Kayce Dutton’s Marshals spinoff featured a blink-and-you-miss-it mention of a deceased character from Yellowstone.
The Sunday, March 8, episode of the CBS series featured a tense conversation between Andrea (Ash Santos) and Kayce (Luke Grimes) where she grilled him about his brother Jamie’s (Wes Bentley) disappearance. Kayce wouldn’t give up any information about what happened to the other member of the Dutton family but the conversation confirmed that the public was still kept in the dark about the events in the Yellowstone series finale.
Jamie was originally introduced when the OG show premiered on Paramount Network in 2018. He was John Dutton’s (Kevin Costner) adopted son, which led to a complex relationship between the pair. Jamie was ultimately responsible for his father’s death earlier in the season — and that caused John’s daughter Beth (Kelly Reilly) to want to seek revenge on her brother.
In the series finale, which aired in December 2024, Beth waited for Jamie at his home following John’s funeral. She attacked her brother with bear spray and they got into a violent altercation before Beth let him know that she sold the Dutton Ranch for $1.1 million to the reservation.

Beth’s husband, Rip (Cole Hauser), arrived and got Jamie off of Beth — only for her to stab her brother to death. Rip then took Jamie’s body to the train station to hide the evidence as the hit series came to an end.
Executive producer Christina Alexandra Voros later broke down the details about what went into choreographing the fight scene.
“Obviously there are places where you will put in their doubles, who have also been with us from the beginning,” Voros told Variety that same month. “They’ve learned the way the actors move and have been studying that so you do have that element for places where you want to pull the pad out and someone has to hit the ground and Kelly has 12 more days of shooting and nothing can happen to her. But Kelly and Wes did the majority of that fight themselves.”
CBS’ Marshals spinoff picks up after the Yellowstone series finale — but where did every member of the Dutton family end up? The Paramount Network series wrapped up in December 2024 after five seasons with Beth (Kelly Reilly) avenging father John’s (Kevin Costner) death by killing brother Jamie (Wes Bentley).

Voros continued: “Even if they are not taking a punch or throwing one, the energy it takes to keep in that space emotionally is exhausting. So I think what people don’t realize when they see that fight is yes, it looks real and bloody and gruesome, but just staying in that mindset of being this ferocious takes a great deal from the actors to stay in the headspace.”
At the time, Voros applauded Reilly, 48, and Bentley, 47, for their commitment to the scene.
“Forget about the milk and the bear spray and the stabbing and all that. That’s the easy part,” she said. “My kudos to Kelly and Wes for being able to keep in that extreme state of war emotionally throughout that scene.”
Marshals airs on CBS Sundays at 8 p.m. ET.
