Yellowstone S5 Part 2 watch thread - one more sleep to go! Contains spoilers [Title edited by MNHQ at OP's request]

[Netaporter]

Starts Monday 11th November on Paramount+

Anyone want to join me in a watch thread as we head into the second part of S5? I’m like 7 year old me on Xmas eve waiting for my new Rip fix 😂

How will John Dutton be written out? Any theories?

I think Jamie will get sucked in to what Sarah set up, because she was on her phone to him, her DNA is on the glass she used, and the remains of the phone are in his kitchen bin.
The police will know she was on the phone to Jamie, and it will all lead from there.

I thought Kayce pulled an absolute blinder with the ME!

Where did you see a trailer?

The buffalo had Brucellosis, and if any of the cattle tested positive the whole herd would be destroyed, at very little compensation, so they moved the cattle to a better, milder climate (in Texas)

I’m flipping exhausted. The kids get flung a beige tea as soon as I am over the door on a Monday. They then get a do not disturb for 2 hours so I can watch Yellowstone and straight into Lioness. Brilliant viewing. Gripping!

That's right! Thanks @Feministwoman

I've found the trailer!

There was a trailer on YouTube

In the trailer it appears Jamie is being led off by the FBI. Good.

Glad you found it!

Are there really only 3 left? (Sob)

Ooh can we have a link to the trailer?

Sorry, wrong link

Thank you!

Now I 🤔 no it's the other way - he's going with the 'officials' to show them who to arrest.

Loved this episode, people starting to get their comeuppance.😈

Jamie really is a very unappealing character.

Oh, you could be right.

It was interesting to see Chief Rainwater coming to see Beth. If you’ve seen 1883, the chief told James Dutton that they’d have their land back in seven generations and Tate is the seventh generation. I hope they manage to get it back.

Ooh good spot!!

Yes, I wondered if that was what the blood brother oath was about!

I don't know anyone else who feels a bit sorry for Jamie. When I saw the back story of him and Beth (when he took her to the clinic as a teenager) I thought he was trying to help her. He didn't know what to do, as only a kid himself and he got it wrong.

But her fury at him was not warranted in my opinion. He is just a weak man who wanted his father's approval and is easily led by others.

Of course, he's moved it up a notch now.

Yeah I see Jamie as a weak man, a lost soul, the fact that he's adopted as well and was sent away to college not trained up as a rancher cements him as having never belonged. He is however up to his neck in the death of John and so deserves it from that angle

It’s a shame that Jamie was unaware he was adopted and found out as a shock. That obviously won’t have helped his feeling of ‘otherness’. But yes, a weak man - and easy to blame the girlfriend for this one, but of course Jamie has murdered at least two people himself.

It's been some amazing script writing this latter half of the season, I was gripped by this last episode. I think they'll head to a spin off for Rip and Beth - she'll set another ranch up away from Yellowstone, maybe Texas? And the remaining ranch will go back to Tate (Kayce will decline it) and the natives in some way shape or form.

Cole Hauser is in a legal dispute with Taylor Sheridan so maybe no to a Rip spinoff even though that's what people want.

It's over two rival brands of coffee that are similarly packaged!
