In episode 11, “Three Fifty-Three,” Both Beth and Kayce have unsettling premonitions about their father’s fate. In the present, Steven Rawlings is sworn in as governor and offers Clara a position as his chief of staff, which she declines upon learning of his and Jamie’s plan to seize control of the Yellowstone ranch.
Kayce, determined to uncover the truth about his father’s death, pressures the medical examiner to reexamine John’s body. The new autopsy reveals signs of forced restraint, confirming Kayce’s suspicions of foul play. He confronts Jamie, who denies any involvement in their father’s death, claiming he has nothing to gain from it.
Meanwhile, Beth and Kayce face the grim reality of potentially losing the ranch. They discuss selling parts of it to keep the rest intact. Rainwater and Mo visit to pay their respects and offer assistance, with Rainwater and Beth brainstorming ways to preserve as much of the land as possible.
Sarah Atwood, realizing the danger she’s in, tries to contact her associates but finds herself isolated. Jamie, frustrated with the failed murder plot, confronts Sarah, leading to a violent altercation. As Sarah leaves, she is ambushed and killed by a couple posing as lost travelers, leaving Jamie without his key ally.
The episode ends with the police reclassifying John’s death as a murder, prompting a homicide investigation. Governor Rawlings addresses the state assembly, reinstating Market Equities’ lease and invoking eminent domain on the Dutton property. Jamie is publicly called out to recuse himself from the investigation, adding to the family’s mounting troubles.
What is ‘Yellowstone’ about?
According to the official series synopsis, “Oscar and Emmy winner Kevin Costner is the marquee attraction of the ensemble cast in this drama series, starring as the patriarch of a powerful, complicated family of ranchers. A sixth-generation homesteader and devoted father, John Dutton controls the largest contiguous ranch in the United States. He operates in a corrupt world where politicians are compromised by influential oil and lumber corporations and land grabs make developers billions. Amid shifting alliances, unsolved murders, open wounds, and hard-earned respect, Dutton’s property is in constant conflict with those it borders — an expanding town, an Indian reservation, and America’s first national park.”
