"I've never seen a stronger response to Landman than I did this past week, watching how fans acted after last week's surprise twist. I mean, hell, nearly everyone who tuned into season 2's penultimate episode left thinking that Tommy Norris (Billy Bob Thornton) wouldn't even be Mr. Landman after Cami Miller (Demi Moore) fired him. That's how stunned viewers were following the latest cliff-hanger from creator and writer Taylor Sheridan. Tommy hadn't even uttered a word yet and fans thought it meant the potential end of his tenure on Landman as we knew it. But a Landman without Billy Bob? Never."
"Among the dozens of fan theories that I read this week, the one that makes the most sense predicted that Tommy would strike up a deal with Danny Morrell (Andy Garcia) to start his own oil company with his son, Cooper (Jacob Lofland). Much like any great mystery, the obvious answer is usually the only right answer. Still, there's plenty more for Landman's season 2 finale to sort through. How would Cami react to Tommy as a rival?"
"Well, kicking off this seventy-two-minute season 2 finale, Tommy immediately reminds us that Cooper's wells are not legally M-Tex property yet. Cami didn't negotiate it. I did, he says. She has absolutely no fucking knowledge of that transaction. So, if you bet your money on Tommy striking it out on his own with his son's wells, it's looking like a good theory right away."
Fans reacted strongly to a surprise twist, with many believing Cami Miller had effectively fired Tommy Norris and ended his role as the landman. A prevailing theory predicts Tommy will partner with Danny Morrell to launch an independent oil company with his son Cooper. The seventy-two-minute finale reveals Cooper's wells are not legally M-Tex property and that Tommy negotiated the deal, asserting Cami's lack of knowledge. The episode includes a violent attack on Ariana and Cooper seeks charges. The finale sets up a rivalry between Tommy and Cami and raises who now holds the landman position.
