(crashing)

- Saved again by Ol' Bowlegged (chuckles) and Rip, Ripperson.

- Ripperson, Ripperson. (laughing)

- Hashtag Ripperson.

(upbeat rock music)

This is the Dutton Ranch. (motor rumbles)

We were there together, you missed the biker scene.

I really enjoyed this sequence

as a whole, it's a three act piece.

In the car together, on the way.

Getting out, trying to diffuse it.

Hey!

Act two, and then Teeter deciding

to tee off on the first dude.

(smacks) (grunts)

- You kinda roll up, we see all the bikes

and then we see oh, they're just sitting around a fire.

And you're like, "Okay, well how is this gonna go down?"

It's too early to get in a fight.

We pretty much had, like four or five people,

bikers per individual. - Yeah.

That was a rough day. (talking over each other)

- It was a pretty, I slept pretty well that night.

I definitely had a lavender bath.

- We always get whupped.

We're not out there just like,

pow, pow, pow, we're just

taking this beating. - Taking this.

(slams)

Throwing over shoulders, down on the ground.

(smacks)

And we didn't have any stunt doubles that day.

(smacks) - No.

- Yeah, we did it all.

- [Man] Let me guess, this is your field.

- You gonna burn it?

- That night, when we shot the scene where those boys

that we beat up, the bikers, came back

and we're there with the guns and the kit

and you know, our police gear.

And so we're watch to take a cue from John Dutton

and he says--

- I want you to dig.

- It was such a serious moment and

of course I'd read the script,

I know he's gonna actually let them go,

but as he's talking and tells them about who he is

and what this land is and really explains it to them.

- This field's mine, that fence, mine.

- It's just so serious, even though I fully know well

it's not, I got so caught up in it every time.

And I'm looking at the other guys and I'm thinking,

"Is he doing something different

"than we're supposed to do here?"

He's a (beeps), I have to say.

All of us, Cole and Luke, that night,

we were like, "This is legit."

It was very solemn and the tone was, it's just no joke.

- I have children.

- So do I.

From what I've seen, yours will be better off without you.

- I never get to be outside the show,

but in that moment, I was watching Yellowstone.

And I've never actually seen Yellowstone

the way the audience sees it.

None of us have, because you can't, it's impossible.

- I don't think we'll be seeing them again.

- Nope.

(upbeat rock music)

- Welcome.

- Thanks, guy.

How you doin' back there, baby?

- Fine, thanks.

- Okay, 'cause you oughta be up here

on mama's lap, but that's all right.

It's okay. (laughing)

Teeter likes to

get real, real close. (laughing drowns out talking)

And sometimes, she might wanna touch you a little bit,

get all up in your personal space.

- Can you not.

It's alright, baby.

(laughs) - Okay, so how you feel

right now is, this is what makes it so fascinating,

to try to hold that space while she's doing it.

- Yeah, and you don't think you're any different

than Teeter. (laughing)

In terms of physical space.

(upbeat rock music) (spits)

- You was done with that, wasn't you?

(spitting in spittoon) I have gum in my mouth now,

'cause I'm like, a little meta you guys.

I used gum in the audition 'cause I just felt

like she was somebody who dipped

and fun fact, I went to the dentist.

Now I'm using fake dip, right, for all those scenes.

(spits)

You're the one who I guess had experience with it before.

You're like, "Do not use that stuff

"until you roll on the day, you're gonna get a..."

A canker sore?

- Yeah, that,

among other things. - Which I did.

In addition to, I hadn't seen my dentist

in about four months and I go in for my cleaning

and I have a massive cavity in between my two front teeth,

where I was shooting the artificial tobacco.

'Cause that stuff is made out of, like corn syrup and hope.

(laughing)

It's just like, you know, liquid cavity shooting out.

(spits)

- Talk to me about the experience of dipping.

How much practicing did you do?

- A lot, and then a lot of my practice went out the window.

Because, I don't know if any of you have this experience,

but my adrenaline kicks pretty hard before I start shooting

and where that shows up the most is in my hands.

So they suddenly aren't doing everything

that I'm wanting them to do. - Right.

- Or my brain is telling them to do.

So even though I walked around for months, like...

practicing this thing, which I now no longer can do,

on the day I couldn't do it at all and I ended up having

to pack the dip against my belt buckle.

I think Cole Hauser was like, "Girl, let me help you out."

- I like that girl.

- The biker fight, you came in, we were trying

to be pretty cool and you came in and threw the first punch.

(smacks) (grunts)

Do you enjoy that physical side, fighting and the horses?

I mean, do you like that stuff, are you into it?

'Cause that's hard work.

- It's my favorite.

That was fun.

'Cause you're completely out of your head.

- Yeah.

- It's like sports, and I come from a sport background.

And I think, (anticlimactic music)

most of us come from a sport background.

Sorry, I was throwing a look at you.

- Badminton champion, by the way.

- Yes?

(upbeat music)

- We all do sports. - Badminton.

- We're all good at sports. - Champion.

- Really? - Yeah, seriously.

- Are you kidding me? - At his college, yes.

Seriously, no joke, no joke. - Badminton, this kid

right here.

- That is very classy, that's like a very classy--

- He doesn't like to talk about it.

- I don't bring it up a whole lot,

'cause it's like, we all are stupendous athletes, yes.

We've all accomplished tremendous things

in terms of athletics and sports.

But that's not what we're here to talk about.

(laughing)

- But we could if we wanted to.

- We could, forever, at length.

But I'm not gonna hijack the whole thing.

- Yeah Jimmy, we saw you out there looking

just like Andrea Fappani.

- Who?

Talking about stunts and performing fights.

- Yeah, I mean I love it, do you guys love it?

I love it.

- Yeah, I mean I like it. - You have mixed feelings

about it. - I don't like it

as much as you do.

- I love it.

- Because we get, I think it happens (beeps) kicking

on a much more regular basis.

(smacks) (grunts)

(grunts) (thuds)

- You know, you have so many things to do,

where you're getting in fights with bikers.

(smacks) (grunts)

You're on horses. - The elements.

- There's no way to really plan for any of it, right?

- No. - Right, like how did you--

- I learned that on the cow day.

- (yelling) Hey, hey, hey,

hey, hey, hey! - Get it, get it!

- You first said, welcome to Yellowstone.

And then I'm pretty sure you called it Yellowstone Light.

'Cause I was like, "This is a big deal."

(laughing)

I was like, this is some dangerous (beeps).

You can't look afraid, you know,

you just like, hear your job ending on the other side

of your fear if you give in to it. (chuckles)

So you're like, "I'm not afraid of anything,

"even if I don't know how to ride a horse."

Which I did, by the time I went on.

- She's a hand.

(upbeat rock music)

- Yeah, you were amazing.

I remember you being so nervous about riding,

then you were incredible.

Will you talk about your background with horses a little?

- Man, I've been ballin' and draggin'

since I could bounce piss off a rug.

I grew up with horses.

My mom had a really bad fall.

She got thrown off a horse and her foot got stuck

in the stirrup, and she was dragged around an arena.

And that was sort of the end of--

- That. - Horse days.

I think I absorbed some of that fear.

I rode enough, Taylor hooked me up with his guy out in LA

and then of course, the people out in Utah.

On a show like this, which is so great,

is you can kinda live it.

You can live that life a little more.

And I don't know if you guys felt this way at all,

but it was sort of hard to go back.

To go away and to not be riding horses.

- Mm, takes a little bit of time to adjust.

- It's pretty special scenario that we've built up.

- It's a pretty freaky cool job.

(beeps) (upbeat rock music)

(taps)

- Every road from the rodeo

(newspaper rustles) leads right here.

- For so many people, I think that doing anything

with Kevin Costner on camera, just period,

would be extremely intimidating.

- Nauseous and confused is your natural state of being.

- Obviously, you've been around him for three years.

But I would imagine having such a meaty scene

to do when you're physically not able to use all

of kind of like, maybe your tools that you would be able

to use in all of your other scenes.

On top of that, you're also not fully clothed,

which I think that clothes as an artists

kind of give you a sense of security.

What was that like, you know, doing that scene with Kevin?

- Kevin's such a brilliant minimalist.

He's so incredible at just living,

almost it's seemingly effortlessly in space.

And to do a scene with Kevin where I'm strapped to a bed

and can't move, I'm a sort of minimalist by necessity.

- Congratulations for that.

- I think it's easy as an actor to hide in (beeps).

Like if you watch these segments,

I'm sort of always reaching around and touching stuff,

and it's a way to release tension.

It's a way to sort of ground yourself in a space.

And when all that (beeps) gets stripped away, (chuckles)

and all you can move is your mouth and your eyes,

that's a deeply intimidating experience.

'Cause I think then, the temptation becomes

to do way too much. - Right.

And I haven't seen this scene yet,
