Marshals Episode 10 Puts Garrett's Future On The Yellowstone Spin-Off In Serious Doubt
Contains spoilers for "Marshals" Season 1, Episode 10 — "Playing with Fire"
Garrett (Riley Green) has had one heck of a hard-luck journey through life, and his latest appearance on the "Yellowstone" spin-off "Marshals" proves to be no exception to that rule. The barn where he's been bunking on Kayce Dutton's (Luke Grimes) property goes up in flames while he's asleep in "Playing with Fire." It's a horrifying moment for Garrett, and only Kayce's fortitude and courage save his life. But Garrett suffers from second-degree burns as well as lung damage, landing him in the hospital.
Garrett's fate is left hanging in the balance at the close of Episode 10; his condition has improved slightly, but not enough to get him home. He keeps fading in and out of consciousness and his oxygen saturation is also still pretty low, leaving his life in danger. But odds seem to be in Green's favor that Garrett will survive his latest brush with death.
It's possible that Garrett won't be done after Season 1
Fans of "Marshals" are guaranteed to see Garrett one more time before the season ends; he appears in Episode 11, "On Thin Ice," which will air next. While there's no hint about his status, preview images feature flashbacks to his time as Kayce's compatriot while they were both serving as Navy SEALS.
That's also where Garrett met Kayce's past and current colleague Pete Calvin (Logan Marshall Green), though Pete has a big grudge against Garrett due to his behavior during his last tour of duty. The show hasn't quite explained what the problem between the two men happens to be, but it's definitely a lingering issue that continues to impact their relationship, both in the field and behind closed doors.
Might there be more of Garrett in the show sometimes in the future? While Riley Green has stayed somewhat mum on the topic, he told USA Today that "there's the possibility that he could be back." That remains to be seen, but as Garrett clings to life, all "Marshals" fans can do is hope for the best — and, in spite of that hopeful note, brace themselves for the worst.
