WTF! I Can’t Believe 1923 Season 2 Killed Off THAT Character!
1923 season 2, episode 6 is a bloodbath, but one character’s death remains shocking considering their stature in the Yellowstone prequel.
Jack Dutton getting dumped in the infamous Train Station in1923season 2’s finale would make him the first of the Duttons to suffer that ignoble fate. Jack would also only be the second victim of the Train Station. TheTrain Station’s first victimis Christy (Cailyn Rice), a sex worker who was tortured to death by Donald Whitfield’s sociopathic paramour, Lindy (Madison Elise Rogers). Tragically,Jack sent to the Train Station means he won’t be buried in the Duttons' family graveyard.

Jack Isn’t Alone Among The Train Station’s Victims
Jack is potentially the first Dutton sent to the Train Station, but he won’t be the last. AlthoughYellowstoneis set a century after1923,Yellowstone’s season 5 and series finale, “Life is a Promise,” sawJamie Dutton (Wes Bentley) get sent to the Train Station. Audiences saw Jamie take a one-way ride down the gorge thanks to Beth Dutton (Kelly Reilly) and Rip Wheeler (Cole Hauser) before Jack Dutton, but, chronologically, Jamie is the most recent Dutton to be the Train Station’s victim.

However, there’s a chance the Duttons could intercept Jack’s body before Banner Creighton’s men can send him to the Train Station in1923’s season 2 finale. In that case, Jack could be buried with the other Duttons, and Jamie would be the only known Dutton sent to the Train Station. There’s also the fact thatJamie is not a Dutton by bloodto consider. Jamie was born Michael Randall and was adopted by John Dutton III (Kevin Costner), so he was never a true Dutton (as Beth gleefully liked to remind Jamie).
Will Jacob and Spencer Dutton Avenge Jack In 1923 Season 2’s Finale?
The Duttons Don’t Know About The Train Station Yet
The suddeness of Jack Dutton’s death means that by theend of1923season 2, episode 6, none of his family knows Jack is gone. Jacob is in Livingston, Montana, awaiting Spencer’s train to arrive, while Cara Dutton (Helen Mirren) and Elizabeth Strafford are home at the Dutton lodge. However, Cara knows Jack sped off to rendezvous with Jacob, and she may have sent one of the Duttons' cowboys after Jack.

1923 Season 2’s Shocking Death Solved Yellowstone’s John Dutton Grandfather Mystery
1923 season 2, episode 6, “The Mountain Teeth of Monsters,” solved a vital Yellowstone mystery, connecting to Kevin Costner’s John Dutton III.
Interestingly, going into1923season 2’s finale, the Duttons also have yet to learn about the Train Station. Perhaps tracking Jack to the Montana and Wyoming border is how the Dutton family discovers and adopts the gorge as their personal waste disposal unit. How Elizabeth Strafford reacts to Jack’s death is another tragic moment to come in1923season 2’s final episode. By the time1923is over, the Duttons' path will lead to the Train Station and audiences will learn whether Jack Dutton is the first of his family to be its victim.
