Marshals Boss Breaks Down Kayce's Intense Clash With Tate: 'That Is A John Dutton Moment'
"The more he tries to not be like his father, he's almost forced to become his father," Marshals showrunner Spencer Hudnut tells TVLine of Kayce this week.
In the latest season 2, episode 3 of Yellowstone, tension continues to simmer within the Dutton family as Kayce confronts his son Tate about the latter's refusal to see a therapist. Guilt-ridden over Tate's kidnapping, Kayce decides that the best course of action is to help his son confront his fears and heal. However, Tate resists, insisting that he doesn't need a shrink.
In an attempt to assert his authority, Kayce declares that there is no disobeying him on this matter, signaling a John Dutton moment where he channels his father's stern demeanor. Showrunner Spencer Hudnut reveals that this moment is the beginning of an emotional journey for Kayce, forcing him to better understand his father's anger masked by fear.
As the Dutton family drama unfolds, other characters also face their own struggles, such as Andrea's PTSD and Cal's battle with cancer, all while Belle takes on the role of supporting partner for her husband, Peter Calvin. The episode leaves viewers unsettled and eager to see how the Marshals take on Manhattan (and/or the Bronx) in the upcoming episodes.
