Is Spencer returning to the Yellowstone ranch in the next episode of 1923?
In the previous episode, Spencer and Alexandra roamed around Tanganyika to hunt for a rabid hyena. Spencer proved that love can be anywhere when he proposed to Alexandra in the middle of a dangerous jungle. Sadly, while they were heading back, their car was attacked by an elephant.
Despite the car being overturned, Spencer managed to slay the beast. He and Alexandra then took refuge in a massive tree and drove away a bunch of ferocious lions before finally getting rescued by a search party.
Back in the USA, the war is just getting started as Banner returns home and gathers his army to exact revenge upon the Duttons. One of his people tracks down the family. Jacob, Cara, John, Emma, Jack, Elizabeth, and Bob are showered ruthlessly with bullets that neutralize Elizabeth and Jack. Bob gets killed on horseback.
John is killed when a bullet with a machine gun by Banner hit his left eye. Jacob is left bleeding. He and Elizabeth are taken home, and the former tells Cara that it's time for their "prodigal son" to return to Yellowstone to destroy their enemies.
Episode 4 will take place in the aftermath of these events. Spencer might return to Yellowstone, but what about his love story then? Will Alexandra join him in the USA?
Elizabeth was playing with death, but it looks like she will survive the injury as it appeared to be a flesh wound. Jack and Elizabeth must survive to get the Dutton bloodline ahead.
As for Jacob, there have been questions about the length of his survival because anything can happen in the Yellowstone universe.
