11. “The River of Iron” (S2E4)
Hey everyone – Alex and Jerry here, and this week we’re diving deep into 1923, Season 2, Episode 4: The River of Iron. This episode finally gives us a bit of an "upbeat" vibe… well, relatively speaking. From intense moments on the ranch to Spencer’s ongoing saga of chaos and survival, there’s a lot to unpack – and we break it all down.We talk through Alexandra’s brutal run-in (literally), Tiona’s near moment of peace, and Whitfield’s not-so-subtle pitch to bring a ski resort straight into Yellowstone territory. The tension is rising, lines are being drawn, and nobody is safe – especially if your name isn’t Dutton. Oh, and don’t miss the return of the infamous "train station" concept. You know what that means.🔥 Episode Breakdown & Timeline Highlights[1:33] – Initial reactions: “Upbeat” or just slightly less devastating?[5:45] – Alexandra’s brutal attack and her haunting quote: “He took everything.”[13:12] – Tiona’s poster sighting and what it signals for her future[20:09] – Donald Whitfield’s ski resort pitch – a business plan with sinister motives[29:40] – The origin of the train station revealed (and Banner’s brutal initiation)[36:51] – Life on the ranch: trepanation surgery, a rare moment of calm, and family bonds[48:10] – Jacob’s quiet wisdom (and classic Harrison Ford swagger)[56:03] – Spencer’s run-ins (plural) – from corrupt cops to deranged hobos on the train[1:08:20] – Who’s going to reach the Yellowstone first?
