Something big needs to happen in this show after all.

With Yellowstone episode 5 largely bringing disappointment to fans in terms of plot twists and story development, the preview for episode 6 appears to spark hopes that something big is about to happen very soon.

Aside from quality time between John and Kayce, an EMT helicopter, and Summer exploring the ranch, the preview briefly shows us John hugging someone with dark curly hair who seems to be crying. All things point at something dramatic happening in episode 6, and Yellowstone fans are already placing bets on who is going to get killed off.

Some think that the old rancher is going to die, mainly because of how many times John asked him if he was able to do the long ride in episode 5. Others argue that this character is not so important to the story for his death to actually mean something.

"I think Tate gets hurt or killed. Both kids being taken by tragedy would certainly be "The end of us" as far as Kayce and Monica are concerned," Redditor Kylel036 suggested.

Others believe that Kayce is about to die, since he "doesn't really add anything" to the show and remains "ambivalent about his relationship to John and the ranch and angsty over how it impacts his wife and son."

No matter how hard some people root for certain Duttons to die, it seems that the family has a plot armor "too strong for any of them to die at this point", as fans put it. Rip also doesn't look like he is about to get killed off, and fans have long abandoned hopes for Yellowstone to surprise its viewers by taking unexpected turns.

New episode of Yellowstone arrives next Sunday, December 11 on Paramount Network. The first season will consist of 14 episodes.
