Almost entirely plot, all I found online was passing mentions in episode reviews or interviews. The coverage in article is limited to a single episode. Best I found was this on the characters death. Olliefant (she/her) 02:59, 11 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment: A Hero in All of Us? – Heroism and American Political Thought as Seen on TV by Bloomsbury Publishing has page of analysis of Lance Hornsby’s character and importance of his role as antagonist for the plot. Daranios (talk) 15:22, 11 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep This web article is another in the same vein as the one found by Olliefant (btw thanks a lot for commenting on the result of the WP:BEFORE search, which I find very helpful but often missing in these discussions), and this is another review for an episode (a different one then that discussed in the article), but which talks mostly about the character. Taking together the secondary sources in the article and those found here I believe there is enough material to support a non-stubby article which also fullfills WP:NOTPLOT (some trimming may be in order on the way there). Therefore I see notability established and deletion as no longer warranted. Daranios (talk) 16:23, 12 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

  Thanks for finding those, I hadn’t even thought to look into German sources. From what I can tell with google translate, they seem good enough to establish notability Olliefant (she/her) 16:49, 12 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep per sources found by Daranios. BOZ (talk) 18:03, 12 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep. There are reliable sources that exist and discuss the character in some detail, such as those from Entertainment Weekly and Main Street Media of Tennessee. Z. Patterson (talk) 01:02, 13 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
