Heading into the Season 1 finale, the Yellowstone sequel, Dutton Ranch, is oddly centered less on the titular ranch itself and more on the corruption inside the 10 Petal Ranch. The Jackson family started out as Beth (Kelly Reilly) and Rip’s (Cole Hauser) rivals in Texas, but over the course of Season 1, they’ve formed an uneasy truce. Technically, at this point, both Beth and Rip work for Beulah Jackson (Annette Bening). But now, as the Season 1 finale looms, Beth and Rip are poised to fight a battle against the Jacksons, which may or may not destroy the 10 Petal Ranch in the process.

Here’s what to expect from Dutton Ranch, Season 1, Episode 9, “El Padrino,” including the release date, streaming time, plus what to know about the plot ahead of time. No spoilers ahead for the Dutton Ranch finale. Light spoilers ahead for Episodes 1-8.

Dutton Ranch Season 1 Finale Release Date

Dutton Ranch Season 1, Episode 9, “El Padrino,” will stream on Paramount+ on Friday, July 3. This is the last episode in Season 1, but Dutton Ranch is already renewed for Season 2. So, if somehow not everything is wrapped up in this finale, don’t worry, more is coming, hopefully in 2027.

Dutton Ranch Season 1 Finale Streaming Time

New episodes of Dutton Ranch hit Paramount+ at Midnight Eastern Time, so you can start watching the new episode around that time with a standard Paramount+ account. Some viewers report that new episodes might drop as early as 9:00 p.m. Pacific Time on the Thursday before the actual release date.

Dutton Ranch Season 1 Finale Plot

Paramount and the entire Dutton Ranch camp are keeping things fairly quiet about the actual events of the Dutton Ranch finale. Only a few photos have been released, and we don’t know exactly how things are going to pan out.

Here’s what we do know: At the end of Episode 8, Rip and Beth discover that the 10 Petal Ranch and the Jackson family are involved in a smuggling ring. The extent of the smuggling is unclear at the end of Episode 8, but Episode 9 is surely going to get deep into that storyline, and it’s not going to be wrapped up easily!

On top of that, Episode 8 also ended with Carter (Finn Little) running away from home, leaving Beth and Rip devastated. In the midst of all of this, Beulah seemed to genuinely want to start a romantic life with Everett (Ed Harris), but we don’t know how much he knows about the corruption on her ranch. Finally, it’s unclear if Oreana (Natalie Alyn Lind) is going to reconcile with Carter, and if she’ll side with the Duttons, or her own wicked father, Rob-Will (Jai Courtney).

Again, there’s certainly a lot going on in this finale, so if there’s some kind of cliffhanger, we wouldn’t be surprised.
