- How far are they from civilization? Parts of Wyoming, Colorado and Montana are that remote.
- If the ranch owner lost the cattle, would his life be over? Patricia Wedig's character would sue him, and refunding everyone is a terrible business.
- What happened to Norman in New York City? He probably goes to a petting zoo.
- The family leaves the airport with a calf in the van with no questions about how it got on the flight; Mitch's big tip shows he isn't cheap, and airports allowed hanging out then.
- Asked whether CR is man enough to run with the bulls, the answer is yes. — Sean Fennessey
- The response to running with the bulls is that avoiding unforced errors and not dying come first, with a Grantland 10th-anniversary piece joke.
- How did Palance keep the cigarette dangling but not burning? It might have been a stunt cigarette.
- Would you retire to this part of the country? No; cities, restaurants and sporting events matter, though Nuggets games are close.
