Yellowstone Season 5 Part 1: If you’re a fan of Yellowstone and gearing up for Season 5, Part 2, you might need a quick refresher on what went down in Part 1. Let’s be real, the Dutton drama is thicker than a cowboy’s beard after a week on the ranch. So, here’s a simple recap to get you all caught up before diving into Part 2.
John Dutton: Governor Cowboy
First things, John Dutton is now the governor of Montana. Yep, you heard that right. It’s like giving a grizzly bear a suit and asking it to run the forest. John’s not exactly a politician, but when has that ever stopped him? He’s taking his own wild west approach to politics, which pretty much means he’s trying to stop anything and everything that might threaten his beloved Yellowstone Ranch.
Yellowstone Season 5 Part 1
Spoiler alert: John’s not making many friends in this role, especially when he cancels a fancy airport project that would have brought in loads of money but also more tourists. And if there’s one thing John hates more than losing his land, it’s well, pretty much everyone.
Jamie Dutton: Trouble Magnet
Ah, Jamie…the family black sheep who somehow always finds himself in the middle of all the chaos. In Part 1, Jamie continues his quest to gain some respect, but, of course, he manages to mess things up in the process.
He’s now working with Market Equities, trying to impeach John from his governor position. Because if there’s one thing Jamie excels at, it’s bad decisions. Seriously, this guy couldn’t find his way out of a cardboard box.
By the end of Part 1, he’s not only aligned himself with the bad guys but also begins plotting against his own father, John. Family dinners must be super awkward in the Dutton household.
Rip Wheeler: The Ultimate Cowboy
Rip is still being Rip—kicking butt, protecting the ranch, and making sure Beth doesn’t burn the world down. He’s now in charge of moving the cattle to the ranch’s winter grazing lands, which is not exactly a simple task.
But let’s be honest, Rip could probably fight off a whole pack of wolves while wearing a blindfold and still manage to look cool. Seriously, how does he do that
Kayce Dutton: Searching for Answers
Kayce, the one who always seems like he’s stuck in a Western movie, is off trying to figure out his life. In Part 1, he’s still dealing with visions from his spiritual journey back in Season 4, where he had to choose a path. He chose his family, but what does that mean exactly?
There’s tension between him and his wife, Monica, as they struggle with the tragic loss of their baby, which leaves a cloud of sadness over them throughout Part 1.
