Episode Summary & Review

Summary

Cullen’s position is threatened after Durant files an injunction against the Union Pacific. Meanwhile, Elam deals with a dangerous newcomer.

Our Take

This one moves in fits and starts, with Durant’s legal maneuvering giving Bohannon something to grind against but never quite catching fire. The Elam storyline picks up some tension, though the new arrival feels more like a plot device than a real character. It’s a middling hour that sets up future conflict without delivering much payoff of its own. Fine if you’re already invested, skippable otherwise.
