Applying the same logic, it doesn’t add up that John’s death could come at the hands of such a minor character. Sarah has done little to establish herself as a serious threat. Jamie has never once outsmarted his father. Neither seems stronger together. (Their tryst appears superficially manipulative on her part, like she’s seducing Jamie as part of her job at Market Equities, and it only makes him look dumber for naively going along with it.) That leaves the rest of Season 5 with a lot of work to do in explaining how, exactly, these two nincompoops did what so many more capable antagonists across the previous four seasons couldn’t: kill John Dutton.
