While there's still some mystery to just how many upcoming "Yellowstone" series are on the way, and whether or not the rumored sixth season is yet to come, the first episode in 22 months already answered the biggest question heading into the final Season 5 episodes: How will the Duttons' story end without Kevin Costner? John Dutton's doomed fate was revealed in the opening minutes before a sudden flashback to the days immediately following the midseason finale, though we have yet to see what actually went down with John.

CinemaBlend’s Riley Utley spoke with "Yellowstone" stars Cole Hauser and Kelly Reilly ahead of the long-awaited return, and the latter reflected on Rip’s departure for Texas as a prior scene worth revisiting ahead of the new episodes, and they teased Beth’s eventual trip down south to see her man. This led Reilly to talk about this six-episode half-season incorporating more flashbacks than usual, which led to a bit of speculation on my part.

00:14before, a month before, and sometimes it's like just literally a day before, so it kind of,
00:21it does take you a little bit to sort of, we haven't seen it, but that's, I remember when
00:25we were filming it, it's like how will the audience know where are we before or after,
00:31so this is something that's quite fun. This is a fun moment.
00:35Yeah, I mean it opens up with a bang for sure.
00:38Yeah, it's in flashbacks.
00:40Yeah, and it's cool to see a different place too. I mean, and Texas is its own
00:45animal on its own, so it's a really different, you know, look for Yellowstone.
