Rip Wheeler: You know why, uh, people don't come and talk to you? 'Cause they're scared they're gonna let you down. I know I am.
John Dutton: Well, if you're marrying Beth, you've already proved you're not scared of anything.

Featured review
The excuses for random bursts of violence are running thin
The story has been so weak this episode that the precredit sequence - normally something enticing and setting the mood - is given to a few seconds of a cowboy we don't know riding next to a bull. Exciting stuff. Don't worry, it will become super relevant to the nail-biting idea of looking at horses to buy. Bob the cowboy (some real rodeo I take it) has such bad acting skills the shot cuts before he's even finished talking.
Dutton says "expensive taste runs in the blood" to which Tate says (about Kayce) "That's what it'll take as he's broke", because all six year olds talk like Taylor Sheridan.
Dutton says "secrets are like a callous on the heart, tell enough of 'em and soon your heart won't feel a thing" despite secrets being something you don't tell. Sheridan's on fire this season, or at least his typewriter might be.
Monica hasn't whined enough recently so happily agrees to get kidnapped so a long-range sniper borrowed from Wind River can hopefully aim perfectly at a struggle and cover her face in brain. She's cool with that as long as she can have a nice shower and whine at her husband some more.
Beth turns into a vile monster again amidst some stock-shenanigans that make as much sense to me as watching Wall Street when I was 8. Rip meanwhile has turned from The Punisher into Winnie The Pooh with a cowboy hat.
Excuse for violence #2 this episode is Colby and Teeter (Tater? Potato? Who cares) getting trampled by Wade and his Smithers, while skinny-dipping, which cuts to the next scene with no progression because the writing and editing this season is being tackled by a pack of feral children on activities day.
But all sympathy goes to Dutton and his TERRIBLE, nail-biting nightmare of a dilemma of turning down half a billion dollars, something we can all relate to. I wish I could give him a hug (and some cough syrup).
