Jack Was A Disappointing Dutton, But That Was The Point
Jack Is All About Unfulfilled Potential
Jack Dutton’sdeath in1923 ’s penultimate episodewas a genuine surprise because of his untapped potential drop that , sadly , will never be realized . Jack was a capable cowboy and a willing recipient role of his Uncle Jacob and Aunt Cara ’s wisdom , buthe was also naive , impulsive , and immature for his years . Jack ’s sexual love story with Elizabeth sense like puppy love , with Elizabeth grasping the very tangible and grownup realities of being a wife and succeeding parent much faster than Jack . Instead , Jack ’s loyalties were to his cowboy lifestyle first , his wife second .
Jack was not meant to be the heroic Dutton he imagined himself to be .
apparently , Jack had a lot of rise up to do , and1923 ’s fan want to see him mature alongside Elizabeth and their tike . alas , this is theYellowstonesaga , and more Dutton Isle of Man go violently thanlive to ripe former age like Spencerand Jacob .

What Happens To Elizabeth Strafford After Jack’s 1923 Death
A Part Of Jack Lives On With Elizabeth’s Pregnancy
One naturally feels deeply for Elizabeth Strafford ’s sound loss when she buries Jack Dutton at the end of1923season 2 ’s conclusion . Elizabeth became pregnantfor the 2d time , and she extend through with her intention to entrust the unrelenting violence of Montana and return to Boston . Elizabeth hop Jack would choose her and their child over the Yellowstone . Even if Jack lived , Elizabeth rightfully sensed Jack would never abandon his fellowship , even for the novel one he was making with Elizabeth .
1923 season 2 ’s finish ended on an unabashedly quixotic annotation between Alex and Spencer , and it ’s Yellowstone ’s reading of Jack and Rose in Titanic .
Jack Dutton ’s bequest populate on in his child with Elizabeth , and their story will potentially continue in1944 , the next Taylor SheridanYellowstoneprequel.1944could see Jack and Elizabeth ’s son or girl , who will be about 20 year one-time , add up to Montana to join the Duttons ' Yellowstone bequest . The senseless tragedy of Jack Dutton ’s death in1923would have been magnify if Jack had been institutionalize to the Train Station , and I ’m thankful Jack did n’t become the second dupe ofYellowstone ’s most dread final destination .
