If either of you want to walk [away], I won\u2019t hold it against you.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
Rip, Azul and Zachariah corner all the cows into a pit, where Rip shoots them so that the deadly disease doesn\u2019t spread.\u00a0Rip tells Beth to go home, but she stays to support him.<\/p>\n

Exec producer Christina Alexandra Voros exclusively told Page Six that that scene is \u201done of the most powerful things that we\u2019ve seen on television, as far as animal work is concerned.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
She called it a \u201chuge endeavor\u201d and said they had about 150 head of cattle on the show.\u00a0\u201cOur animal coordination team did an incredible job keeping the animals safe.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Voros told Page Six that \u201cDutton Ranch\u201d is \u201cprobably one of the biggest animal shows on television.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cYellowstone\u201d mastermind Taylor Sheridan executive produces the show, but he\u2019s more hands off, as Voros has been overseeing it.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cTaylor is very good at pulling a team of people together that he trusts. He has so many shows happening at once, that the longer you\u2019ve been in the family, the more responsibility you get as you go along,\u201d she explained.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It turns out that Rip and Beth were sabotaged. In an earlier episode, they bought a diseased cow at auction with fudged records incorrectly giving the animal a clean bill of health. That animal spread the illness to their herd, forcing them to execute them all \u2013 and functionally kill their new business.\u00a0<\/p>\n
In retaliation, Rip finds the man who sold him the diseased cow and burns his trailer down.<\/p>\n
Voros told Page Six<\/a> that Beth and Rip want peace after everything they\u2019ve experienced on \u201cYellowstone,\u201d but in moments like this, \u201cwar keeps coming to their doorstep.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n\u201cDutton Ranch\u201d airs Fridays on Paramount+ and at 8 p.m on Paramount Network.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Holy cow.\u00a0 Warning: Spoilers ahead!
