Yellowstone - John Duttons daughter

Going back to cali

Kash and Tessa rode two young colts back and forward in the yard. The two had set up the mechanical cow training device. Neither of them noticed the two cars drive in as they worked the horse back and forth after the flag.

"What's that flag for?" The lady asks as she climbs out her car and walks into the yard.

"Well, it teaches these colts to use their bodies the right way before we put them on a cow." Tessa explains not dropping her concentration from the horse or flag.

"Why not just use a cow?" She asks

"For hell's sakes, lady, that's kind of like practicing a fist fight when you're already in the middle of one, ya know what I mean? A tough call." Kash paused as he looked up at the lady.

"Oh, fuck, you're the Governor." He muttered, "Miss, I'm sorry. fuck, I... I'm sorry."

"Shut up, Kash." Tessa tells him

"I'm looking for your father, Tessa." She says looking towards the girl

"He's up there at the summer camp." Tessa tells her

"Well, can you point the way?" Asked Lynelle

"It's that way." She nods in the direction, "but you ain't gonna get them machines up there." She shakes her head, "Can you, uh, can you ride a horse?"

"Hmm. Yeah, I can ride." She nods

"Perfect, I'll go saddle you one." Tessa nods climbing off her horse, "hold him, please." Tessa passes the reins to Kash

"Ma'am, we can't have you on a horse." The sheriff says quietly to Lynelle, "Safety concerns."

"He's, uh...  He's saying no to the horse, so..." Lynelle trails off, "He's worried Montana won't survive if I fall off. "

"Well, hell, uh..." Tessa glances around, "I got a better idea."

Lynelle found herself jammed in between Tessa and Kash as they took kubota down to the camp.

Tessa pulled the farm buggy to a gentle stop as the came to the camp, John walking over to great them. Kash climbed out allowing Lynelle to get out as well.

"Thank you." She smiles as the two

"No worries." Tessa nods, Lynelle earning a tipped hat from Kash, the two teens watch as the two adults talk.

"So, this is where you've been hiding out, huh?" Lynelle asks

"Yeah, well, pretty good spot, huh?" John nods

"Yeah, I can see why you fight so hard for it." She agrees

"Yeah. No one, uh... No one questions it from here." John tells her, "To what do I owe the pleasure? "

"The pleasure, John?" Lynelle asks, "I think you've been in the woods too long.  Where's Kayce?"

John turns around pointing in his direction, Lynelle walking off to go speak with him.

"Yeah.  Um... Tess..." John walks over, "I need you two to run back to the house and grab Jamie."

That's... That's gonna take us a little while." Tessa replies, leaning over Kash to speak to her father

"Yeah. Make sure of it." John orders

"Yes, sir." Kash nods with a chuckle

"Of course, daddy." Tessa adds knowing exactly what he was playing at.

"And our next lot coming in. Six replacement Angus heifers." The auctioneer tells everybody over the microphone. Tessa and Kash sat in the stands with Rip and Lloyd
