The fourth episode of Yellowstone Season 5’s second half airs next Sunday, following episode three, which revealed the grim details of Governor John Dutton’s death.
Kevin Costner, the series’ lead since its 2018 debut, confirmed in June he wouldn’t return for the show’s apparent final season. Dutton’s death was staged as a suicide in the second half’s premiere, with Costner’s stunt double portraying the deceased governor.
Episode three delved deeper into his murder, depicting a chilling flashback where masked assailants abduct the sleeping governor, drug him, and force a gun into his hand, completing the staged suicide. Fans were confronted with a graphic coroner’s examination of his lifeless body.
As Yellowstone nears its conclusion, the unfolding drama promises more surprises. Here’s when and how to catch the next episode.
