Then, in Sunday\u2019s (October 12) new episode, Dwight came to reclaim it \u2026 at gunpoint.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">After the booze, so named for its 50-year age, was stolen from Tyson (<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/people\/jay-will\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Jay Will;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Jay Will<\/a>), who\u2019d been entrapped in a compromising position by an adult dancer in Cole\u2019s employ, the doting son was all too happy to show off his achievement to his father. As ignoble as Cole might be, watching him desperately hope that his father might give him an ounce of acknowledgement, only for Jeremiah\u2019s gratitude to go to \u201cthe Lord\u201d instead, was still a bit sad. Worse, when Dwight held Cole up at gunpoint and threatened to end his life if his dad didn\u2019t turn over the goods, Jeremiah hesitated.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p>Robert Patrick as Jeremiah Dunmire and Beau Knapp as Cole Dunmire in Tulsa King, episode 4, season 3, streaming on Paramount+, 2025.

He\u2019s willing to sacrifice Cole for the booze, so we can see where his father\u2019s just lost, in a way. He doesn\u2019t care about him. He doesn\u2019t care about his future or his dreams or anything like that,\u201d Beau Knapp explained to TV Insider. \u201cThis is supposed to be the greatest accomplishment of his life. It\u2019s heartbreaking.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As a result, viewers might wonder whether Jeremiah might\u2019ve been serious when he said, while Cole was still held up under threat of immediate death, that the only son he worshipped was Jesus Christ. Was he really willing to lose his son over the liquid gold? According to the actor portraying him, maybe so.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">\u201cIn a way, I think that Jeremiah might have been willing to sacrifice his son for that,\u201d Robert Patrick mused. \u201cAnd that\u2019s biblical\u2026. Obviously, the Lord is first with Jeremiah, and if the Lord told him to sacrifice his son, he would. So maybe, in his warped sort of perception, he would very well sacrifice Cole. Hard to believe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As for why Jeremiah continues to treat Cole like a pariah, rather than his only living heir, well, Patrick\u2019s perception of it is that it\u2019s a family tradition in the Dunmire brood.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Of the character\u2019s backstory, he guessed, \u201cI think it\u2019s a combination of the way Jeremiah was raised by his father and his grandfather, and that\u2019s the situation. I always go back to this. This is a passed-on, generation to generation \u2026 And now that\u2019s transferring on to Cole. And Cole, you\u2019ll see [throughout] the season, it progresses, it gets worse. The disciplinarian actions that I put on him, thrust on him, are pretty severe. And you have to kind of assume that Jeremiah went through these same punishments. And I don\u2019t think that he invented him himself for Cole. So Cole\u2019s in a tough spot. He\u2019s trying to win that approval from his dad, and he\u2019s not going to get it. He\u2019s a disappointment every step of the way.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In the end, Jeremiah did relent, but this clash with Dwight over the Montague haul is far from over on <i>Tulsa King<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><b><i>Tulsa King<\/i><\/b><b>, Sundays, Paramount+<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Read the latest entertainment news on <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.tvinsider.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:TV Insider;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">TV Insider<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[Warning: The following post contains spoilers for Tulsa King Season 3 Episode 4, \u201cStaring Down the Barrel.\u201d] The Fifty has been a bit of a hot potato on Tulsa King.
