How much money would it really take to save a ranch like one on “Yellowstone”? If you believe Beth (Kelly Reilly), the Dutton clan owes the government something like hundreds of millions of dollars in estate taxes following their father’s death, something that doesn’t seem like it can be right but also might be, because who really understands the tax code anyway? Either way, the Yellowstone’s in hot water, and the Duttons are having a fire sale.
That’s really the crux of this week’s episode, “Give The World Away.” The Duttons are selling basically everything not nailed down at the ranch, from $3 million horses bought by sucker Brazilians to chuck wagons and tractors.
