The fourth season of ‘Yellowstone’ is finally here and the Dutton Family seems to have lost everything. Well, not everything, but yes, they have lost a lot of things in these three seasons. The previous season ended on a massive cliffhanger as all members of the Dutton Family were targeted and were being assassinated.

Since then, fans have been waiting for the fourth edition to arrive to know which member of the Dutton Family survived and which doesn’t. The first episode of Season 4 starts from where we left off. There is carnage everywhere and people from the Dutton Family are being hunted. The first thing that the episode confirms is that Beth (Kelly Reilly) survived the attack and she is heavily injured. Secondly, Kayce (Luke Grimes) is fighting the perpetrators who tried the kill the kids of the Dutton Family.

During the fight, he was struck on his abdomen and he was down. Then, we see John (Kevin Costner) taken to the hospital. A few moments ago, we get to know that John has survived as well. But there’s no news of Casey or Wes. As soon as John is conscious, he tried to flee the hospital. Beth sees him and John asks him, ‘What did we lose?’ To which, Beth says, ‘Define losing?’ However, in the later moment, a man named Spears says that he knows who shot the Duttons. Police capture him and the Chief told his junior to do how our ancestors used to do. The man is tied behind a horse and taken for a round. He does tell the policeman about why they did it?

Elsewhere, Beth meets a young guy whose father is going to die in the same hospital. His father dies after a heroin overdose.

In the end, John has come back home and Beth is talking to him about what happened. The Dutton Ranch is gone, but who else from the Dutton Family survived is still the big question. Is  Keyce still alive? Yes, he did survive. Where is Wes? Let’s hope, we get answers to that questions as well.

The first episode was everything that we needed from the premiere episode. We got a tease about what happened to the Duttons, but we are still figuring out who did this?

‘Yellowstone’ will return to Paramount with the third episode on November 14 at 8 pm EST.
