Is Yellowstone Herding the Ultimate Heartache Toward Kayce — and a Whole New Life?

The wolf was literally at the front door as Monica broke some happy news to her husband.

We don’t refer to Kayce and Monica as the most tortured couple on Yellowstone for nothing… they’ve been through the wringer and not always emerged together. Lately, however, things have been pretty darn idyllic what with the new homestead, dog, and the breaking news…

Despite the awkwardness of Tate’s, erm, bath troubles that led Monica to seek out Kayce on the front porch, it wound up being a beautiful private moment between the two as Monica told Kayce that they had, once again, “Bleeped like rabbits until they made a baby.”

Kayce, being the softie heartthrob that he is, was thrilled of course, and nuzzled his wife’s neck and hair and kissed her. Tate even took the news well, and handily demonstrated that he already knows how babies are made in the process, which let Kayce off the hook for “the talk.”

So, why then, was the first thought that popped into our heads, “Uh oh, what’s going to happen?” Because this is Yellowstone, where bad things inevitably occur, that’s why. If you were paying close attention, you’ll have realized that the symbolism was right there…

The wolf was literally at Kayce’s door right before Monica broke the happy news, which leads us to believe that something is going to go down that will upset the proverbial apple cart. While the wolf being at one’s door is typically a harbinger of financial woes, in this case, it may signal ruin of a different kind… as in the ruination of a marriage.

As we all know, when a character on a nailbiter such as Yellowstone comes up pregnant, there is cause for immediate concern. That’s a long nine months to go without something either ending the pregnancy or the marriage… or both.

In this case, it’s likely to be a domino effect. Should Monica suffer a miscarriage, it would almost certainly be one disappointment too many for the beleaguered young woman, who, as we mentioned earlier, has been through it. It could send her into the kind of tailspin or depression that can threaten a marriage. Especially, if it’s something related to his family’s perpetual troubles that causes her to lose the baby.

Again, if you’ve been paying attention, you won’t have missed the significance of Avery’s return. You know, the former ranch hand who told Kayce’s she’s in love with him? Mmhmm. These things don’t happen without a reason.

Chances are, Avery will be the one Kayce turns to when the going gets rough. Will he and Monica split first or will he cheat in a fit of despair? That remains to be seen.

Is Yellowstone Herding the Ultimate Heartache Toward Kayce — and a Whole New Life?

Most Popular

<p>We’ll raise a glass of wheatgrass to the passionate protester who put the spring back in John’s step in Season 4. But we won’t gulp it down until we find out whether she has what it takes to coexist with his hyper-protective daughter, Beth.</p>

<p>We understand that she’s been through a lot. Like, between son Tate’s kidnapping and the assaunt on the ranch, <em>a lot</em> a lot. But does Kayce’s better half have to be a Debbie Downer <em>all</em> the time?</p>

<p>As the pink-haired, marble-mouthed wrangler might inimitably put it, “Thisheer charcter’s a [bleepin’] hoot’nitdoesn’ matternone iffin’syaunderstand ’er.” Got all that, or ya want it with subtitles?</p>

<p>Too late, the diabolical businessman learned that Duttons and bulls are basically one and the same. “How’s that?” you ask. If you mess with either one, you’re gonna get the horns. (And no, not even a schmancy belt buckle can protect you.)</p>

<p>The spirited barrel racer who punched Jimmy’s V card in a hospital bed probably would rank higher on this list if we weren’t so ticked at her for putting him in that bed for a second time!</p>

<p>The soft-spoken Market Equities’ bigwig had us eating out of the palm of her hand from the moment she explained to weaselly lackey Ellis in Season 4 that she was never early nor late; his time adjusted to accommodate hers. #boss</p>

<p>You <em>know</em> this Market Equities power player had to have been a formidable foe for Beth if she managed to leave the show with no more harm done than a disgraced reputation. And, miracle of miracles, she did.</p>

<p>The Yellowstone’s most reluctant hand doesn’t go looking for trouble, it just has a way of… Aw, who are we kidding? The guitar-strumming Casanova <em>totally</em> goes looking for trouble, preferably the kind with curves.</p>

<p>We don’t know the last name of Rainwater’s right-hand man, but based on his history of kicking ass and taking names we’re gonna <em>guess</em> that it’s something along the lines Doesn’t Put Up With Any BS.</p>

<p>He may be as old as the dirt in which he’ll someday be buried, but make no mistake: The Yellowstone’s oldest hand can still throw down with the best of ’em. Just ask Walker.</p>

<p>It’s no wonder this scrappy youngster made such an impression on Beth: From the get-go, he was, in essence, a Mini-Me of her rough-hewn honey, Rip. Hell, Carter even pissed ’er off and lived to tell the tale!</p>

<p>If not the smartest person in the room, one of ’em — always. The savvy politician has a knack for looking at the big picture — not to mention a smile that has always made her irresistible to sometime lover John.</p>

<p>Ack! Brain force field up! Why? Because so adept at playing mind games is Jamie’s biological father that we can wind up feeling all twisted inside after nothing more than watching a scene that he’s in.</p>

<p>Not since J.R. Ewing was there a villain who delighted in his own cunning quite as much as the Market Equities mover and shaker that Beth hilariously described as the long-lost love child of Fabio and Lucille Ball.</p>

<p>Bless his heart, the Yellowstone outcast has as much trouble staying in the saddle as we do not falling off the edge of our seats while <em>watching</em> the show. But credit where it’s due: He’s got the spirit of any three cowboys combined.</p>

<p>Make no mistake: The chief of the Broken Rock Reservation wants for his people what is rightfully theirs. However, he refuses to just take it, instead traveling the high road in hopes of taking it with honor.</p>

<p>John’s adopted son gets so much hate that it’s easy to feel sorry for him. But then he goes and does something to remind you of what an opportunistic SOB he is, and you regret softening toward him for even an instant.</p>

<p>The youngest of John’s heirs is the kinda brute that you want on your side in a brawl and the kinda sweetheart that you want on your side in life. Even when he’s 100-percent wrong, he’s always <em>trying</em> to do right.</p>

<p>We didn’t blame young Carter a bit when he announced, “I wanna be him [when I grow up].” The Dutton family’s patriarch is the kinda complicated guy who can do bad, bad things and still leave you feeling like he’s a good guy.</p>

<p>We’re likelier to master trigonometry than we are to figure out John’s badass daughter, a metaphorical tornado who blows away everyone in her path — us included.</p>

<p>Beth gets all the best lines, it’s true. But we couldn’t keep the top spot from the tough-as-leather ranch foreman who can both shed tears after having to beat up a friend <em>and</em> kill a guy with a rattlesnake in an ice chest. </p>
