The midseason finale of Yellowstone season 5 saw Beth and Jamie Dutton go to war against each other, and fans on Twitter had a lot to say about it.

Jamie Dutton and Beth Dutton are played by Wes Bentley and Kelly Reilly respectively.

Following their heated exchange in the latest episode, netizens claimed that the conflict has now turned ugly, with the siblings now baying for each other's blood. One fan even said that Jamie gets bullied for no reason.

Yellowstone's Beth was unaware of the Train Station, fans are enraged at Jamie for his treachery

Season 5 episode 8 of the popular drama saw a number of things unfolding in the story of young Rip getting a family in the Duttons and saw the return of Jimmy as well. The synopsis of the latest episode reads:

"Jamie goes through with his plan, John lends support to an unexpected friend, the Yellowstone cowboys embark on a journey, and a flashback reveals the source of Rip's loyalty."

The most talked-about part of the episode, however, was undoubtedly the ugly war between Jamie and Beth Dutton. The end of the episode saw the siblings fighting like maniacs, almost hell-bent on taking each other's lives.

Check out what fans had to say about the fight unraveling in the latest episode:

Fans of the show have expressed their hate for Jamie on Twitter by saying that he deserves a trip to the Train Station. Over the past couple of years, we have seen the formation of Team Beth and Team Jamie on the internet, with both groups feeling very strongly about both the characters.

It was also revealed in the episode that Beth was not aware of what the Train Station was. For new fans, the Train Station is not an actual train station but a rural canyon area past the Montana border, where the Duttons and the branded execute and/or dispose of their enemies and those who become privy to many of Yellowstone's secrets.

Moreover, fans of the show are also seemingly upset by the lack of loyalty shown by Jamie towards his family. He has been revealing way too many secrets lately and could pretty soon be paying the price for it. In fact, after the press conference, Beth showed up at her brother's place and hit him with a rock in the head. The siblings then straight up landed heavy blows on each other, with the intention of causing considerable harm.

From the looks of it, only one of the Dutton siblings is going to survive by the time the show ends.
