Yellowstone Season 5 Episode 12 airs on Sunday, December 1, 2024. The twelfth episode of Yellowstone Season 5 is titled "Counting Coup" and serves as the road leading up to the finale of the long-running popular show.

Unless a possible sixth season is there across the horizon, fans of Yellowstone can watch their favorite show for three more episodes as the story of the Dutton family nears its end. Similar to the show's previous episodes, the twelfth episode will air at 8.00 pm ET and will be approximately an hour long.

The fifth season of Yellowstone has been split into two parts, with the first aired on Paramount in late 2022 through to early 2023. The second part started airing in November this year and has already killed quite a few of its favorite characters. The fifth season sees the family patriarch, John Dutton, becoming the state's governor and consolidating power before meeting his tragic end.

"Counting Coup" is expected to subsequently take up the sibling rivalry between Kelly, Jamie, and Kayce, who are now dealing with their father's death in their own ways. Here's everything we know.


What to expect from Yellowstone Season 5 Episode 12?

The twelfth episode of Yellowstone season 5 can be expected to go in several ways. As the eleventh episode established further details and provided an explanation about John Dutton's death, the siblings at the Dutton range might be seen dealing with the consequences of their father's death.

This might pit them against each other as all three of them, including Kayce, Jamie, and Beth, strive to establish their supremacy.

We should also keep in mind that the relationship between Jamie and Beth has never been exactly smooth sailing. Therefore, it wouldn't be long before things could go downhill again. All in all, it can be expected that the show will tie up the remaining loose ends before jumping to its penultimate and ultimate episodes.


How to watch Yellowstone season 5 episode 12?

Like all the other episodes of the Paramount show, viewers can watch "Counting Coup" by tuning into the Paramount network on their televisions at 8.00 pm ET on December 1. For those without access to the television channel, the episode can also be watched through a live stream of the channel to direct-to-TV platforms such as Philo, SlingTV, FuboTV, or DirecTV Stream. Among these platforms, Philo and FuboTV offer free trials for eligible subscriptions.

There's no cause for concern if someone misses the episode since they can stream on Peacock. Fans of the show must keep in mind that although the Taylor Sheridan show will eventually be available on Peacock, it won't happen overnight following the episode's original airing and might take some time, including up to several months.


What happened on Yellowstone season 5 episode 11?

Season 5 Episode 11 was titled "Three Fifty-Three" and gave away significant details about John Dutton's death. It was revealed in the episode that the hit on John's life was carried out by a group of black ops mercenaries who initially thought themselves to be successful and untraceable.

On the other hand, Kayce, Jamie, and Beth contended that they were deciding on the best course of action to save their ranch now that John was out of the picture.
