, you know, and he gives you advice, you tend
to be very present in the advice that is given.
- Yes Cole, let me go grab that tent for you!
I'm just gonna bring the whole tent right here.
- You said you wanted all the chairs in there, right?
(laughing)
Yeah, definitely, yeah I can grab that for you.
Hanging out with him outside of it,
it's like he's just, you know,
he has such a great time watching sports
and stuff like that and just kinda shootin' it with him.
It's just crazy to see him then step onto set
and just like,
(guitar chord)
transform into something completely different.
- Put a little dirt in his beard
and he uh-- - That's it, yeah,
dye it down a little bit
and it's just a whole different world which is insane,
I mean it's great acting.
(guitar twanging)
