“No Good Horses” Being a lawyer and would-be politician, Jamie Dutton knows how to win an argument, except when dealing with his family. Beth, in particular, is Jamie’s most formidable opponent in the art of telling somebody off. To Jamie’s credit, he delivers one of his best takedowns in episode 3, comparing Beth to cancer, a disease that could very well claim their father’s life. Jamie’s words are as harsh as they are personal. Even Beth is impressed with her estranged brother, complimenting his word choice. That flattery quickly turns into an insult, however. By simply looking at him, Beth reminds herself that Jamie isn’t as smart as he makes himself out to be, at least in her eyes. Sorry, Jamie, but Beth always gets the last word.

Yet, nothing could fully prepare her for Beth’s wrath. Beth does some serious damage to the store, but she does an even greater number on Veronica’s ego, recapping their school days and annihilating her appearance.

“Half the Money” When it comes to tough love, nobody serves it better than Beth Dutton. At the bar, Beth notices a couple that’s not exactly #RelationshipGoals. Although the woman needs to use the bathroom, the man asserts that he’s going first while she orders him a beer. The woman likely would’ve complied if it weren’t for Beth’s intervention. Critical yet compassionate, Beth tells the woman that she has more power in the relationship than she assumes. Therefore, her husband should be ordering a drink for her. With this newfound perspective, the woman tells her man that she’s not taking orders from him anymore. There’s a little of Beth Dutton in every woman. Sometimes, you just need Beth Dutton herself around to ignite that flame.

Spotting him with his wife Victoria at a bar, Beth attempts to befriend Mrs. Jenkins. As far as Victoria is concerned, Beth is a barrel of laughs. What she doesn’t realize is that the joke’s on her husband, who tries to hide the awkward tension. When Dan’s left alone with her, Beth tells her business rival that she’s just getting started. After Dan, Beth will go after his wife and any other relatives he might have. If Dan continues to stand in her way, he can pretty much consider his family tree to be sawdust by the time Beth is through.
#6: Bummer Summer
“I Want to Be Him” Even if they had met under casual circumstances, Beth likely wouldn’t have gotten along with Summer Higgins, an environmental activist. A rocky relationship gets off on the worst foot possible when Beth first finds Summer in her father’s house. Beth thinks that Summer is an intruder. Summer thinks that Beth is John’s wife rather than his daughter. And John, well his morning just got a lot more complicated. He introduces Summer as a welcome guest, which Beth interprets as “prostitute.” While John convinces Beth to put down the knife, her words couldn’t be sharper as the three sit down to an uncomfortable breakfast. What starts as a debate about veganism snowballs into mudslinging as Beth tells Summer to die in the worst way possible.
#5: Say Her Name
Top 10 Best Yellowstone Moments
“The Long Black Train” As Beth flirts with Dan at the bar, another man enters the equation. Taking a shot at Dan’s age, the cowboy tries wrangling Beth away with a crude pickup line. Beth is in complete control of the situation, setting up both Dan and the cowboy for misfortune. After Dan takes one to the throat for her, Beth tells the cowboy to watch his language and hands. He doesn’t seem inclined to accept no as an answer. That is unless Beth has a gun to chase him away. Beth might not have a pistol, but her name alone is enough to scare the guy off. Who needs a firearm when your words are already like bullets?
#4: Trailer Park vs. Tornado
Stranger Things Season 4 Volume 2 Trailer Breakdown
“An Acceptable Surrender” Beth finds another rival in Roarke Morris, who plans on plopping an airport in the middle of the ranch. During one of their heated meetings, Roarke makes a compelling argument for why they should be on the same side. Although Beth can see the advantages of doing business with Roarke, there’s just one problem. John will never surrender his land and Beth isn’t about to sell her father out. While Roarke knows that Beth won’t go down without a fight, he seems confident of who has the upper hand. As they part ways, though, Beth assures him that she’s the tornado in this scenario, making him the trailer park. Roarke may be a fisherman, but Beth leaves him wriggling like a worm on a hook.
#3: Massive Misfire
Top 10 TV Shows That Experienced Massive Backlash
“The Long Black Train” Smoking is bad for your health, but getting on Beth’s bad side can be even worse. As Beth demands to see Dan, the restaurant manager is more concerned about the non-smoking policy. Before Alfred can get more than a few words out, Beth gives him a stern lesson on the differences between being a “ma’am,” “miss,” and “maiden.” Alfred had better choose his next words wisely, or else he may be headed for the old fork in the eye. After calling out the irony of the restaurant’s stance on cigarettes, Beth gets Dan’s attention. If Beth wanted, she also could’ve gotten a few free drinks out of the ordeal. As Beth ever so colorfully tells the bartender, though, Dan’s money is no good to her.
#2: Pencil Size Doesn’t Matter
“Tall Drink of Water” Whenever a guy finds Beth alone at the bar, they always have preconceived notions about her. They might not be able to read Beth, but she can sum up their life story based on a few observations. Beth is generous enough to give one floundering pickup artist a chance to walk away with dignity. When he practically dares her to tell him off, Beth holds nothing back. Like a sassy Sherlock, Beth deduces that the not-so-gentlemanly caller is a professor, divorcee, and hypocrite who doesn’t practice what he teaches. Based on his response, it’s safe to say that Beth got a lot more right than wrong. Just when the guy seems to be out of self-esteem, Beth throws in a jab concerning his “pencil” size.
#1: Have You Met Ted?
Top 10 Shocking Deaths in Yellowstone
“Daybreak” From the first episode, Beth Dutton establishes that she’s not one to be messed with… or hit on. At a bar (where Beth seems to do her best burning), a guy named Ted tries to buy her a drink. He also attempts to guess what brings her to this part of Montana. Ted isn’t as close as he thinks, but Beth’s deduction of him seems to be spot-on. She concludes that Ted is a real estate agent, a father, and an unhappily married man on the prowl for a one-night stand. The city boy doesn’t deny any of the above. Beth also assumes that Ted is bad in bed. She doesn’t stick around to find out, moving to a table with more cash to burn.
