Neal McDonough: Malcolm Beck

Quotes 

• Malcolm Beck : Don't you want to have your lawyer present?

  John Dutton : This don't feel like a lawyer meeting.

  Teal Beck : I saw your son go against Peabody Coal before the Senate. He's one hell of a litigator.

  John Dutton : Yeah, he can argue with the best of them. So, what's this problem?

  Malcolm Beck : A casino in this valley will have a negative affect on our business. Your ranch and the others.

  Teal Beck : In five years, how many ranches like this can afford to exist?

  Malcolm Beck : Wanna hear our guess. Soon as that casino opens, they'll approach the Forest Service for land lease. And they'll build a ski resort.

  Teal Beck : And you know as well as anyone, ski resorts are daggers to the heart for places like this.

  Malcolm Beck : It'll be an ocean of second homes in ten years.

  John Dutton : I'm aware.

  Malcolm Beck : I'm sure you are. Look, my office has no authority over an Indian casino.

  Teal Beck : And yours has no authority over the land. And your new AG can't restrict them. That's why we need to fight this outside the lines, Mr. Dutton. And we just don't think they got the stomach for that.

  John Dutton : Yeah, well they have the stomach for it. I don't need partners, fellas.

  Teal Beck : Dan Jenkins has a partner. A big one.

  Malcolm Beck : Think of us as allies. We'd be the perfect allies for each other, John. Because there is no part of your business that benefits ours. And vice versa.

  Teal Beck : And when we fight, it's a zero-sum game. We will win. At any cost.

  John Dutton : Yeah.

  Malcolm Beck : John... we just want you to consider it.

  John Dutton : I consider every option, Malcolm. And I choose the one that's best for my family. If it helps you, it's a coincidence.

  Rip Wheeler : That's not the way you wear one of those.

  Jamie Dutton : Working with them is a deal with the devil, Dad.

  John Dutton : All the angels are gone, son. There's only devils left.

• News Reporter : In an historic ground-breaking ceremony, Tribal Chairman Thomas Rainwater annexed the land purchased for the Confederated Tribes of Broken Rock's ambitious hotel & casino project into the reservation. There are now questions about what, if any, authority the state will have over regulating the casino or monitoring the construction of what will be the largest hotel in the state.

  Malcolm Beck : Who's the contractor on this build?

  Teal Beck : I'll find out.

  Malcolm Beck : I thought we were pretty fucking clear with Mr. Jenkins.

  Teal Beck : Well evidently not.

  Malcolm Beck : We need to find a less subtle means of expressing our displeasure.

  Teal Beck : Can we bait that trap? I think it's time we spring it.

• News Reporter #2 : According to the livestock commissioner, sheriff's deputies refused a request to support the livestock agents as they investigated false claims of cattle depredation at convicted felon Jerry Hayes's ranch, just east of Three Forks. Whatever administrative lapses occurred, the result is one man in custody and his teenage boy, dead.

  Malcolm Beck : I know how we can help John Dutton.
