Taylor Sheridanthe success of the series Landman put again Billy Bob ThorntonTommy finds himself in scandalous situations, with him asking a stripper if she would give him his on-screen father Sam Elliott a straw
During the Sunday, January 4 episode of the Paramount+ show, Tommy found his father, TL (Elliott), in the pool after his health problems prevented him from walking. he talked to Tommy about mortalitywhich inspired his son to seek help in an unexpected place.
Tommy visited a gentlemen’s club, the same as his ex-wife, Angela (Ali Larter), and daughter Ainsley (Michelle Randolph) went on a field trip with members of the retirement home. He asked one of the exotic dancers if she would consider a job offer.
“It’s not like that (and) it’s not even for me. It’s for my father. He’s 82 years old and he’s been eaten up by arthritis and all kinds of injuries. He can barely walk from one end of the couch to the other,” he explained. “Now, I think with your line of work, you probably have to stay pretty flexible, right? So you stretch and you do yoga. You’re your own physical therapist, essentially.”
Taylor Sheridan’s hit series Landman has been renewed for Season 3, but which stars are returning and not? Inspired by the “Boomtown” podcast series, Landman focuses on the West Texas oil industry with a specific focus on struggling executive Tommy Norris and his family. The Paramount+ show, which premiered in 2024, featured Billy Bob (…)
Tommy he asked for the nameless woman’s help (IMDB has Francesca Xuereb listed as Cheyenne for the three-episode role.)
“Could you help my dad? Just show him some of your stretches to make him stronger. It wouldn’t be sex, you don’t have to wear high heels and a thong or anything like that,” she pointed out. “My father is as stubborn as a mule, but he can’t say no to a pretty woman. It’s an hour a day, twice a week to help an old man.”
After the dancer agreed because of how “sad” TL looked, Tommy he pushed his luck.
“(That’s) a little weird, but it’s innocent. You can do it with your clothes on (or) you can do it naked. I don’t give a ***,” he continued. “Now if you want to do something to him every now and then with your hand or something… I was just throwing it out there. It’s not a requirement, just forget I said anything.”
Cheyenne visited TL later that afternoon and suggested aqua physical therapy. They stripped down to their underwear (TL stayed in his jeans) and Cheyenne cradled him in her arms as he floated in the pool. He asked Cheyenne if she had a boyfriend, to which she confirmed no. They then expressed interest in continuing the physiotherapy sessions in the future.
At the house, Tommy and the other residents talked about Cheyenne. Angela specifically asked Tommy if TL’s “whore is staying for dinner.” Tommy clarified that Cheyenne is “a physical therapist” in several ways.
Speaking of Angela, earlier in the episode he called Tommy in a bikini to ask him for money.
“Can I get $10,000 out of the safe? I want to take my old folks to the casino and we need money to play,” he asked as he showed what little he had. “Nickels don’t change lives, baby. I’m in a life-changing mood and I feel lucky. How about you, Tommy? Feeling lucky?”
Ultimately, Tommy agreed to Angela’s request and said, “I’ll rationalize it like this. If I was in Amsterdam and you were one of those whores in a little glass box and it cost me $10,000 to fuck you, I’d pay. $10,000 buys me sex on Saturday night, so you better shut the fucking extensions up.”
Angela he was able to return to Tommy their money, and then some. He surprised Tommy with a “return” on his investment after winning $317,622 at the casino.
“(I won) $100,000 at roulette, but at the craps table is where it really started to go my way,” she told Tommy, who replied, “Nice job, baby. I can think of some plans (for us) with that money.”
