Spoiler alert: The following article contains spoilers for Yellowstone Season 5, Episode 11, “Three Fifty-Three.”
Oh, how much can change in a week to yellow stone Season 5, part 2. Episode 11, “Three Fifty-Three”, is much better than its predecessor, “The Apocalypse of Change.” After the November 24th episode, Taylor Sheridan’s TV show can finally get down to business. Hopefully the confusing flashbacks (which are introduced and properly utilized in episode 11 as opposed to episode 10) are a thing of the past. Now, yellow stone Season 5 could focus on developing and advancing its current story surrounding the treacherous war between Beth Dutton and Jamie Dutton.
The Dutton family war in yellow stone Season 5, which has been in the works since the series began, should take precedence. Happily, the events of episode 11 suggest that the all-out battle between Beth and Jamie has finally arrived. The characters are taking sides, and if we thought the war was deadly before “Three Fifty-Three,” the latest episode proves that no one is safe during the fight for Yellowstone Dutton Ranch.
Episode 11 Finally Kicks Off Yellowstone Season 5, Part 2
Flashbacks are used much more effectively in “Three Fifty-Three”
Unlike waste yellow stone Season 5, Episode 10, “Three Fifty-Three” is comprehensive. When the hour begins, the timeline becomes clear. Of course, this is partly due to the events of episode 10, but episode 11 is much easier to understand in terms of when each scene is taking place. This also helps the hour begins on the night of John Dutton III’s murder, which fills in many gaps surrounding his death, which means the story can now move forward. The scene is full of exposition, but it’s still intriguing to watch.
After showing how Kevin Costner yellow stone character died, season 5 finally kicks off. Episode 11 features many developments that seemingly set up the neo-Western drama’s final episodes including Kayce’s investigation into his father’s death, Steven Rawlings taking over John’s role as governor of Montana, Steven calling for Jamie to recuse himself, the Duttons’ loss of Yellowstone becoming almost imminent, and much more.
Ultimately, there were only two things to complain about after watching “Three Fifty-Three” – the political jargon is a bit heavy, and Rip, one of yellow stone best characters in the franchise, is absent most of the time. Other than that, episode 11 was fascinating from beginning to end, and made me want to watch it the next hour right after. Luckily, fans only have to wait a week to see what happens next.
Kayce continues to be the best part of Yellowstone Season 5, Part 2
Luke Grimes is featured in the show’s final episodes
One of the shining moments of Season 5, Episode 11 is when Kayce breaks into the coroner’s office, demanding that they look at their father’s body again. Given his character, Kayce remains calm, cool, and collected through it all. He comes prepared and gives coherent reasons why John was probably murdered, and he gets the job done. If it weren’t for Kayce, it would always be believed that John’s death was self-inflicted. Instead, Kayce’s determination pays off and her father’s case is reopened.
yellow stone Season 5 is giving Kayce her due, and Luke Grimes is making the most of it.
Kayce finally has a purpose in yellow stone Season 5, allowing his character to rise to prominence more than ever, which is a good thing. yellow stone Season 5 is giving Kayce her due and Luke Grimes is making the most of it. As mentioned above, the scene in the coroner’s office is a highlight for the character and actor, proving why Kayce is one of the best parts of yellow stone Season 5, part 2.
However, Kayce confronting Jamie, who makes a passionate and convincing plea of his innocence, is equally memorable. Kayce’s persistence in avenging his father’s death and his caring nature are at war, as displayed in the scene in Jamie’s office. But once Kayce confirms the truth, Jamie should be as afraid of his brother as he is of his sister.
