I've been here since 1894.

My concern is survival.

You're no God, Jacob Dutton!

Spencer, this ranch

and your legacy are in peril.

You must come home
and fight this war.

You're a hunter.

Where does the next
adventure take you?

Where I'm going is dangerous.

Let's look

death in the eye, then,

I've sworn

to kill the Indian in you

Making war.

Bring her back to me.

I want the whole valley.

I'm a man of my word!

Aah!

- You read it.

"War has descended
upon this place."

I fear everything your parents

fought so hard to build

is being ripped from us.

I need

- Spencer!

Dear Spencer...

...we have sold
the last of our herd,

keeping only four bulls

and 100 heifers,

the seeds with which

you must rebuild the ranch

that trickery

and laws drafted by loan sharks

have stripped from us.

The road to Bozeman
is snowed over now,

passable only on horseback.

Our movement is restricted
to the lodge

and the pastures
around the barn until spring.

***

We dare not kill a beef,
so the men hunt.

Gone are the great feasts
of summer.

It is stews

and stale bread

and the bland fuel
of sustenance.

Like the bear,

we hibernate,

impatiently awaiting spring
and your return.

What time is the hearing?

First thing in the morning.

I'll be back tomorrow night.

Don't kill yourself racing
back to me in a blizzard.

If there's a blizzard,

I'll ride it out
in the comfort of the hotel.

You mean
the speakeasy beneath it?

That's exactly what I mean.

You know the Parkers
in Livingston?

I know the Parkers.

Mary Parker told me they have
a telephone in their house.

In her house.

Can you imagine?

When Albert goes to Bozeman,

he can stop by the telegram
office and for a nickel,

he can call Mary at her house

so she knows he got there safe.

Yeah, with Albert's
sense of direction,

that seems like a good plan.

Well, no, uh, you know,
I'm just saying,

would be nice to know
that you got there safe

instead of hoping
you made it safe

and wondering and worrying.

Well, if you weren't
worrying about me,

you'd be worrying
about something else.

Yes, but that would be
a worry of my own choosing.

Not one that you chose for me.

This trip is not a choice.
It's a duty.

So I'm just gonna say
I will not allow today

to be the last time
I see your face.

Thank you.

I'll see you tomorrow.

Whoa! Whoa!

They're fresh this morning.

More than the grizzly?

It's the accumulation

I might add.

They sacrifice themselves.

The trial's just

Huh.

I watched my grandfather.

There was a time

when everything was crafted

from the earth.

And everyone knew how to do it.

Why don't we know it anymore?
What happened?

White man happened.

The white man, he comes and
he trades with us

for our skins,

our horses and our beads.

He gives us sugar, knives,

iron.

Then the people

who want to craft things
from the land--

they want to trade
for the things

that make life easy.

And then when we run
out of things to trade,

the government
just gives us the things

till we forget how to make
the things ourselves.

Now they have our land.

We're beggars at their fort.

That's what governments want.

They want beggars.

Why would they want that?

Because beggars--

they cannot question.

A beggar who question
goes hungry.

A beggar who questions
gets sent off to schools

and taught not to question.

Better we don't beg at all.

Better to just

do things for yourself.

Till the government
finds out you're doing it.

Well, what does
the government care?

Because if we're doing things
for ourself...

...then we don't
need a government.

I'm gonna slip down
to the river,

see if I can catch
a deer crossing.
