They say that he is supposed to be at home fighting Banner and his men instead of falling in love in Africa.Fans are even frustrated that they have to wait until February 4 to find out what happens next as that is when the new episode will be released. One particular fan even thinks that the African angle to this plot is getting stretched and the prodigal son should be home by now.Spencer is a war veteran who prefers not to read letters sent to him in Africa because it reminds him of the horrors of war. A fan joked about his situation and wondered if the real reason was that Spencer couldn't read.What is 1923 about?1923 is an American Western drama television series that serves as a prequel to Yellowstone and a sequel to the series,1883.
