6. The Beth vs. Summer showdown
It didn’t come as much of a surprise that Beth and Summer, played by Piper Perabo, weren’t going to get along too well. After all, the first introduction between the two characters included a knife and few choice words sure to leave a mark. The two shared a rocky relationship, which ultimately came to a head when the two women fought it out in a brutal and bloody physical altercation — But hey, whatever works.

In a scene in which Beth goes head to head with Josh Hollway’s Roarke Morris, a famous Yellowstone villain, Beth delivers one of her most famous lines: “You are the trailer park. I’m the tornado.”
4. Beth reverses the roles
In true Beth fashion, she pops the question to her longtime lover Rip in her own way. Beth presents him with a wedding band. Her one request? “The only thing I ask is that you outlive me so that I never have to live another day without you.” Is anyone else crying?
3. The best bar burn there ever was
There’s something about Beth Dutton in a bar that brings out the ruthless side of her. In this scene that takes place early on in the series, Beth clearly has no time to entertain the man, Ted, who has just approached her. Giving him a terribly vicious read, she leaves the man speechless.

In this vicious Beth Dutton scene, we see exactly what happens when you cross her. The interaction unfolds as you’d expect it would — A woman approaches Rip while Beth is at the bar, Beth sees it happen, the woman approaches and the Dutton daughter smashes a bottle over her head. The altercation lands her in handcuffs, turning their night out just a bit sour.
