Tulsa King Season 3 Episode 7 recap: Dwight plays the long game amid Jeremiah’s escalating war

Tulsa King Season 3 Episode 7, Art of War, dropped on Paramount+ on November 2, 2025.

The story picks up right where Episode 6 left off, straight back into chaos. Tensions spike, the turf war gets downright savage, and Dwight Manfredi’s crew finds itself in more danger than ever.

Back in Tulsa King Season 3 Episode 6, everything boiled over during Dwight’s meeting with Quiet Ray at Bubbles restaurant down in Arkansas. The two started arguing, and everyone was wondering what happened to Bill Bevilaqua. Before they can figure anything out, Cole and his guys show up with guns blazing.

Everything spirals into chaos. Bullets fly, and Dwight barely makes it out alive. Turns out, it wasn’t Quiet Ray behind Bill Bevilaqua’s disappearance after all. Musso pulled the strings, locking Bill away so nobody would find out about Dwight’s federal ties.

Tulsa King Season 3 Episode 7 jumps right in after all that. Dwight is reeling from the botched hit and Musso’s betrayal. With tensions sky-high, he splits up his crew for some risky bootlegging runs. Meanwhile, Jeremiah Dunmire elevates the heat in Tulsa, not just with muscle, but with legal maneuvers too.

Tulsa King Season 3 Episode 7 recap

Episode 7 of Tulsa King Season 3 wastes no time throwing us into the chaos after the distillery shuts down. Dwight Manfredi is scrambling. Montague Distilleries is locked up by the state, his partners are nowhere to be found, and he can’t just wing it anymore since he has to play smart. His crew is running on fumes, and enemies are closing in. Jeremiah Dunmire is especially dangerous now. The guy is pulling strings everywhere, from city hall to the dirt roads outside town.

Even with all the tension in the room, Dwight doesn’t flinch. Ray finally calls him up after freezing him out and making it clear he is not exactly feeling friendly. The two old mobsters talk it out and settle on a shaky truce. Dwight refuses to give up a huge chunk of his profits. Instead, he pitches a better idea: Ray can open doors for Montague’s liquor in the Northeast, and in return, he gets to cash in on that territory.

It’s not exactly warm and fuzzy, but it works for now. Ray can’t help tossing in a threat about Dwight eventually having to give up a piece of his empire, but Dwight just shrugs. He knows these threats don’t matter much when the balance of power is always shifting.

Meanwhile, over at the Bred-2-Buck Casino, Dwight zeroes in on the legal mess strangling his distillery. The Attorney General, Sackrider, handed down the order, thanks to pressure from Jeremiah and the current governor. Dwight doesn’t go to Sackrider to plead his case. He is there to remind him how fast things change. With the next election, and Governor Thresher likely taking over, all these alliances will flip. If Sackrider wants to keep his head above water, he must figure out which way the current is moving.

Episode 7 of Tulsa King Season 3 sees Margaret jump in to smooth things over. She meets Anna, Sackrider’s wife, and picks up on the real problem: the attorney general’s gambling is wrecking his marriage. Armed with that, Dwight sets up a meeting between Sackrider and Thresher at the casino, hoping to pull Sackrider away from Jeremiah’s side.

Things get awkward. Thresher tries to buy Sackrider off, not even subtle about it, and Sackrider shuts him down. So Dwight switches gears. He lets the casino work its magic. Grace hands Sackrider some chips, tells him to have a good time. At first, he can’t lose, then suddenly he can’t win, all thanks to Dwight’s loaded dice.

When Sackrider finally gets how much he owes, Dwight steps in with a grin and an easy fix: wipe the debt, just stick with us. Sackrider doesn’t answer out loud, but you can read it on his face.

Jeremiah loses it when he finds out someone is trying to poach his best ally. He storms across the casino parking lot with his crew, ready for a fight, but Dwight shuts him down, telling him maybe he should read Sun Tzu’s The Art of War before starting more trouble. Jeremiah is too stubborn to back off, so he just swears revenge and storms off into the night.

Meanwhile, Dwight is already a step ahead: Sackrider is neck-deep in debt and stuck working for him, and somewhere along the way, the Montague Distilleries seal just quietly vanishes.

On the other side of Dwight’s business, things run a little smaller but no less interesting. Tyson, Goodie, and Spencer put together a scheme to make some easy money. Bootlegging is out, their routes are shot, so they set their sights on a frat house that is just a front for a drug operation. They show up posing as feds, grab the cash and stash, and get out clean.

It all looks smooth on paper, but you can feel the tension building between Tyson, who wants more, and Goodie, who plays it safe. Dwight’s young crew might be loyal in Tulsa King Season 3, but you get the sense they are going to be a headache down the line.

Elsewhere, Jeremiah’s bond with his son Cole falls apart even more. As his empire starts to come undone, Jeremiah takes it out on Cole, mocking him and making it clear to everyone that brute force is all he has left. Cole, who used to stand by him, finally sees there is no point following a man who is drowning in his own pride.

Near the end of Episode 7 of Tulsa King Season 3, Dwight drops a copy of The Art of War on Jeremiah’s desk, a taunt and a warning rolled into one. It lands with a certain inevitability. Suddenly, Jeremiah has lost Sackrider, the distillery ban disappears, and his grip on power slips away fast.

Furious and desperate, he storms into Sackrider’s office and tries to choke him out. Security rushes in and pulls him off before he can finish. That is it for Jeremiah Dunmire, the man who thought he was untouchable, who ends up hauled off to jail.
