This episode is not highly regarded by most people but it's the one that convinced me to stick with the series. John Dutton goes on a trip with his grand kid and under his supervision the kid almost dies. Some people say this is just tacked on drama but it goes with theme of the episode that John is worrying about his age and how he may not as capable as he once was nor qualified to take on certain responsibilities. Also. the criminal organization of the Dutton's was presented more. This show isn't just about boring Montana politicking, this is organized crime and follows how they are recruited, groomed and end up. Last thing i liked was how soothing this show is. John's cup of morning coffee as he looked out at the ranch and cowboys is powerful in its grandeur. I may not like these guys but what they have is worth the fight they are giving to keep it.
