“That scene is beyond disturbing”: Even Taylor Sheridan Cannot Defend 1 Controversial Yellowstone Scene Featuring Kelsey Asbille That Should Have Been Skipped Altogether

Yellowstone is the sweeping landscape of the Dutton family ranch, which is often eclipsed by the actions of its larger-than-life characters & the intense (behind-the-scenes) drama that unfolds. But amid the relentless tension and tough exterior of ranch life, isn’t it the quieter scenes that often spark the most fiery discussions among fans?
Of course, there was one such moment—a bathroom dialogue between Monica (Kelsey Asbille) and her son Tate (Brecken Merrill)—that perhaps even Taylor Sheridan couldn’t defend. This event from season 4 stands out not for its explosive action, but for its controversial subtlety.
