If I had to pinpoint the most insultingly stupid scene in this episode, one strong contender would have to be Beth playing strip poker with Travis.
One hand of Texas Hold ‘Em. If he wins, she has to strip naked while he records her with his phone. If she wins, he agrees to fly to Montana and, for no commission, auction off all the ranch’s assets so he can work the same mojo he used to swindle the fat Brazilians in tracksuits on fellow ranchers that her father spent his entire life building personal and business relationships with. People who know exactly what the livestock and equipment are worth.
So Travis proceeds to deal Beth a monster hand. Queens full of nines. But wait. Travis has four Aces, which is not at all suspicious. Apparently he’s Worm from ‘Rounders’ now.
So even though Beth despises Travis with every fiber of her being, he clearly won fair and square. So with nothing more than an admonition that her husband is going to kill him, Beth immediately commences to taking off her clothes so Travis can make a video of her naughty bits.
Silly Beth. You can keep your clothes on after all. Travis was planning to do the auction all along. The strip poker thing was just him having a little fun with you. Besides, now it’s time for corn dogs.
