John, still adapting to being governor, sees his policy staff meeting in the Capitol building. When John asks why he was not invited, he is displeased with their responses and fires all of them on the spot. Jamie is forced to help Beth in jail. The woman that Beth attacked arrives to file a complaint, but Jamie convinces her to reconsider and leave the state. This allows Beth to go free, but Jamie spitefully has her charged with disorderly conduct. When Jamie picks her up, Beth sees his child seat and discovers Jamie has a son, which infuriates her. She swears that she will take the child away from him, and Jamie narrowly avoids running her over. Kayce and Monica bury their child on the ranch's family cemetery, following her Native American traditions, and Kayce comforts her. John talks with Kayce, thanking him for naming the child after him, and then comforts Monica, sharing a personal story that seems to bond them. John commutes Summer's sentence after a year of time-served and becomes her supervisor so she can help him fight the upcoming wolf court case. Jamie meets Sarah Atwood at a bar and ends up having sex with her in the bathroom of her hotel, while Beth listens from a distance. She finds Sarah's license and discovers it's fake, but before she can investigate further, has a tense encounter with Summer, now her father's guest. | ||||||||||||

John is assessing his new position as Governor and what he sees as his primary responsibilities to saving the Yellowstone ranch. He changes tactics politically and clears his appointments for two weeks, so he can camp with his many cowboy friends to see to the needs of the ranch. John tasks his office to begin planning an extravagant public event at his home to increase his political base, whom he plans to use to save his ranch from hostile market-based takeovers. Beth is livid with John for signing her out for custodial supervision at their ranch house. When Summer, a vegan, eventually sits down at the supper table with the Duttons, she criticizes the table and the chef for the family's "carnivorous" dinner. Beth immediately invites Summer to step outside and the two get into a fight. Rip gets the two to batter each other punch-for-punch until Beth lands a blow that nearly knocks Summer out, forcing her to concede and fostering a little respect. The next day, the Duttons and ranch members begin silent and determined preparations for their three-day bivouac, which creates a thoughtful atmosphere for Summer to reflect. She watches the cowboys depart for the distant parts of the vast Yellowstone ranch. | ||||||||||||

The cowboys, along with John, make it across the vast Yellowstone ranch and begin to round up the cattle. Beth reconnects with Rip who shows her his dream location at Yellowstone. He thinks it might make an impression on Beth as a place to finally build her own home, and she is deeply impressed. While John and the cowboys are away, a government military detachment of special services arrives at the reservation to begin setting up a perimeter for a VIP to arrive for a large public reception. Jamie reacts impulsively when he is seduced by Sarah, and starts having multiple sexual encounters with her. She eventually makes clear that she wants him to grandfather permission for Equities to build the new airport near Yellowstone; Jamie is convinced he can do so. Mo discovers that the President of the United States is unexpectedly arriving at the reservation for a visit of public support. During the herding, a fellow cowboy and friend of John's dies in his sleep, which John calls the perfect cowboy's death. John goes to comfort the widow of the elderly cowboy, which is captured by TV cameras. | ||||||||||||

In a flashback, Rip is jeered by a cowboy for Beth's affections, leading to a fight that leaves his rival severely injured. Despite going to John for help, the cowboy dies. Agreeing to hide the crime, John makes Rip promise to devote the rest of his life to the ranch, implying his Yellowstone branding. Jamie is confronted by Market Equities and Sarah, with official papers stating that the Dutton ranch and property is protected as a national park under state jurisdiction. Jamie is livid, since John and Beth kept him out of the loop. Sarah warns him that Equities will sue the state, potentially leading to bankruptcy. She convinces him that John needs to be removed from office, and promises him Equities' support in becoming the next governor. At the ranch, John and the cowboys discover that part of the land has been contaminated by bison, forcing them to use winter resources to feed the cattle. With little choice, John decides to lease some land in Texas to protect the livestock, although doing so will put them in debt. Beth discovers another form of income, as opposed to ranching, and struggles to get her father to agree. Jamie prepares a speech to the state assembly calling for John's impeachment. | ||||||||||||

Rip and the other cowboys make their way to Texas, leaving Kayce to run the ranch. As John lends support to Rainwater and the Broken Rock Reservation in defiance of a pipeline, he learns that Jamie has publicly called for his impeachment. Beth finds out and threatens Jamie with revealing how he dumped the body of his biological father, whom she forced Jamie to execute. Jamie informs Beth about the uselessness of her evidence, revealing the long tradition of the Duttons dumping their enemies in a no-man's land called the "Train Station," leaving Beth shocked and speechless. Jamie points out how their father's reckless, stubborn actions have done the ranch more harm than good and that the only way for it to thrive is to remove him from power. Realizing she had underestimated Jamie, Beth suggests to John that her brother might need to be taken to the train station himself. John is visibly uncomfortable about the idea and does not respond. Unbeknownst to Beth, Jamie has anticipated his sister's murderous intentions, and plans to counter by asking Sarah about hiring "professionals." |
Ratings
[edit]The two-hour series premiere of Yellowstone averaged 2.8 million viewers in live + same day and became the most-watched original scripted series telecast ever on Paramount Network (or its predecessor Spike). The premiere audience grows to nearly 4 million when the two encore airings of the premiere are factored in. The premiere audience more than doubled that of Paramount Network's first scripted drama series, Waco and more than tripled the debut viewership of Paramount Network's new comedy series, American Woman.[53] It was later reported that the premiere's Live+3 Nielsen ratings revealed that 4.8 million viewers ultimately watched the premiere after delayed viewing was factored in.[54] By the series' third episode, it was reported that the show had become the second-most-watched television series on ad-supported cable to air in 2018, only behind AMC's The Walking Dead.[55]
Yellowstone's fourth season premiere broke records. The two-hour premiere was watched by 8.38 million viewers in live + same day, which made it cable's most watched episode since 2018. The premiere also hit a new series high in the key adults 18-49 demo, drawing a 3.26 rating in adults 18-49 (L+SD), which was up 82% from the Season 3 premiere. Chris McCarthy, president and CEO of MTV Entertainment Studios, commented "Taylor has created a riveting world that our remarkable cast led by Kevin Costner brings to life in a way audiences can't get enough of. The Yellowstone season four premiere numbers are just another reason why we are thrilled to deepen our relationship with Taylor and capitalize on this tremendous momentum by building out the Yellowstone franchise together."[56]
