Unexpected Outcomes on Yellowstone: A Cowboy's Death and a Shady Conversation

Yellowstone's recent episode was a rollercoaster. Sad news first: a beloved cowboy, Colby, met his end after trying to save a boy trapped with a moody horse. The horse kicked him, and that was that. It all started with a sweet phone call to his girlfriend, Teeter. He said he loved her. Not long after, tragedy struck. Meanwhile, Rip gave Lloyd a task. He had to get the cattle ready for a sale. Rip didn't want Uncle Sam to take their land as payment. Travis was called in to sell the show horses. Rip was too heartsick to tell Jimmy, a young horse trainer, that John was gone. Travis did the tough talk instead. At Jamie's place, Detective Dillard dropped a bombshell. Sarah wasn't killed in a carjacking; she was targeted. Jamie got upset and made things worse by acting shady. Detective Dillard warned Kayce about Jamie's dodgy behavior. Kayce had an idea. He told Beth to trust him. He also called Mo, asking for a favor. Beth comforted Carter, the boy who Colby saved. She said he wasn't alone. She even lit up a fire for Rip, showing Beth's softer side. Kayce made a big move. He got into a car with Grant and threatened Grant's daughter at gunpoint. He offered a deal: Grant leaves Kayce's family alone, and Kayce leaves Grant's alone. After counting coup on Grant, Kayce left.
