She went to the station.
On Sunday's episode of “Yellowstone,” crooked lawyer Sarah (Dawn Olivieri) is murdered. Sarah was dating Jamie (Wes Bentley).
“I always kind of know it's coming,” Olivieri, 43, said. told the Hollywood Reporterrefers to playing a character who gets killed.
“And reading that is like, 'Okay, let's go.' We got what everyone wanted. I think everyone is happy to have the station,” she added. .
“Station” is a “Yellowstone” technical term that means to kill someone.
“Yellowstone,” which is currently airing its fifth and final season, follows the Dutton family, owners of Montana's largest ranch, including the patriarch John (Kevin Costner), who is also the governor, and his adult son. Drawing the children Casey (Luke Grimes). , Jamie (Wes Bentley), Beth (Kelly Reilly), and Beth's husband Rip (Cole Hauser).
With Costner leaving the show amid rumors of a behind-the-scenes feud, the show returned on November 10 and began the second half of season five by killing John.
A hitman shot John to death and made it look like a suicide. Sarah (Dawn Olivieri) arranged it, so Jamie had some of the responsibility, but he wasn't directly involved.
Now Sarah faces deadly consequences for orchestrating John's death. The episode ends in shocking fashion, with Sarah herself being taken away by the killer, and Jamie listening helplessly on the phone in a panic.
The show has yet to officially announce who took Sara out, but perhaps that will be revealed in a future episode. There are many possibilities. It could have been Beth or Casey, as she is determined to get revenge on her deceased father. It may have been Sarah's hired hitman, picking up loose ends, as Montana State Police announced they were investigating John's death as a homicide. Therefore, their staged suicide did not work.
Or it could be someone else who hasn't been revealed on the show yet.
“The funny thing is, it's your choice. You could have played it differently,” Olivieri said of Sara's final moments.
“I could have played her so hard and cool, and she had to keep it that way.” Something like that. ”
She added that she doesn't necessarily see Sarah as a “villain.”
“A villain is a very strong-willed, strong-willed person who probably had some minor trauma early on in life that creates this kind of obsession with work and power, and who, like the villain, is a very strong-willed person. You may even have a conscious mind.'' Thinking like that makes you the bad guy. ”
He added, “The villain is just a very strong human being, and that's very unpleasant for most people.”
Olivieri, who also starred in the “Yellowstone'' spinoff “1883,'' said, “When you create those types of character arcs, you always start from a stronger place than you end.'' The evolution of the character, from that ending, will always come back to what makes you human. That's the most interesting journey.”
She continued, “It's not fun to watch someone who had all the power and was the best at everything die. It's like, 'Great, bye.' You don't care about that person. My goal with any character is that maybe I'm strong-willed and passionate about doing mean things, but at the end I want to see her unravel and fall apart. . ”
Olivieri said that the moment when Sarah died was “the only moment” series creator Taylor Sheridan had written for the character, and that “there's even a chance it could be revealed.” [human part of her]— and I thought, “Let’s give it a try.” No matter how small the capacity, we could get it. So having that moment with Sarah was a goalpost for me. ”
Speaking about Sarah and Jamie's rocky relationship, she said: And Sarah is not okay. she's not right So, to her, power is love, and transactions feel like love. “If you win with me or if you listen to everything I say, you care about me. ”
Olivieri, who was also a member of the SEAL team, added: “I think that's the way she loved her and I think Jamie responded to that.” It turns out he speaks the language too and that's their connection. They could have been an insanely powerful couple and would have been extremely frightening to play against. Because she completed him the way he needed her to. ”
She described Jamie as “weak”.
“He was indecisive. He lacked initiative and strength, and then she showed up and was like, 'I'll give it to you.' I can guide you through it. I'll give you the confidence you need to lead this thing.'' And it's a power couple. ”
“Yellowstone” airs Sundays at 8 p.m. on Paramount.
