Storyline
Did you know
- Trivia"Black leg" is a bacterial infection affecting cattle and sheep. Typically, spores pass through the wall of the GI tract and via the bloodstream enter the muscle and liver where they then lie dormant. This results in build-up of fluids in muscles. Under the correct conditions (usually anaerobic following injury) they germinate and bacilli grow. Toxins damage the capillaries causing a severe necrotising myositis (muscle inflammation). In cattle it is typically beef breeds who are affected, particularly animals in good health and good body condition. More frequently occurs in cattle between 6-24 months old but can affect animals of any age. In some animals, lesions occur following muscle trauma, which is thought to activate latent spores in the muscle. ends to affect animals in the summer months.
- Quotes
Jamie Dutton: My father hates me. Hates me. He hates me for becoming the very thing he asked me to become. No, forced me to be.
Sarah Atwood: Do you care that he hates you? Is his love something you feel you really need?
Jamie Dutton: Evidently not. I've lived without it my whole life.
Sarah Atwood: Mm-hmm.
Jamie Dutton: But I would like his approval. I want his appreciation for that fucking sacrifice.
Sarah Atwood: He can't give you that. He resents the tool that he relies on the most, because he can't be that tool. He's jealous of you, Jamie. And he's scared of you. He's scared because the future of that ranch depends on its evolution. If it doesn't evolve with society it will be devoured by society
Jamie Dutton: I know, I know. I've said that for years. Decades. And he's still running cow-calf pairs like it's the 1950s, when cow-calf pairs in the 1950s didn't even make any money.
Sarah Atwood: Cattle. Let me tell you the future of the cattle industry. Right now, the biggest meat processor in the United States is a Brazilian Corporation. 10,000 acres of rainforest cleared every day. For what? To raise cattle. Is that a coincidence? The future of the beef industry in the United States is no future.
Jamie Dutton: Mm-mm
Sarah Atwood: In twenty years Brazil will be to American beef what China is to American manufacturing. There will be no more cattle in America.
Jamie Dutton: That's why the airport development was vital to the ranch's future.
Sarah Atwood: You don't have to tell me that. Mm-mm. But you do have to tell the rest of Montana. Tourism is Montana's only resource. What else do you have, timber? Cutting down something it takes 200 years to replace? That is not a business. That is self mutilation. No. Tourism. That is all you have. And you can seize it or you can witness it. Those are your options.You love that ranch.
Jamie Dutton: I know.
Sarah Atwood: You love that ranch.
Jamie Dutton: It's the only thing I've ever loved.
Sarah Atwood: Let me help you save it. I can help you save it if you want me to.
Jamie Dutton: I do.
Sarah Atwood: Ask me, then. Ask me to help you save it.
Jamie Dutton: Will you help me? Help me.
Sarah Atwood: Yes. I will help you, baby. I will help you, baby.
