Dutton Ranch episode 7 drops on Paramount+ on June 19, and boy, are we in for a doozy.
Last week, we saw the outcome of Rob-Will (Jai Courtney) arriving back on the scene, leaving Chet (Hart Denton) for dead after a shootout with Joaquin (Juan Pablo Raba) outside the 10 Petal ranch. Rob-Will claims that a man can only get rejected if he lets himself be pushed over, and starts his plans to wage war on the family who kicked him out.
At the same time, Beulah (Annette Bening) and Beth (Kelly Reilly) score their first business deal together after Beulah agrees to hire Beth as 10 Petal’s brand manager. The pair bonded over their shared trauma of families sacrificing everything to uphold a legacy, and that’s clearly left an impression on Beulah.
After Beulah hinted that 10 Petal would be throwing a party for its upcoming 190-year anniversary, the Dutton Ranch episode 7 trailer (which you can catch up with below) shows that she’s actually going to use the event to announce her successor.
With Rob-Will back in the picture, his reign of brutality might make him seem like the obvious choice. But fans of the Yellowstone spinoff have other ideas.
Dutton Ranch fans think Beulah will hand over 10 Petal to Beth and Rip in episode 7
Yep, you read that correctly: fans are convinced that Beulah is about to hand 10 Petal over to her neighbors-turned-rivals, Beth and Rip (Cole Hauser).
“Beth is the son everyone, including Beulah, wants but never had. Rip storming off with Beth trailing behind indicates trouble at 10P, which wouldn’t be the case if Beulah handed over control to Beth and Rip,” one fan wrote on Reddit.
Another argues, “I don’t disagree. But, looking at it on the flipside, Rip could also be angry because he doesn’t want to own a ranch that is essentially Yellowstone 2.0 with its problems.”
And problems there are. Rob-Will’s fury in episode 1 stemmed from accusations that he was fixing the ranch’s cattle books while in his role as foreman. On top of that, Beulah and Joaquin are trying to hide the fact that Rob-Will has also killed a rancher who allegedly let this slip.
“Zero chance Beulah is actually going to resign; she’s playing her son; she’s not dumb; they are fooling us here or hand it over,” a third argues.
Beth and Rip as the new owners isn’t too far-fetched, though. Both are currently working for Beulah after losing their own cattle to foot and mouth disease, and they’ve integrated well into the Jackson way of working.
Beulah clearly has a fondness for them both, alongside the reputation of John Dutton (Kevin Costner). On top of this, it’s clear that she’s hiding something about her personal life, putting emphasis on the fragility of the future during her conversations with Everett (Ed Harris).
For the Dutton Ranch story to progress, a huge move like this works to further things along. But who knows… truly, anybody could be Beulah’s first choice.
