Fans were left surprised by Billy Bob Thornton’s full-frontal nude scene in “Landman.”
Thornton’s goods were on display in Sunday night’s episode after his character, Tommy, accidentally exposed himself to a hotel waitress. He woke up as she was attempting to deliver food to the room, setting up a room service tray by the bed. When she saw he was naked from the waist down, she yelled, “Don’t rape me!”
“Who the f— are you?” he asked her. “I’m not gonna rape you.”
“Put your d— away,” his wife, played by Ali Larter, said. “Don’t be scared, darling. That wasn’t about you. He eats Cialis like M&Ms, runs into door jambs all morning with that thing. So sorry about that.”

“I was trying to surprise you with breakfast in bed… That is not the best angle of your b—s—, I might add,” she said. “I’d scream too.”
“You know, you really gotta love a man to look at him from there,” she continued, mocking her husband for exposing himself below the belt. “Poor thing, if she wasn’t a lesbian when she walked in here, she’s a f—ing lesbian now.”
