Rip Wheeler (played by Cole Hauser) has had a soft spot for Beth Dutton (Kelly Reilly) since the 1990s when he started living on the Yellowstone ranch. There had always been a mutual attraction and in series two, she finally let him in and they have been going from strength to strength ever since. However, how Rip came to be on the ranch is a very disturbing story.

WARNING: This article contains spoilers from Yellowstone.

What happened to Rip’s family in Yellowstone? 

Rip grew up near Miles City in Montana on a pig farm, where he was being raised by his single mum, alongside his brother.

His parents had divorced and Rip hardly saw his dad but everything changed one night in 1997.

Rip’s dad, a very violent man who had abused his wife, went to the farm with the mission of killing both of his sons and their mum.

Unfortunately for Rip, his dad mostly succeeded with his killings, murdering both his brother and his mum.

While the events of Rip’s childhood were traumatising, he wouldn’t have met Beth if none of it happened.

If he wasn’t taken in by John then there would have been no love story between Rip and Beth.

In season three, fans were thrilled to see Rip was ready to propose, even going to great lengths of digging up his mum’s grave to retrieve her engagement ring.

But before he was able to ask for Beth’s hand in marriage, the Duttons had been targeted.

Unless, of course, he took Garrett’s advice to ‘kill the king’ and take out John Dutton in the season finale, giving him the power to do with the vast Yellowstone ranch whatever he pleases.

The same viewer also pointed out Will Patton’s appearance continues his trend of appearing as a rival for fellow Hollywood legend, Kevin Costner.

They wrapped up their theory and said: “Will Patton rules, and it’s nice to see him complete the ‘I Hate Kevin Costner’ Trinity, after No Way Out and the not-nearly-as-bad-as-everyone-says The Postman. He better be a series regular.”

Viewers can now only hope Taylor Sheridan embraces Will Patton’s potential and fully utilises the actor’s strengths in Yellowstone’s upcoming fourth season.

Yellowstone will return with season 4 in 2021 on Paramount.

It would certainly be a massive coincidence if three distinct plans to take down the Duttons all kicked off at once, though it’s not outside the realm of possibility considering how many enemies the ranch has made over the years.

Reddit user dogsanddundermifflin posted: “Okay … so I know this seems far fetched, but it is Yellowstone, and as much as I love this show, that might make this theory even more plausible.

“What if all three attacks (on John, Beth and Kaycee) are all at the hands/orders of different people? And have essentially nothing to do with each other.”

Most fans have the likes of Roarke Morris (Josh Holloway) and Thomas Rainwater (Gil Birmingham) high on their list of suspects who could have orchestrated the attacks.

The third season of Yellowstone concluded earlier this year and featured an impressive shake-up of the show’s format. Ahead of its fourth season returning to Paramount and Peacock, Taylor Sheridan has opened up about the daunting task of juggling the Duttons’ multiple storylines.

Season three of Paramount Network’s Yellowstone featured plenty of surprises, which all came to a head in the explosive last minutes of the season finale.

In episode ten, The World Is Purple, John Dutton (played by Kevin Costner) and his family fell victim to a series of brutal coordinated attacks.

As filming of the fourth season continues in Montana, fans are preparing for a visceral revenge plot to kick off the upcoming instalment.

Meanwhile, co-creator and showrunner Taylor Sheridan has touched on the major changes he made to the series’ format this year.

Drawing from his work writing and directing popular neo-Westerns Hell or High Water and Wind River, Sheridan tackled a sprawling family history in Yellowstone’s 2020 comeback.

Millions of fans tuned in each week to discover more about the wealthy ranch owners, including a devastating reveal about Jamie Dutton’s (Wes Bentley) past. 

Not only was the successful attorney revealed to be adopted in the latest season, but flashbacks also revealed his fraught history with his sister, Beth (Kelly Reilly).

Additionally, the series set the tone with a heart-wrenching scene in which John Dutton promised to secure his family’s legacy to his dying father (Dabney Coleman).

Upping the series’ use of flashbacks this year certainly produced a number of challenges, including the casting of newcomers Kylie Anne Rogers and Dalton Baker to play younger versions of Beth and Jamie.

However, Sheridan revealed flashbacks were the only way forward this season, as other storytelling methods may have dampened the gut-punch of this year’s huge reveals.

He continued: “Another way to do it is just have a monologue explaining the same thing, but it doesn’t have the impact of witnessing it. 

“It’s always more powerful to see it and feel the history of that family, and as I continue to employ it and will continue to do so, I think that it’s a great way for an audience to truly understand how this family came to be.”

Thankfully, the gamble paid off, and Yellowstone proved more popular than ever when season three broadcast on Paramount this year.

Sheridan also cited The Godfather Part II as an influence, adding: “It’s not unlike watching Don Corleone come over to New York at the turn of the century, interspersed with watching Al Pacino’s Michael Corleone fully embrace the power of his family.”

As the series so far is set to be added to NBC’s new streaming platform Peacock, the complex family saga could see an even bigger surge in viewership ahead of the season four premiere in 2021.

Yellowstone will return with season 4 in 2021 on Paramount and Peacock.

As the family recovers from their wounds, Rip Wheeler and the rest of his posse will have to do everything they can to track down the unknown assailants and deliver some well-earned payback.

With filming currently going ahead in Montana, a new post on social media has given fans their first look at what could be a crucial moment in season four.

Rip star Cole Hauser took to his personal Instagram page last week with a behind-the-scenes snap of the bunkhouse crew lined up on horseback.

Hauser is presumably taking the shot, which includes Ian Bohen (Ryan), Denim Richards (Colby), Forrie J. Smith (Lloyd), Jennifer Landon (Teeter), Ethan Lee (Ethan) and Jake Ream (Jake).

Sheridan’s aim was to make the show as authentic as possible to ranch-wrokers and those who live a similar lifestyle to the Dutton family.

As a result, he knew that this would make it successful and appealing to the rest of the population.

“I’m writing it for cowboys because if I make it authentic and believable to them, everyone else will believe the premise as well,” he said.

“Market it the same way, go to horse shows, go to rodeos, go to state fairs and put up banners there.”

The hit Paramount series is expecting another season next year, but the finale of Yellowstone’s third instalment has left several questions unanswered. Several shocked viewers are still hung up on Rip Wheeler’s puzzling decision to dig up his mother’s grave when he was hard-up for cash. 

Following an unpredictable relationship with Beth Dutton (played by Kelly Reilly), ranch hand Rip Wheeler (Cole Hauser) finally realised she was the love of his life in the latest season of Yellowstone. 

During the season finale, Rip decided to propose to the intelligent yet troubled daughter of John Dutton (Kevin Costner), but realised he didn’t have enough savings to afford an engagement ring. 

In a strange turn of events, Rip visited his mother’s grave to dig up her own wedding ring.

Later on, Beth subverted expectations when she was the one to propose to Rip, before the episode took a dark turn and the Duttons were targeted by unseen hitmen.

Season four is hoped to arrive in 2021, and fans are eager to see the on-again off-again romance finally fulfilled; that is, if Beth actually survived the family’s latest ordeal. 

Meanwhile, some viewers are still stumped as to why Rip had no money of his own to pay for a new engagement ring. 

After calculating a rough overview of his finances, one perceptive fan argued he should definitely have enough savings to stretch to an engagement ring.

They took to Reddit to give an extensive run-down of the ranch hand’s salary and savings.

“And he’s certainly earning more than that now as a manager. With no other figures to go by, I’ll stick to $ 400 per week.”

Most viewers have put Rip as being in his mid-30s, so he should have acquired plenty of savings without additional accommodation costs that would have normally drained his salary. 

Although Rip has some expenses, including his affinity for cold cans of beer, he doesn’t share the Duttons’ business mentality and tends to stay out of their investments. 

By analysing Rip’s estimated cash flow, this fan asserted the ranch foreman could have over $ 250,000 tucked away somewhere.

While engagement rings are certainly on the expensive side, they usually fall below six figures and should really be affordable for someone like Rip.

However, another fan argued his tastes could be deceptively expensive despite his unchanging wardrobe.

Pointing out a key line, they said: “Oh s**t! Those are Kerry Kelly spurs!” Pretty sure he’s got mega expensive s**t laying around everywhere. 

“Rip might not look like it but he has expensive taste. As far as the remainder of it, when the mattress gets full it goes in barrels and gets buried out back.”

As neighbouring landowners and business rivals muscle in on Dutton Ranch more each season, it’s definitely possible Rip is safeguarding his savings for personal use in case he ever has to jump ship. 

Yellowstone is available to watch on Paramount.

However, no ploy to take over the USA’s biggest contiguous ranch has been quite so fatal as the latest attack on John’s family in the final moments of last week’s finale.

Many fans are convinced the Dutton’s new opponent Roarke is the most likely suspect, and will be revealed as John’s would-be killer when Yellowstone season four is eventually released.

Paramount have yet to renew the series for another instalment, but all signs are pointing towards the show continuing as each episode has pulled in millions of viewers who are all eager to see what’s next for John’s coveted ranch.

Immediately after episode ten, The World Is Purple, was released, most fingers were pointing at Roarke as the most likely candidate to be revealed as the Dutton’s murderous rival.

If you want to be surprised when you watch (and haven’t done so yet), giddy-up and away!

Well, damn! Nobody can say that Yellowstone doesn’t know how to keep its audience on the edge of their seats — or, for that matter, how to knock ’em right the hell off. Sunday’s Season 3 finale was one shock after another — to the point that, although I think we’d all love it if Season 4 started next week — it’ll probably take us until next summer to really recover. What happened? What didn’t! Read on, and as the smoke clears, we’ll discuss.

Yellowstone Recap Season 3 Episode 10 Finale John shot‘HE’S LIVING PROOF THAT ONLY THE GOOD DIE YOUNG’ | As “The World Is Purple” began, tensions were running high in the bunk house. Not only was Mia perturbed about Jimmy having been branded, but Lloyd was understandably a bit crestfallen to see Laramie waking up in Walker’s bed. At Garrett’s place, Jamie’s biological father shared the sordid story of the day that he killed his boy’s mother. He’d come home from a long haul to find Jamie screaming, using a crack pipe for a substitute nipple, and his mother getting screwed over the sink. “I knew that you had only one chance in life,” Garrett said, “and that was without her in it. So I did what I did” — and looking at what Jamie had become, he didn’t regret it, either. When talk turned to Yellowstone and how Jamie was about to lose the place that he’d been raised to run, Garrett told him that it wasn’t a place but an empire. One didn’t buy an empire, he explained. One took it. But how? “Simplest thing on earth,” said Garrett. “Ya kill the king.” (Gulp.)

During a meeting with Rainwater, Angela derided the chief and scoffed at his hopefulness that one day their tribe would again call Yellowstone home. “Not with you [in charge], we won’t,” she said. He was trying to go about things in a moral way, and there was no room for morality in a war. “Winners are never judged by how” they win, she pointed out. “They save that for the losers.” (She’s growing on me, that Angela.) When Rip returned home after his long, long night, Beth joked, “Who’d ya kill?” only to realize that, oh, he had killed someone. When he wouldn’t tell her the names of the deceased — maybe he didn’t know Wade’s son’s name, either — she decided that she didn’t care. A Nietzschean to the core, she believed in loving with your whole soul and killing anything that wants to destroy what you love. Now, “if you’ll excuse me,” she said, “I gotta kill someone, too.”

‘THAT TRAIN ONLY RUNS IN ONE DIRECTION’ | Later, Rip reported to John that he’d gotten back that “thing” that he wanted retrieved from Wade. Rip also reported that the dead man and his son had been working for a guy named Roarke. Name didn’t mean anything to John — not yet, anyway. But the day was young. Crossing paths with Kayce, John expressed his delight that his plan for his son was working out so well. And again, the day was young! En route to the rodeo, Mia pushed and pushed Jimmy to explain why he’d let himself be branded like he was John’s cattle. Laramie noted that Walker had been branded, too, but he was so fine, “he could have his a–hole on his chest, and I wouldn’t care.” (Deep thoughts from Laramie could develop into one of my favorite bits of this show.) At Jamie’s office, Roarke, Willa and Team Market Equities gathered with Rainwater, Mo and Angela, the governor, and John and Beth to decide the fate of Yellowstone. It did not go as planned — at least not as Roarke and Willa planned.

No sooner had Roarke begun making his pitch to Lynelle than everyone received a breaking-news text: Willa had been accused of workplace harassment by a Jane Doe. “Problem, Willa?” asked Beth. “Take that, you f–king bitch.” Excusing herself, Willa said that Roarke could speak on her behalf. Roarke? Oooh, said John, a lightbulb going off over his head. Anyway, after Roarke made his presentation, Jamie usurped Beth’s power of attorney, owing to the fact that she’d filed her paperwork in Utah, not Montana, and approved the Yellowstone sale to Market Equities so that the Land Commission didn’t condemn the property and bankrupt the Duttons. He didn’t have a choice, he argued. “There is no choice anymore, John,” added Lynelle. “There are only options.” Thankfully, Rainwater had a plan — to have Angela file a class-action lawsuit to block the development due to the impact that it would have on the local wildlife. “We stopped wolf hunting for a decade,” she said, smirking at Roarke. “What do you think we’re gonna do to an airport?”

Yellowstone Recap Season 3 Episode 10 Finale John shot‘THAT LAND IS MINE’ | Before Rainwater left, he asked John to join his lawsuit — it would serve both their purposes and wouldn’t cost the rancher a dime. As the office began to clear out, John took a swipe at Roarke about his “lost pet” (Wade). “You think you’re winning this game, you don’t even know the goddamn rules,” sneered the Dutton patriarch. “But don’t worry, I’ma teach ‘em to ya.” On his way out the door, he and Beth gave Jamie a chance to speak now or forever hold his peace; having turned a corner and started to buy into Garrett as his real family, he chose the latter. “From now on,” he told Lynelle, “what I do is for me.” Yikes — methinks Bad Jamie just got worse. At the rodeo, Mia overheard enough of a conversation to glean that Jimmy was done riding bucking broncos. Was he really just John Dutton’s steer now? “When I saw you rodeo, I saw a really happy man — and I fell in love with him,” she said. “Be that man, and you can have me. But be this one, and I’ll see ya later.” Good Lord, that girl got Jimmy to agree to once again risk his neck (and every other part of him!). Next thing we knew, he was back in the saddle at the ranch and getting thrown so hard, it left him unconscious.

En route back to his office, Rainwater insisted to Angela that he could and would beat the Duttons and everyone else by playing by their rules. That was folly, she reiterated. They make rules for the slaves and rules for the masters — and he was choosing the slaves’ rules. Maybe Mo would take matters into his own hands, she suggested, eyeing the driver. Maybe he’d kill John, “make war for our people, and then… we go home.” (How many targets can John have painted on him? Sheesh.) Meanwhile, at Kayce’s office the chairmen of the Stock Growers Assoc. came by to say that they wanted to make him Montana’s next governor. He laughed, but they were as serious as a heart attack. Better get used to wearing a suit, buddy! Elsewhere, Rip had his mother’s body exhumed for the sweetest reason that I reckon one could dig up a corpse — he wanted to take the ring off her finger to give it to Beth. Back at Roarke’s, a livid Willa noted that this s–t didn’t feel like a land deal in Montana, “it feels like an oil deal in Yemen — and from now on, that’s how we treat it.” Could Roarke do that? As Josh Holloway foreshadowed for TVLine at the start of the season, you bet he could.

Yellowstone Recap Season 3 Episode 10 Finale John shot‘THE WHOLE F–KING VALLEY’S DYING TODAY’ | As the episode and the season drew to a close, Beth and her secretary were cleaning out her office (and really all of Schwartz & Mayer) when the assistant began opening a box within another box that was addressed to her boss. Quicker than Beth could get out the word “Don’t,” ka-freakin’-boom! At the same time, gunmen burst into Kayce’s office and opened fire! And while John was helping a mother and her kid change her flat on the side of the road, a van pulled up. “You’re John Dutton, aren’t you?” asked the driver. “Yep,” he replied. With that, the back of the van flew open, and another guy filled not only John full of lead but the mom, too. (Probably would’ve offed the kid as well if he hadn’t wandered off to find the lost lug nuts.) Panicking when he couldn’t reach anyone on the phone, Rip rang Jamie, who at that point was so far gone, he said, “I don’t think you should call me anymore.” Oh, Jamie. At Yellowstone, Rip spotted a dying horse being pecked at by crows and, sadly, put it down. “I’d rather kill a thousand men,” he sighed, “than shoot another horse.” Finally, we got a last glimpse of John, significantly worse for wear but at least alive — perhaps owing to the fact that his hated cell phone had taken a bullet! “Doesn’t that f—kin’ figure,” he grumbled. Man, had he ever been right when he’d told Kayce that he wasn’t gonna have a good day!

So, what did you think of the Season 3 finale? Grade it in the poll below, then hit the comments. We know John’s alive, at least for now. But what about Kayce… and Beth?

If you’d rather watch first, read later, git along, little dogies. This ain’t the place for you.

As Season 3 of Yellowstone neared its conclusion Sunday, Jamie did what I reckon we all figured he would and looked up his biological father, Garrett Randall (Will Patton). That was how desperate the AG was to figure himself out. Needless to say, it wasn’t pretty. “Your mother sold her body for drugs, and I killed her for it,” said Garrett. “That’s who you are. That’s where you come from.” The ex-con did his best to shoo away his offspring. “You don’t wanna know me,” Garrett insisted. “I killed everything I ever loved and everything that ever loved me.” But Jamie couldn’t bring himself to leave. “I need to know you,” he said, “or I will never know myself.” So they had a coffee that ya gotta imagine is only gonna lead to heartache down the road. And that was just one of the big twists in the penultimate episode. Read on, and we’ll go over all the rest.

‘YOU DON’T KNOW JOHN DUTTON LIKE I DO’ | As “Meaner Than Evil” began, we learned that Colby and Teeter had survived their run-in with Wade — but barely. She had a horrifying gash in her forehead that Colby — yikes! — stapled shut. On the plus side, he finally kissed her. “You shoulda f–ked me while I still had a face,” she said afterwards, “but that’s all right. We’ll work on your timing.” (For once, I actually understood what she said!) Back at the bar where Walker was singing last week, the “dead” man turned down a fan’s offer to spend the night — with disastrous consequences. Leaving the place alone, he wound up being abducted by Rip and Lloyd. The following morning, Kayce suggested to Monica that they bail on Tate’s Meet the Teacher night and home-school their son. If his future was gonna be running the ranch, there was nothing that he couldn’t learn there, anyway. Monica doubted that her parenting style and John’s would gel. Why? asked Kayce. John had never once spanked him. “Nope, just burned his brand into you,” his wife replied. Game, set, match, Monica.

Later, Rip informed Kayce that “I found something that you forgot to get rid of” and dragged it back to the ranch. In other words, Walker. Why, Rip wanted to know, was that problem still breathing? Kayce’d killed many a man, he admitted, but “I never murdered one and never will.” So what the hell were they gonna do with Walker now? They could either bury him in one of those graves John had left open a few episodes back or… or Walker could come back to the ranch and prove himself. He wasn’t crazy about that idea, but as Kayce pointed out, “Beats dyin’.” While all that was going on, Wade and his son visited Roarke, who encouraged them to keep poking at John until he “does something he can’t take back,” something that Market Equities can use in court. All right, said the codger, but he wanted to bring in some extra men, then. Do I have to tell you that those extra men wouldn’t get there in time? Didn’t think so.

yellowstone recap season 3 episode 9 meaner than evil jamie meets father‘DON’T DO ANYTHING STUPID’ | Once John and Kayce were brought up to speed on what had happened to Colby and Teeter, the Duttons’ patriarch told Rip that the bunkhouse boys had the all-clear to go ahead and exact vengeance. Be smart about it, he said, “and take that trash to the f–king train station.” Oh, and bring him back that mysterious thing that Wade had that belonged to John! When Beth arrived for work at Schwartz & Meyer, she found Willa at her desk. Well, it wasn’t actually her desk, ”not anymore,” said Willa. “It’s my desk now.” And since Market Equities had become S&M’s major shareholders, Beth was fired. Once the sting wore off, though, Willa said, Beth could come work for her. Fat chance. “When all this is over, I’m gonna hang your diploma above my toilet in my guest house,” she hissed. “The sting never fades with me. It is a painful lesson and one you’re about to learn.”

Before the bunkhouse boys took off to get even with Wade and his son (does he even have a name?), Laramie got a look at Walker, and simply put, one look was all it took. Yellowstone was beginning to lose its luster for Mia, but “I dunno,” said her pal. “I think there might be a little luster left.” In the field, Wade and Junior (OK, let’s call him that) rode after a random bunkhouse boy… straight into an ambush. Junior rode smack into a tree branch and was killed instantly. “Got off easy,” grumbled Lloyd. Wade, not so much. First, Rip roped him and dragged him through the sagebrush, then he looped a noose around his neck and demanded the name of his employer. Not sure Wade hesitated even five seconds before giving up Roarke. Finally, Rip had Walker prove himself by cutting off of the old man’s chest his Yellowstone brand — that’s what belonged to John that he wanted back! “Karma comes in all shapes and sizes,” sighed Walker. “Guess it’s me today.” Once that ugly business was done, Rip hanged Wade.

yellowstone recap season 3 episode 9 meaner than evil jamie meets father‘EVERYONE FROM THREE STATES AROUND DUMPS THEIR SECRETS OFF THAT CLIFF’ | After an awkward family dinner at which Kayce made the mistake of suggesting they talk business, John dropped some wisdom on his son. “Ya can’t reason with evil,” he said. “Evil wants what it wants and won’t stop until it’s won or ya kill it. The way to kill it is to be meaner than evil.” And the trick? It’s figuring out how to do that but still love your family and enjoy a sunrise. As the episode drew to a close, Lloyd and Walker dumped the bodies “at the train station” in what the older man explained was “a county with no people, no sheriff and no 12 jurors of your peers.” Everybody got rid of their secrets at that particular cliff, he added. Walker’s job now was to figure out how not to become one of ’em! Meanwhile, Rip branded Colby and Teeter; they were Yellowstone for life now. So, what did you think of “Meaner Than Evil”? No good can come of Jamie bonding with Garrett, right? Hit the comments with your thoughts.
