So I’m wondering if &/or why that’s symbolic?🧐Or it could be nothing more than to get fans like me to think way too much into it… I just couldn’t help myself to share that with you🤷🏼‍♀️😅🤦🏼‍♀️ (SRY&TY for reading this long reply)

    What I dont understand was why johnn needed the river to not flow to jenkin's land and prevent him from budi g the dam?
    I thought there was a scene where John wanted to build a dam too. Is it because jenkins Landis further up the river than John's so John wouldn't be able to build a dam if jenkin builds it?
    Also I think kacey wasn't shooting his brother in law to protect his brother. He shot him because his brother in law tried to kill him too, hi brother immediately went down after 1 shot. Kacey came in and kick the brother in law but he got up and tried to shoot kacey. But I think they were in the reservation land so maybe it was trespassing or something which makes it complicated, otherwise it's just self defense.

    • @oasntet
      @oasntet Рік тому

      The dam would have been built downstream of the Dutton ranch. It would cause flooding and erosion problems on a small part of the ranch. But it's clear John doesn't care about that; he only cares about stopping the development from being built.

    I think I missed the part where the paradise developer put out a hit on John. I read the opening scene as an actual accident and not a deliberate attack, and John still thinks he is owed a horse because the truck was there carrying equipment to build the development. Is there a clearer statement somewhere else in this episode, or is this detail from a later episode?
    Also, the developer's talk of migration to new land being in our DNA was a sales pitch to a potential home buyer; I'm not sure it should be taken as an honest belief since he's saying whatever he needs to to make a sale. He's there to make money, after all.
    Also also, an important detail about the feud over who owns the cattle is that the Indians (self-described) seem to have cut the fence to enable the cattle to wander into their land. It seems like the whole situation was deliberately engineered by the new tribe chairman, though maybe there'll be more details in later episodes.

Overall although the show has violent themes, the scenes where they are out in the nature like the first episode fishing part are so soothing and thereputic.

    Far as land being woven in our ( Americans? ) dna. One of the foundational aspects of this free society is our ability to own the land beneath us. Property Rights. Not sure if that's available anywhere else like ours. There's "land use rights" and other named pseudo ownership in other countries and "leased" land, but ownership of the land like in the USA doesn't exist. So from that standpoint it IS woven into our dna.
