Dusty arrived at the Big House to find Cam working outside on Rebel Blue Ranch business, coordinating the rescue of former rodeo horses from Cody for the new horse sanctuary. He reminded Cam of their appointment, and after a brief check-in on her work, they agreed to leave shortly. Dusty reflected on how fulfilling it was to work alongside Cam, with her handling legal and administrative needs while he managed the horse care.

Dusty revealed that he and Cam had gotten married at the courthouse the previous week with Riley as their only witness. He noted that Cam had declined a big wedding and chose an intimate ceremony instead. They planned to keep the news private until after Emmy and Luke’s upcoming wedding.

Dusty and Cam arrived at Shannon’s tattoo parlor, where memories of their teenage tattoos resurfaced. Shannon teased them for being late and overly affectionate, then prepared to work. Cam chose to go first for a new tattoo that would serve as a wedding ring.

Shannon applied a simple black line stencil around Cam’s ring finger and began the tattoo. Dusty held Cam’s hand and reassured her, referring to her as “Ash,” and promised the tattoo—and their commitment—would be permanent. Cam kissed the “A” on Dusty’s neck, recalling his existing tattoo for her.

They exchanged declarations of love, with Dusty vowing, “I’ll love you until we’re dust,” and Cam repeating, “Until we’re dust … And even after.” The scene underscored their renewed, now-official partnership and the symbolic permanence of their bond through matching ring tattoos.
