- Jamie Dutton: What do you want me to become?
- John Dutton: A lawyer.
- Jamie Dutton: You always say that you don't respect lawyers.
- John Dutton: Well, become one that I can.
- Jamie Dutton: Why a lawyer?
- John Dutton: Lawyers are the swords of this century. Words are weapons now. I need you to learn how to use 'em.
- Malcolm Beck: We, however, can offer you something of real value.
- Thomas Rainwater: I'm breathless with anticipation.
- Teal Beck: Slots.
- Malcolm Beck: Only available through our leasing company.
- Thomas Rainwater: Extorting a public official in his office. With three witnesses... How convenient for me.
- Teal Beck: Well, we are not obligated to lease out equipment to anyone, Chairman, we're simply offering you our expertise.
- Rip Wheeler: Hey Jimmy, you know why you never met any old rodeo cowboys? 'Cause there ain't any.
- Lloyd Pierce: I'm old.
- Rip Wheeler: Shit, you just look old.
- Martin: If a thing's gonna die, it's gonna die. But to kill it so you don't have to go through the pain of watching it die? Well, now it's dead and you're the killer. You suffer twice.
- Teal Beck: So this is what an Ivy League education can get you?
- Malcolm Beck: No, this you have to take.
- Teal Beck: It's a lot nicer than I expected.
- Malcolm Beck: Yeah. And he did all this with no money.
- Thomas Rainwater: Sorry to keep you waiting. How can I help you?
- Malcolm Beck: The sound of a casino making money is not cards flipping.It's slots ringing... Little soothing chimes and bells with no particular rhythm but certainly a harmony.And all of them-- each one-- in the universally pleasing key of 'C.'...
- Thomas Rainwater: I know how a casino works.And the cards flipping make a difference.My best croupier.Even with nine and a half fingers. He makes more than a row of gas station slots in a week.So, let's skip to the part where you talk to me about my casino in Paradise Valley.
- Malcolm Beck: Hm.Dan Jenkins.What value does he provide you at this point? You already took his land.
- Teal Beck: Whatever it is you think you're get from Jenkins, you'll get better from us.
- Thomas Rainwater: I'm not looking for partners.
- Teal Beck: And yet, you have one.
- Malcolm Beck: Jenkins is worthless to you.We, however, can offer you something of real value.
- Thomas Rainwater: I'm breathless with anticipation.
- Teal Beck: Slots.
- Malcolm Beck: Only available through our leasing company.
- Thomas Rainwater: Extorting a public official in his office.With three witnesses... How convenient for me.
- Teal Beck: We're not obligated to lease out equipment to anyone, Chairman, we're simply offering you our expertise. The contractors, the communities, the Dan Jenkinses.John Dutton. Whatever it is, we know how to negotiate it.Make it stay far away.You're 18 months from needing slot machines. You have plenty of problems to face before that one. The last thing we want to see is a casino the size of the fucking Wynn on the north gate of the Yellowstone National Park. And we will fuck you at every turn, Thomas.Unless we have a reason to support it.And right now, we don't.I suggest you give us one. I feel an 'or else' coming. You bet your ass it's coming.Ladies. Stirring hornets' nests all over. They're all so scared, Mo.They got good reason to be.

- John Dutton: Do you know what a fucking mess you've made in this valley?
- Dan Jenkins: I didn't kill your fucking cattle.
- John Dutton: I know. The Beck brothers did it so I'd turn on you. They did it because you're building the biggest casino outside of Vegas right against my goddamn fence. And if that's what they're gonna do to me, God knows what they're going to do to you. So you and I find ourselves in an interesting situation.
- Dan Jenkins: It's not my casino anymore. Rainwater is pushing me out.The Beck Brothers are pushing their way in.
- [Directs Tory]
- Dan Jenkins: A little late. Wait outside.
- John Dutton: I think you, Mister Rainwater, and I should all sit down and clear the air.
- Dan Jenkins: I can arrange that.
- John Dutton: Thank you.
- Lloyd Pierce: Watch how he does it. This is the next thing you need to learn.
- Monica Dutton: What I need to do is make some extra money.
- Lloyd Pierce: What the hell kind of trouble you in, kid?
- Monica Dutton: The kind it takes money to fix.
- Lloyd Pierce: There's a buckin' horse fraternity at the fairground.You stay on for eight, you'll pull a check. Sitting on a buckin' horse is the only thing I've seen you do well, Jimmy.
- Monica Dutton: Yeah, I was fuckin' taped to it.
- Lloyd Pierce: [laughs] Think tape can keep you in the saddle? You fall off 'em when they're running straight, you stick to 'em when they break in two. Maybe that's your talent, Jimmy.
- Monica Dutton: How much does it cost to enter?
- Lloyd Pierce: Couple hundred. But you can win a few grand.
- Monica Dutton: I don't have a couple hundred to spare.
- Lloyd Pierce: I'll spot you.
- Monica Dutton: Why would you do that?
- Lloyd Pierce: [Lloyd points to the brand on his chest] Why do you think?
- Farrier: This one's done. Lloyd. Ready for another.
- Lloyd Pierce: Go get us another horse.
