Short filmTranscript
00:00I am just so blessed to have four boys that all are actively involved in the family ranch.
00:15Stephen! What are you doing? Come on!
00:18Stephen thinks he can run the farm better than me.
00:20I should have stayed in the office.
00:21Someday one of the boys is going to have to take over the farm.
00:24I'm just not sure who that's going to be.
00:26We just need those main things and finalize the financials.
00:31I just don't even know where we would be without Galena.
00:34We would certainly not be working on a $105 million loan.
00:38I can spoil you and give you a massage and make you just feel good.
00:43Yeah, yeah.
00:45You look great. You look fantastic.
00:48I'm ready to party.
00:48I like how you are.
00:49Is this my vehicle?
00:51Who the fuck tore it on my car?
00:53Your dad's side chick, Rick.
00:55His main chick's car.
00:57Only Steve McVeigh.
00:58Out of every vehicle we have here, though, it had to be that one.
01:01When the devil calls...
01:04I made a split-septive decision.
01:07You take care of your four.
01:09I'm not putting up with that.
01:11It's her or I.
01:13There is no other way.
01:14It's her or I.
01:15Well, you used your ultimatum off.
01:18I know that she probably has a grip hold on you right now.
01:21Obviously, Steve, we're not going to be able to see each other anymore.
01:25Well, we might have someone ready to turn off the lights.
01:29When the devil calls...
01:32Keep coming.
01:43Right there.
01:44That'll work.
01:47Create an alleyway.
01:48Block this off.
01:51Hey, we need to get the bison from this pasture over there to that corral.
01:55Oh, they got a little gape?
01:56Oh, yeah.
01:57Come on, muscles.
01:58Let me help you.
01:59Don't hurt your back there, big guy.
02:01I don't need no help, bitch.
02:02That thing's heavy, ain't it?
02:03It's a little heavier than I thought.
02:05Cole, you're going to stand right here behind this thing.
02:07I just hold it.
02:07I am.
02:08Me and Jesse are right here.
02:13Currently, we have 52 bison here on the farm.
02:15For me specifically, I want to get our herd above 300 so we can start butchering some of
02:21these animals, selling a lot of the meat, selling the skins, selling the skulls.
02:26Don't let them see you and make sure everyone's out.
02:28Here it goes.
02:31There may be buffalo all over the street.
02:35Cole, I'd scoot back a little.
02:36Yeah, that gap there.
02:37Let's get the first ones through.
02:38Oh, shit.
02:39Oh, shit.
02:41To me, the bison is where we are going to make our money.
02:45There are so many people that want the lean meat from the bison.
02:48I just have to get our herd to the size we need it to be.
02:55Oh, yeah.
02:55Oh, shit.
02:56Jesus.
02:56Holy fuck, man.
02:59Oh, yeah.
03:01Is that all of them?
03:01Oh.
03:02Yeah.
03:03Oh, God.
03:03Oh, God.
03:06See, Steve's about to shoot his pants.
03:08I did.
03:08All I do is play your way, playing anything and anyone that's in my way.
03:26You just could, but I'm so great.
03:28Do whatever it takes.
03:29All I do is play your way, playing anything and anyone that's in my way.
03:34You just could, but I'm so great.
03:36What up?
03:37Hello.
03:38How was your flight?
03:39Not too bad.
03:40You smell so good.
03:41Do I?
03:42Yeah.
03:42Thanks.
03:44I see that Steven let you take the G.
03:46Love that for us.
03:48I know.
03:48I called Cole today.
03:49I was like, will you ask Steven if I can take it shopping next week?
03:53I was like, you want to take it shopping?
03:55I'm like, yeah.
03:56You're like, yeah, duh.
03:56Yeah.
03:58I'm so glad to have you back.
04:00Are you?
04:00Yeah.
04:01Did you miss me?
04:01I did.
04:02Please tell me I'm your favorite.
04:04You are.
04:05Steven and I have been great lately.
04:09And so we both decided it would be good for me to spend a little bit more time up here
04:14at the farm so we can have more time together.
04:16It's just different when you're around.
04:18Yeah.
04:19I'm happy to be back.
04:19Cole says you're like the bad influence on me.
04:22And then like Allie's the good influence.
04:24I'm the bad influence?
04:25I mean, I kind of am.
04:27I'm not as tame.
04:28I'm like the devil on your shoulder.
04:30Both the Allie's and Casey I've gone along with really well and we always have fun when
04:35we're together.
04:35How are you and Cole?
04:37I feel like we've been together almost five years and like we have rocky stuff in our relationship
04:42but we always go back to each other.
04:44So it's really nice to be super close with the other girlfriends.
04:47Also, I heard about Brooke crashing Galena's car.
04:53The full fucking front of my vehicle is destroyed.
04:57I was just trying to help solve the situation.
04:59I saw the text messages.
05:01We're seeing you crazy.
05:02She's fucking, she was pissed.
05:06I respect Steve in a lot of ways.
05:08I think Steve is like very business minded.
05:11I respect him a shit ton for like starting from nothing and like growing his businesses
05:15into what it is.
05:16But relationship wise, he's not a good influence.
05:20And their dad has a huge influence on them.
05:22Huge influence.
05:24Like don't y'all want like to be married and like have a family?
05:29Like you can do that and still be happy.
05:31I think like from what they've witnessed growing up and then like how their dad is now, it's
05:35like they don't think that they can have both.
05:37This family and the drama, like I can't, it's something new every day.
05:42I really can't keep up.
05:43It's crazy.
05:43I don't need you anymore.
06:01Ta-da, happy Father's Day.
06:05Holy.
06:05Wow.
06:06You like it?
06:07That looks good.
06:08I love lemon.
06:08Thank you so much.
06:10I know you always go above and beyond.
06:11This is the first time I will be spending the entire Father's Day with Steve and all the
06:16boys are coming.
06:17Oh my gosh.
06:20This looks amazing.
06:22So a big day.
06:24I'm very, very excited about it.
06:26This is a pudding, lemon pudding.
06:28Wow.
06:29Because your dad likes lemon stuff.
06:31Ah.
06:32Hmm.
06:32Things have been very awkward since the car wreck.
06:36Again, that was a terrible decision on my behalf.
06:38I, you know, I wish I could take it back, but I can't.
06:41I just got to deal with it and move forward.
06:44I think that, you know, I don't know.
06:48I mean, it's, it's always a challenge to get to that point where everything's right.
06:53We would have cooked for you since it is Father's Day, but we feel like that would, that would
06:59have made you more upset than you cooking yourself.
07:01That's right.
07:01I would rather cook myself and then I get what I want.
07:04You guys want to go sit outside?
07:06Yeah.
07:06We can bring all that stuff outside.
07:08Is Paul coming or no?
07:09Yeah, they're, they should be here any minute.
07:12Okay.
07:14Will you get my sunglasses out of the bathroom on the counter, Galina?
07:20Let's see what kind of temperature I got.
07:22Damn, 400.
07:24What's up?
07:26Oh, what's happening?
07:28Check it out.
07:29Hi.
07:30What up?
07:30I've got the matching pink.
07:32Good, how are you?
07:33Those are some pink shorts, man.
07:35What?
07:36What?
07:37You like them?
07:38You try to match his casey?
07:39This is my first Father's Day with Galina around and not just us.
07:44We can sit in that thingy because it's shady.
07:47I feel weird whenever she's in positions that my mom was usually at.
07:52Those things look so freaking good.
07:56The boys have something special for you.
07:57They want you to come over.
07:59Shotgun a drink!
08:00Shotgun!
08:01Happy Father's Day, Dad!
08:03He's so proud of you guys.
08:04I didn't realize it was that kind of party.
08:06Three, two, one.
08:08I'm sure he's just the proudest dad out there.
08:09From all of us, I went shopping today.
08:14Oh, I'll use that for sure.
08:16Mm-hmm.
08:17Cowboy hat rack.
08:18That's nice.
08:19Four.
08:20A new hat.
08:20Your new hat.
08:21With our brand on it.
08:23Mm-hmm.
08:23And turn it on.
08:25Oh, and my initials.
08:27Oh, cool.
08:29I like it.
08:30It's too big.
08:31No!
08:32I'm usually seven and three-eighths, but...
08:34He has a big head.
08:35That's convenient.
08:36It just happens to fit me perfectly.
08:38Wow.
08:38I can see.
08:39And your initials are...
08:40Wow.
08:41Are you serious?
08:42I didn't mean to.
08:45All right.
08:46Obviously, I think that one of the things that means the most to all of us boys is that
08:53you have supported us in any idea we've ever had, any business we've ever had.
08:57And you tell us that we can take on any single thing in life.
09:00As kids, you sacrificed your time for us and went to every single practice, every single
09:06week for all four of us.
09:07And I don't even want to know how many hours that added up to.
09:10You would always get down and get dirty, no matter what it is, and work harder than anybody
09:14there.
09:14I don't think there's anybody out there that has had as good an example as we do for work
09:20ethic.
09:21Yeah.
09:21Well, thank you.
09:22You know, being a father is probably the most rewarding experience in life.
09:27Those are my children.
09:29I created those children.
09:30So it's my job to make sure that I take care of them, protect them.
09:37I just want to prevent them from making the same mistakes that I've made, as I think every
09:41parent does for their child.
09:43You know I love you guys.
09:45I love you too.
09:46I love you.
09:46I spent an overwhelming amount of time with the older three, Stephen, Jesse, and Cole.
09:55I love you.
09:55Yep.
09:56I love you, bud.
09:56When they would come to the farm every weekend, Brayden wouldn't come a lot because he was
10:01so much younger.
10:02So I would say that it definitely is a complicated situation.
10:06I love you.
10:06I love you.
10:07I love my dad, but I grew up with my mom.
10:10I was with my mom full time.
10:11I never came up to the farm to work up here.
10:14I never wanted to work up here full time at all.
10:16I kind of didn't necessarily have like a fallout with my dad.
10:20I just wasn't quite as close with him.
10:23Do we want to eat out here?
10:24Yes.
10:25I think we eat out here.
10:25It's nice.
10:33Got a medium or medium rare?
10:35Medium.
10:35Okay.
10:39Get down.
10:39Very good.
10:44I like it.
10:45It's a good steak.
10:47Stephen, talk to you about the Montana trip.
10:49We're going to where we got the bison the first time.
10:51Uh-huh.
10:52And we're going to fish on the river that night right there in the Yellowstone National
10:55Park on the reservation.
10:56It's going to be a pretty crazy deal.
10:58It does sound pretty cool.
11:00One of them once-in-a-lifetime type deals.
11:02My dad loves all of us boys, and I know that my dad wants a better relationship with Bray,
11:09and he talks about it all the time.
11:10But there are some times where it's pretty strained.
11:13What's your schedule like?
11:14Can you be able to get off of that?
11:17Um, I don't know if I plan on going.
11:20I might.
11:21Okay.
11:22I never wanted the boys to have to deal with a divorced family, and I never wanted to fail
11:30the family, and I never wanted a broken family.
11:34But you've got to make good decisions for that to happen, and obviously I didn't make,
11:38you know, all the right decisions.
11:41All right, Tim.
11:43Love.
11:46I'm going to keep on going hard until it's all mine.
11:49I'm the GOAT, I'm the GOAT, I'm the GOAT, I'm the GOAT, I'm the GOAT.
11:58I'm the GOAT.
12:00I'm the GOAT.
12:01Girls for the girls.
12:04I'm the GOAT.
12:04Greatest of all time.
12:06What up?
12:07What's up, dude?
12:07What's up?
12:08Whoa, we already got a sweat going.
12:10I've already been killing it.
12:11How long have you been over here?
12:13Where's Casey at?
12:14Uh, work.
12:15How have things been?
12:17We've been getting a lot more serious here in the last week or two.
12:20You have?
12:21We have been.
12:22We've been doing good.
12:23So, what happened in Fort Worth then?
12:26There's coal.
12:28Oh, snap.
12:30Things change quickly around here.
12:32What is that supposed to mean?
12:33I'm referring to, like, crops and sometimes relationships.
12:37You can go from really good to really bad.
12:39It's true.
12:39It's true.
12:46Where's Casey at?
12:49Uh, work.
12:51How have things been?
12:52We've been getting a lot more serious here the last week or two.
12:56Wow.
12:56Look at that.
12:57I'm impressed.
12:58You seem to be jealous.
13:00Jealous.
13:01Happy.
13:02I think it's a little hot.
13:03I've been doing good.
13:04So, what happened in Fort Worth then?
13:08Probably should have been a hair better, but I'm pretty proud of myself for the decision
13:11I was able to make while I'm completely blacked out.
13:13Because you didn't go home with her?
13:17I can't say no.
13:19No, you can't.
13:19I can't.
13:20You can't.
13:21You can't say no.
13:22Just go.
13:23Just go.
13:23Just go.
13:24Just go.
13:25I honestly don't think there's a person in this world who would have said no and not
13:27left and went home by themselves completely blacked out like that.
13:30There better be one.
13:30I feel like I'm not getting any props for that, and it kind of bothers me.
13:33For not sleeping with a girl, what do you want?
13:35A round of applause?
13:36I would like one because I'm getting screamed at for meeting a girl at a bar.
13:39Here's what I think, honestly.
13:41Casey's about one of the only women that can put up with coal when it comes to hunting,
13:47farming, and I think that's what coal needs.
13:49Everything that coal is, Casey is as well.
13:53Like, y'all are so similar.
13:54I do agree with that a lot.
13:56It's going in the right direction to become more serious.
13:59Just knowing Casey and how things have gone in the past, I think there's a timeline on
14:03it where that window's about to close, and whether it's you or someone else, she's going
14:08to end up with someone.
14:09Lock it down.
14:11Our old man told me, son, it's in our veins.
14:19Said you were born around midnight, and you ain't ever going to change.
14:27It's a 22-hour drive up there.
14:29Make sure you guys switch out when you get tired.
14:31We've got a 22-hour haul ahead of us to get out to Montana, to get to the Flathead Reservation,
14:38and start corralling our herd of bison that we're bringing back home to the farm.
14:42Let's head out.
14:43All right, let's do it.
14:44There is not much signal once we get out there.
14:54Have you guys warned the girls?
14:55I thought that would probably be best.
14:57What's up, wait?
14:58What?
14:58What?
14:58Seven-year-old, like, hey, by the way, I'm not right.
15:01By the way, no, sir.
15:01I love you, bye.
15:02Bye.
15:02Bye.
15:02Have you told Casey that, Cole?
15:05Yeah, I've told you that, Cole.
15:07He's going to be scarce.
15:09I can't tell.
15:11How did they handle that or they get the deal going?
15:15No issues?
15:18Have you told Gallup?
15:20Yeah, I told her.
15:21I told her I think that she's going to play in something with the girls this weekend.
15:25I don't know what.
15:32I can barely hit my eyes.
15:43Sure would be nice to get up every morning and look at those.
15:46Man, look at this.
15:49We made it, boys.
15:50We're here, dude.
15:56Boy, you are out here in no man's land, though.
15:59My first impression is the views.
16:03The river, the mountains, I've never seen anything like it,
16:05and we definitely do not have these views in Missouri.
16:09Look at this.
16:11Dude, this is so cool.
16:2022 hours in a car.
16:23What's going on?
16:24How are you?
16:25Yeah.
16:26Cody?
16:26Yes, sir.
16:27Awesome, man.
16:28I'm Stephen McVie.
16:28Good to meet you.
16:29Good to meet you, brother.
16:30This is quite the setup.
16:31Yeah?
16:31This is awesome.
16:31How's it going, man?
16:32I'm Jesse.
16:32Good to meet you, Jesse.
16:33What's up, man?
16:34Cole.
16:34Cole, good to meet you.
16:35Nice to meet you.
16:35Steve, good to meet you, man.
16:37Cody is part owner of Branded Bison, born and raised in that area,
16:42and is very connected to the Flathead Indian Reservation
16:45and all of the tribal people there.
16:47Well, this is your digs right here, boys.
16:49Check it out.
16:49Yeah, this is pretty awesome.
16:51This thing's way bigger than I thought it would be.
16:53Holy cow.
16:5430-foot diameter in here.
16:55That's awesome.
16:56That's cool.
16:57And then when the sun goes down, man, we got the purple majesty.
17:00Because the sunset's amazing, but the Mission Mountains,
17:02man, they turn purple.
17:03Really?
17:04Yeah, right before the ice.
17:05Beautiful.
17:05That's what I like to do here.
17:06Let's go.
17:08Well, let's get you guys' stuff.
17:10Yeah.
17:10Get some dinner going and stretch the legs a little bit.
17:13You want to go check out the view from above?
17:14Yeah.
17:16It's freaking beautiful out here.
17:18I love Montana.
17:20Those mountains are already starting to turn purple.
17:22Yeah, don't get much better than that.
17:24Yeah.
17:25It's freaking gorgeous.
17:29All right.
17:30I'll follow your lead.
17:31All right.
17:32All right.
17:33You got me to add here?
17:34Probably kelp about it.
17:35I guess.
17:36Perhaps to.
17:37Yeah, you want me to do the grilling or you got it?
17:48Whatever.
17:49Some change is lead up to a man.
17:51I would definitely say that we spend more time than the average, like, father, son, and
17:55brothers do together.
17:57You know, we go on a lot of trips together.
17:59We are very big into being with our family.
18:02Like, my brothers are my best friend.
18:06Don't mess me.
18:08No, you didn't.
18:08I am.
18:09I would have met you.
18:10You tripped.
18:10No, I did not.
18:11I knew what I was.
18:12I want to go up there.
18:16Hey, sorry.
18:17I just walked to the top of the hill.
18:18I have zero signal.
18:20Here's what I came up here to show you.
18:21We're literally going to be riding our horses, catching buffalo all through this.
18:25I've never even seen the mountains before.
18:27The big mountains are over here.
18:28You can see the tops of them.
18:30Yeah, I see it.
18:31I've never seen anything like it in my life.
18:33Pretty cool, ain't it?
18:34I can't believe it's daylight there.
18:36And it's light.
18:37It's like 10, 30, 11 o'clock.
18:39Why?
18:39Days get way longer during the summer.
18:41But then they get way shorter during the winter.
18:43That's crazy.
18:44That's your teepee?
18:46Yeah.
18:47These are like, they said it's how it would have been done however many years ago, you
18:51know, whenever these are the only thing that they lived out of, like the exact
18:54same way.
18:56Kind of cool.
18:56Yeah, that is cool.
18:58Did you know that Calo is moving here for the entire month of July?
19:01No, but I'm glad I can say that now when I go back down here.
19:05Thanks for telling me that.
19:06All right.
19:07Well, I got to have it down there.
19:07Have a good night.
19:08Love you.
19:09Okay.
19:10Cole is just like the most genuine guy.
19:12And he has like this soft little teddy bear side to him that like some people see, but
19:17not a lot.
19:18He's always telling me like, I love you and all this other sweet stuff.
19:22Boy, did I ask you some news?
19:25What happened?
19:26I don't know.
19:26You tell us.
19:28I don't know.
19:28What did I do?
19:29You didn't do anything, but is there anything coming up here in the next month or a couple
19:32weeks that's going on?
19:33Nobody's moving anywhere or moving in with anybody or?
19:38No.
19:39Moving up from Texas?
19:44Whenever Cole's got news to share, especially if it involves me and he knows it's going to
19:48make my dad mad, that boy cannot keep his mouth shut and he will be the first one to
19:53rat me out on anything.
19:55She's staying for three weeks.
19:57You weren't going to tell anybody?
19:59You won't even know she's here.
20:02God damn it.
20:03So my biggest fear for Steven with Kala is that Kala controls Steven in a just overbearing
20:14way.
20:14Every red flag is there.
20:17Like if I tried to call you at four or five at night, she don't let you take a phone call.
20:21You can't be a business owner and not take fucking phone calls in the evening.
20:26I agree.
20:27And I don't know why or how that dynamic has gotten so lopsided in their relationship.
20:33But she controls him like nothing I've ever seen.
20:38Anybody want to take bets right now unless she moves back in three weeks?
20:40No, she is.
20:41For real.
20:41I just want that girl straight up.
20:58No chaser.
20:59This place is packed.
21:10I love this.
21:11I love this.
21:13Yeah, this is nice.
21:14Best seat in the house.
21:15Can I just start with something to drink?
21:18I will do a Tito's soda with lime.
21:22Can I just do it like a Moscow meal?
21:24Can I get these spicy strawberry margaritas?
21:28Spicy strawberry, of course.
21:30I'll be right back with those for you guys.
21:34I'm so happy the sun is down.
21:36I would be dying right now.
21:37It was so hot today.
21:39All right, here are those drinks for y'all.
21:42Callie, you need to tell Casey about what you had to text me the other day.
21:45Because she texted me during the day, asked to use our vacuum, and I was like, oh, no.
21:50Please tell me you are not cleaning Steven's house.
21:52Like, I know it's going to be a disaster.
21:53Like, no, I'm doing it voluntarily.
21:55It would be nice to walk around barefoot and not get a dead bug on me or black feet.
22:01It was so disgusting.
22:02His house, it was so bad.
22:09I have to ask you guys, does Steve call Jesse and Cole?
22:15Daily.
22:16I would say he calls them daily.
22:18Steve calls Steven 30 to 50 times a day.
22:23I'm like, that's a lot.
22:26It's a lot.
22:27It's gotten to the point now, it's like, if we go out, I'm like, I don't answer any calls.
22:31Yeah.
22:32Like, this is me and you time.
22:33You have to really set, like, those guidelines for the guys.
22:36I think every single one of them, because if you don't, like, you will never have time for yourself.
22:40It's like, similar about us.
22:41Like, we're very strong-willed, and they need that so badly.
22:46That's why he needs to be more grateful for me.
22:49I agree.
22:49They all need to be more grateful for their women.
22:52Who do you think is the influence on this?
22:56Steve.
22:57Hey, I called him out the other day.
22:58I was like, why are you telling all your kids not to get married?
23:00I've been with him 10 and a half years, and you're telling your son not to get married to me.
23:03Dude.
23:03Like, what the fuck?
23:03Steve is constantly instilling in his boys, don't get married, don't get married, you're going to ruin your life.
23:09I mean, marriage, like, what, the first marriage is like a 60% failure rate.
23:13I will never get married again.
23:15I served my business.
23:16I'm out.
23:18I was married for 28 years.
23:19They want your power.
23:20I don't want no one else's power.
23:22Just because his marriage didn't work out doesn't mean that his son's marriages aren't going to work out.
23:26I think that's kind of a slap on our face, and I have told him this.
23:30I really do feel like there's, like, a deep fear in him.
23:34A hundred percent.
23:35They're literally his best friends.
23:36Like, if they're not there, what's he going to do?
23:38Yeah.
23:39Exactly.
23:39Obviously, we've been with the boys for years now.
23:42It's like, there's something there.
23:44Like, we love each other.
23:45He's an example to them, too.
23:46Like, I'm...
23:47He is.
23:47He's a huge example to them.
23:49And the way he acts right now.
23:50And the boys even know it's wrong, and they're like, oh, why is my dad doing this?
23:55If he's not going to break up with Galena, then he has no right to talk shit on anyone's relationship.
23:59No, not at all.
24:00I feel like we have never gotten together like this and actually had a deep conversation about our relationship.
24:06So, it's really, really nice to see that the other girls feel the same way,
24:11and that all of the guys kind of have some similarities between them when it comes to relationships.
24:17Should we take a shot?
24:19We should.
24:19On his...
24:20Tap.
24:21I have his...
24:22I have his credit card.
24:23Yeah.
24:24Or he can give you Kohl's.
24:25I have Kohl's, too.
24:26But he may get declined.
24:28You never know.
24:30No.
24:30Stop.
24:30Kohl's been making good money lately.
24:32Yeah, he has.
24:33Because he literally put emergency money in his nightstand for me.
24:38He said, this is in case there's an emergency and you need it.
24:40Why are all the guys like that?
24:42That's what Kohl does, yeah.
24:43Stephen will send me $10,000.
24:45Yeah.
24:45Stephen will send me $10,000.
24:48Oh.
24:50Okay.
24:51$20,000.
24:52$20,000?
24:56Are you kidding me?
24:57I was just bragging on Kohl for sending me, like, $200 sometimes, $100.
25:03What?
25:04What am I...
25:05I'm lacking in this deal here.
25:07Kohl needs to get a better job.
25:09So to find out that Kala is getting sent $20,000, like, that is literally insane.
25:18You all better don't fucking repeat that.
25:20Please don't.
25:21No, no, no, no.
25:22I need to tell Jesse to step up his game.
25:33What's happening, fellas?
25:35It's about 15 minutes.
25:36We'll be eating some ribeye.
25:38Oh, man.
25:39You guys do it right, man.
25:41Oh, yeah.
25:41Wow.
25:42That's how Stephen McBee.
25:43Stephen, nice to meet you.
25:44Nice to meet you as well.
25:45Nice to meet you.
25:46Oh, look at this.
25:47You guys are making your dad do all the cooking?
25:50No, he doesn't really have to do it.
25:52He'd be taking it out of your hand.
25:54Yeah.
25:55There's a right way to do everything.
25:56You know what I'm saying?
25:59Everybody gets their own steak, and here's the potatoes.
26:02There's some napkin for you, sir.
26:03I don't think.
26:04I know last year, whenever you guys got to come down to Red Barn and stay the night there,
26:08we feel like we have a pretty nice setup.
26:10We're pretty proud of it.
26:11And then you bring us out here and totally put ours to shame with the views and the hospitality.
26:17And every single thing about it has been unbelievable.
26:21I just kind of get over it.
26:23We're literally going to be riding our horses, catching buffalo all through this.
26:28Yeah, these guys, they're ranchers just like you guys, you know?
26:32But the Indians here are hunters and gatherers, you know?
26:36Right.
26:36Agriculture was kind of introduced to us in the last hundred years.
26:40But my grandpa, he was a racehorse man.
26:44So was my great grandpa.
26:45We rode bareback a lot, you know?
26:48And that was just fun to us, you know?
26:50I learned to ride bareback before I could ride.
26:53My dad wouldn't allow me to be on a saddle.
26:55Really?
26:56No, I had to learn to ride bareback.
26:58Yeah, I rarely had a saddle, too, when I was growing up.
27:01My grandma used to make Indian saddles.
27:03And those are pretty cool, but we never used them, you know?
27:08I always say they did all that Indian stuff, you know?
27:10Our grandma was half Cherokee.
27:15Did you guys get to know her?
27:16Oh, we knew her good.
27:17Yeah, we stayed every summer.
27:18Every summer, we spent the whole summer at her house.
27:20Did she talk Indian?
27:22No.
27:22No?
27:23We do our best, you know?
27:24We're trying to teach our young people these things, you know?
27:28Because so much is lost.
27:30So much has died out.
27:31My parents both spoke fluent Salish, and they chose not to teach us as their kids, because
27:41when they went to the government schools, they were punished if they spoke the native
27:47tongue.
27:48So they said, I'm not putting our kids through this.
27:52So they didn't teach us.
27:53Yeah.
27:54But our language is hard, you know?
27:56Like, for example, the way you say horse, so if I was to say, go get your horse, go
28:09get your horse.
28:10Wow.
28:11If you really were fluent.
28:13No.
28:14No.
28:15No.
28:15No.
28:17Well, I know that we appreciate it more than we can even put into words how much this has
28:23meant to us, just coming out here, being able to check out everything and listen to
28:26Zan and Cody, Mr. George, and yourself.
28:29I mean, it has been truly an experience of a lifetime.
28:32It's life-changing for us.
28:34Yeah.
28:35It is.
28:35And don't forget to pray, too, you know?
28:37Indians are always praying, you know?
28:39We use the word sacred, and it's kind of a taboo word now, but everything is sacred,
28:46you know?
28:47We take care of it.
28:48I really admire everybody that's living on the reservation, their tenacity, their willingness
28:54to help each other out, and just their determination to keep this way of life going.
28:59They're out there doing it, doing the thing, keeping it alive, keeping the traditions alive,
29:04and it's impressive.
29:06Before we go, I'm going to share a song with you guys, okay?
29:09And this song is to just simply honor you guys.
29:12Ha-ya-we-yo, ha-ya-yo, ha-ya-yo, ha-ya-yo, ha-ya-yo, ha-ya-yo, ma, that's it.
29:40It's awesome.
29:40Yeah, thank you.
29:41I say this in a lot of meetings and to my boys the whole time they grow up.
29:46People may not remember your name.
29:48They may not remember what you said or did, but they never forget how you made them feel.
29:53And that's hospitality.
29:54You guys made us feel very welcome, so really appreciate it.
29:57Yeah, I like you so much.
29:59Can you text that to my wife?
30:03We can always use some extra points.
30:05Oh, am I crying right now?
30:10You're missing Casey.
30:13I was going to say, it's not the smoke.
30:18Shoot, we're going to have some work cut out for us tomorrow.
30:20Wow.
30:26Wow.
30:26Wow.
30:56Look at that.
31:02Look at the horizon.
31:04See that deer?
31:06Morning.
31:08Morning.
31:10I don't know.
31:12My phone don't work. It just died.
31:14Cooking breakfast over an open fire,
31:16looking at the mountains, breathing in that fresh, crisp mountain air.
31:20It's who we really are.
31:22It's what we grew up doing with my dad.
31:24It's always been in our blood and it will always be in our blood.
31:30I think Xana said the cowboys will be here about 8, 8.30 to start working the buffalo.
31:34It's going to be some up and down hill.
31:36How in the world are we going to find 100 bison in 3,500 acres?
31:42This right here is going to be a lot different than what we're used to on the farm.
31:48We've got some, I would call them hills in Missouri.
31:52It's not really anything like what's out here in the West.
31:54So trying to herd these bison through these mountains and the terrain and all the valleys and rocks and basically everything that the West has to throw at you.
32:04It's going to be a challenge.
32:063,500 acres is not a small piece of ground.
32:08This is truly going to separate the men from the boys.
32:12Good thing we've got the real cowboys showing up.
32:14We just rolled out of bed.
32:16What?
32:18He didn't want to get up this morning.
32:20How you feeling with that?
32:21Call you baby Casey, bro.
32:22I know.
32:23My brother Jesse might look like Casey Dutton, but Zanon, he's true Casey Dutton.
32:28He is a cowboy in every sense of the word.
32:31All right.
32:32So just a quick rundown of the plan, how you guys are going to do this and go about it.
32:35You guys are going to go up through here over this ridge all the way down to the beach on the river.
32:40Yeah.
32:41The Buffalo side of it now, I just know that they're down at the south end.
32:44Mm-hmm.
32:45So I don't know.
32:46They're going to be in some breaks and some sage.
32:47If you find them, don't think you can ride straight to them.
32:50Yeah.
32:51You're going to have to peel back out and watch those ravines because you go down in a hole, you won't be able to get back up out of them.
32:56So keep an eye on each other, how you do that.
32:58And once you get them gathered, we'll try to get in touch with everyone so we can make sure the trap is set and everything's ready to go.
33:08All right.
33:09Come in, girl.
33:11That's pretty good.
33:12It's so cool.
33:13It's wild, isn't it?
33:23Beautiful country up here.
33:25It's awesome.
33:26It's cool, isn't it?
33:27It's awesome.
33:41This country is so cool.
33:42It is.
33:43I'm just taking it all in.
33:44The American bison used to roam the Great Plains of North America for thousands of years.
33:54Bison meant everything to American Indians.
33:57They used every single part of a bison when they would harvest it.
34:01They wouldn't leave anything to waste.
34:03And it's something that we share and that we are super passionate about as farmers.
34:08Bison right over there.
34:09Fan out, boys!
34:11Get ready.
34:12Get ready.
34:13Get ready.
34:14Get ready.
34:15Oh, shit.
34:16There you go.
34:17Hey!
34:18There you go.
34:19Here they come.
34:20I got you.
34:21That right here.
34:22Come on, I got you.
34:23There you go!
34:24The buffalo hurting them is not like hurting cows.
34:25I mean, as soon as they see you, their heads are up, they're moving quick.
34:40I mean, there's nothing stopping them.
34:44They are way more athletic than I thought.
34:46Come on, come on, come on, come on.
34:59You did it, buddy.
35:00It was close.
35:01Dude, did you see me, Dad?
35:03My feet crossed.
35:04Oh, boy.
35:05I think that went pretty good.
35:06I don't know if I've never done this one time, but it seemed like it went decent.
35:09Oh, that was the best ride I've been on.
35:11Oh, the best ride?
35:12I was talking about just catching the buffalo.
35:14I don't know.
35:14Oh, yeah.
35:15You guys did an extra job.
35:17No, dude, that buffalo rounded the corner and they go, McBees.
35:22That's the boys right there.
35:24Yeah, so the plan is we're going to sort them three ways, get them prepped, get them fed for the night, and then go get some food.
35:30Let's do this.
35:31Let's get it.
35:32This will be about as easy as herding cats.
35:35We're going to put the pears over here, the bulls over here, and then we're going to put all of our buffalo that we're taking right here in this one tent.
35:42Watch your panel.
35:43They're coming.
35:44I'm looking at these things.
35:45It's kind of running around out there, chasing each other around.
35:47They're eyeing us, and I think this could be a little bit dangerous.
35:51All right, pay attention, because we're bringing these bulls.
35:53We're bringing the bulls up the alley.
35:56Jesse, Cole, watch yourselves.
35:58We're taking them all.
35:59Come on.
35:59Come on.
36:00These are purebred American bison, 100% bison DNA.
36:05These are not beefalo, which is what you get a lot of the times out our way, where they've bred cattle into the bison genetics, so they're a little more calm.
36:14Out here, these bison are wild animals.
36:16So getting them into a corral, it's dangerous as all get-out.
36:20Hey, hey, hey, hey.
36:23They want to be out.
36:27Hey, hey, hey.
36:28Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey.
36:40One more time.
36:41One, two, three.
36:43Pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop.
36:46Hey, guys.
36:47Hey, hey.
36:48Watch out.
36:49Watch out.
36:51Get that, man.
36:51Get that.
36:51Get that.
36:53Get that.
36:55Get that.
36:58Get that.
36:59Get that.
36:59Get that.
37:00Get that.
37:01Get it.
37:01Get that.
37:03Hey, hey.
37:03Come on.
37:04Hey, hey.
37:04We're going to put the pears over here, the bulls over here, and then we're going to put all of our buffalo that we're taking right here in this one pen.
37:08Hey, hey.
37:08Hey.
37:09Watch yourself, watch yourself.
37:25Watch out.
37:26You're gonna trade me out?
37:28Oh no, I'm fine.
37:30Why, do I look scared?
37:32No.
37:33Do I look scared?
37:34Cause I'm scared to death.
37:39Well, we got them all sorted.
37:51Yeah.
37:52We're going to let the other ones that are stressed out settle down.
37:55You guys are going to meet us later at the river.
37:57Yeah.
37:57Thanks for the help and thanks for everything.
37:59Appreciate it.
37:59What did you guys play in football?
38:01Running back.
38:02Yeah, me too.
38:02Yeah.
38:02You're good then.
38:03Yeah.
38:04I thought you survived, bro.
38:05It's been a while.
38:06We got them.
38:07I'm going to go jump in the river.
38:09I feel like a dust ball.
38:11I'm going to take a towel and shampoo down to the river.
38:14My hat doesn't even look dark brown anymore.
38:16Oh, boy.
38:18Good job out there.
38:19You're only a man up.
38:23Bitch, there.
38:25Okay.
38:26What happened to the shampoo?
38:27Did he have it?
38:28We got it.
38:28We're good.
38:30Feel three in one.
38:31Does it all.
38:34Oh, man.
38:35Oh, my.
38:37All of us are sweating.
38:38We all have a little bit of swamp ass.
38:40We're all stinky and smelly.
38:42We're more than ready to jump in this river and get cleaned off for the night.
38:45It looks cold.
38:48Oh, my.
38:48The river is cold, I'm not going to lie, but it's pretty cool to be out here swimming in this river and taking a shower, you know, out in the mountains in Montana with my family.
39:10But with my family, that sounds kind of weird, taking a shower with my family.
39:15We weren't naked, I mean.
39:19It was the rocks that would hurt me.
39:22Nobody helps the elder.
39:24Waiting for a grizzly to come out over there looking for its next meal.
39:27It would have been me because I couldn't have gotten out first.
39:29That's why I got out first.
39:31It's freaking beautiful out here.
39:33I love Montana.
39:36Boy, it'd be cool to have a place out here.
39:40Big country.
39:44Oh, man.
39:45We're going to be up early, too.
39:46We're going to be up early, too.
40:1622 hours.
40:2122 hours.
40:22We got it.
40:23No stop till Gallatin.
40:27Once these boys have kids, how often are you going to get to do something like this?
40:34I don't know.
40:35I don't know.
40:36The boys, my biggest fear with the boys has always been the same answer.
40:42What do boys do?
40:44They get with a girl.
40:46And I've seen it already over and over and over and over and over.
40:51And not one of my boys is married.
40:55Just having the girlfriends.
40:57Their biggest fights.
40:59You know, they get along fine.
41:01I'm not saying they don't ever have a dumbass skirmish over something silly.
41:05But, boy, when you get with a girl, it causes rift between them.
41:11The wrong woman in terror.
41:13Oh.
41:14Family's part.
41:15If you fall in love with the wrong woman.
41:16Oh, you're going to destroy your family.
41:18I'm not saying they don't ever have a woman.
41:28If I hit the hill, he might need to go more downhill.
41:28Am I going to be all right?
41:42Is this hill too high?
41:43If I hit the hill, he might need to go more downhill.
41:50That'll work.
41:51Hold on.
41:52Yep, yep.
41:53I don't want nothing getting out here.
41:56All right.
41:57Welcome to the farm, girls.
41:58Everybody ready?
41:59Yeah.
41:59Let them out.
42:17That's awesome.
42:18That was a long trip.
42:1924 hours, pretty much.
42:21Yep.
42:21Look, they already know where the water is.
42:23They can smell it.
42:24Yeah.
42:25What an event of getting these dudes.
42:27Everything we did to get these guys here, huh?
42:30Is that back gate open where they can get to the other one?
42:33Yeah, they're heading out there.
42:36Yep, they're heading out to the faster now.
42:38They see the other ones.
42:39They're going to them.
42:40Look at them.
42:41They do it right to them.
42:42Straight down there.
42:43Hell, they may know some of them other ones.
42:44I was going to say, that's going to look like one hell of a herd whenever they all get together.
42:48Yeah.
42:48They're all together right now.
42:49Come look at them.
42:50Are they?
42:50Yeah.
42:50Wow, that's awesome.
42:56Knowing that these bison were part of the original herd that repopulated the United States when the bison were on the brink of extinction.
43:02It's really a generational moment for us here at McBee Farms, knowing that decades from now, my kids' kids are going to be running these bison here at the farm.
43:15We got them home.
43:16I think it's time to get ourselves home now.
43:17I kind of stink.
43:18That river shower we took there and they didn't do it for me.
43:21Let's not fall off the fence.
43:51This is a nice view.
43:56This is cute.
43:57Pretty nice, huh?
43:59Not too bad for some old cowboy, huh?
44:05We couldn't have asked for a better night.
44:06It's been, like, hot every day and it's really nice out tonight.
44:08I know.
44:12You want one?
44:13Lunchable?
44:13No.
44:14Lunchable, man.
44:14You can't be a lunchable.
44:17Just a date or what?
44:18Lunchables and some pretzels.
44:21Out in the cow pasture.
44:25Probably one of the best dates I've taken you on, huh?
44:28It really is.
44:29When I was 18 years old, I was out with a bunch of friends late at night.
44:33This girl that I went to school with messaged me and was like, hey, come get in the hot tub.
44:37You know, me and my friend are over here chilling.
44:39Lo and behold, I get there and there's Casey.
44:41First time I've ever met her.
44:42And I don't care how small Gallatin is or any other town around here.
44:45I was a star quarterback for two years of this town.
44:48So I feel like everybody should know who I am just from that.
44:50And he asked me to go to a Dustin Lynch concert with him.
44:54We go to the concert.
44:55He was too scared to kiss me when we got back.
44:58We hit it off really well.
44:59It was like four in the morning.
45:00Literally watched the sun come up.
45:01After that, I kind of friend zoned him for a little while.
45:04And then we went driving around one night, like with a group of friends.
45:08And then at the end of the night, it just ended up being me and Cole.
45:11I'm not really romantic, huh?
45:13Mm-mm.
45:14And I don't know why, but like a flip just switched and we made eye contact.
45:18And like, I could feel it in like my stomach and my heart.
45:21I was like, I am going to love this guy for so long.
45:24And I don't know.
45:25I've never had that feeling ever.
45:27You just like show your love in different ways.
45:30Yeah.
45:31Mm-hmm.
45:34No, I know we've been kind of like not really knowing what things are lately.
45:38I mean, we knew we were together.
45:39Yeah.
45:40We didn't really have like a name for it, I guess.
45:43But I don't know.
45:45I think I'm ready to admit.
45:48What about you?
45:49Yeah.
45:50I would call you my boyfriend.
45:52Oh, would you?
45:53Yeah.
45:53I realized that Casey is definitely the only girl I could see myself settling down with.
46:00Only five years later.
46:01For the 37th time.
46:05No, I think we've definitely grown up in the last year.
46:10Might as well try it again, huh?
46:12Yeah.
46:13All right.
46:14I think it's probably time.
46:15Yeah.
46:17Hey, boy.
46:19Hey, boy.
46:21Hey, Abby.
46:21Hey, Abby.
46:24Tell me, where did you sleep last night?
46:34Bummer.
46:35Oh, what?
46:37These girls.
46:39Whoa, whoa, whoa.
46:40Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
46:43Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
46:44Hold on.
46:45Steve, I'm hurt.
46:47Your dad doesn't want you guys to be, like, booed up.
46:50I can't figure out who's the bigger train wreck, Stephen and Cal or Cole and Casey.
46:56I brought some boxes.
46:57Can you help me?
46:58Yeah.
46:59Galena has no intentions of finding her own place.
47:03Cal told him that you've been writing $10,000 and $20,000 checks to her.
47:07If I was running everything and I was in control of the finances, I would not be handing money to a girlfriend like that.
47:12Do you think Dad would trust you with taking over the farm?
47:17That ain't gonna happen over my dead body.
