This episode feels like a filler.

Nothing much is going on in Teonna’s storyline. At least, we see Debra Morgan as Marshal Fossett.

So, Whitfield has ski resort in mind in 1923.

Is Spencer having some kind of awakening or something? Only in Galveston he feels the urgency to get to Montana. 🙄

The Duttons have been living at that house for decades and they never take any safety measures to detect and prevent wild-animal intrusion??!

Wait a minute, Elsa’s voice over at the end mentioning “the people of Palestine and Israel” — Israel didn’t exist in 1923.

So when Elizabeth goes out to get eggs, or whatever she was doing since there were eggs in the meat locker, I knew an animal would be in there. I'm yelling out another mountain lion!!  Bear!!!  When I saw the wolf I burst out laughing. 

Is this show 1923, or 24?  Interesting back then you had to get rabies shots in the stomach. I had to have them a few years ago and they put them in the bite marks on my hand. Then I went back for 3 weeks to get another shot in the arm.  The hand shots were awful.  But how f ing stupid is she to think it would be better to die of rabies?  Please, go home. I feel kinda bad for the actress, her characters are disliked on not one, but two shows. 

So the Italian cousin is the Galveston mob?  And now Spencer has to make a side trip to Ft Worth?  Why not just take off with the little guy and head to Montana. 

The writing on this show is getting extremely lazy. 

Yeah I'm sure all Palestine and Israel have to worry about is cold weather. Esp since Israel doesn't exist in 1923. Did he throw that in for his Jewish viewers? It was called various names until the State of Israel was established 25 years later.  

This is like on West Wing when Bartlett got a really old map that didn't show Israel, because it was drawn in the 1800s, and Leo told him he couldn't hang it up. CTFD. 

If you're going to make up dumb quotes, at least make up accurate ones. Hell is watching these shows. BOOM

How did the wolf get in the house? Do these people not know how to close a door?  "Just tell me where the blonde is, and I'll be on my way". 

I don't like the blizzard stuff, and I don't know what the woman and kids and their ranch hand have to add to the plot . We know how terribly Native Americans were treated. We know what the 14th Amendment is. 

And why couldn't they have just finished off that priest and marshall?  

I'm about done with 1923. Sheridan's shows are getting tiresome.

Pretty sure Elsa was referring to the people of Israel and Palestine who described Hell in Biblical times when they were writing the Bible. There is a lot of misinformation to unpack in that concept, but it is possibly—even likely— a believable thing for Elsa to say. 

The wolf getting in the house seems questionable, but the likelier bear seems a bit much, too. And hibernating.  I assume it is such a hard winter that everyone is starving. it is melodramatic, but this story is high on the melodrama.

I watched this episode in about 15 minutes, fast forwarding through almost everything except Helen Mirren's scenes, the scene with Spencer and Gilles Marini* at the end because I wanted to see if he was at least headed north, and the scene on the boat with Alexandra.  If something happened that I need to know later in the season, I guess I'm SOL.   Or I might rewatch while reading a book.  I felt bad about abandoning my longtime Pretend Boyfriend, Harrison Ford.  

*If Giles Marini (my short term Pretend Boyfriend) is on the screen and I hit FF you know that I am so damn tired of watching Spencer Not Getting to Montana.   Honestly, it took Gus and McCall less time to drive their cattle herd from Texas to Montana.   I made a "joke" last season that it would end with Spencer getting to the ranch and saying "Aunt Cara, I'm home."  That may happen this season, except I really think they need to try and get Spencer and Alexandra together in the same place at some point.   They are the show's Young Hot Couple and it seems dumb to keep them apart for an entire season.  

And yes, I heard what I said.  :-)

The Spencer storyline has just become so tedious. We get it Taylor Sheridan, you’re just in love with “The Adventures of Spencer” but the rest of us want the story to move along and putting Spencer in more and more ridiculous scenarios is dragging the whole show down, and I’m just guessing were about to get the same tedium with his wife. Ugh.

Hinestly I’m ok with Spencer not getting to Montana. Because I am much more interested in the old folks dealing with their problems. I think we are getting snapsbots into the many contrasts of the world in the year of the story. In any case, alex and spencer in Montana isn’t goint to make the story more interesting, in my opinion.
