In the hit HBO series, Scott Glenn's character, Jim Hollinger, is the owner of the White Lotus hotel in Thailand. He is the object of obsession for one of the hotel's guests, Rick Hatchett, who blames the old man for his father's death. When he finds out that Jim is staying in Bangkok following a heart attack, Rick travels to the capital city to confront him.
Rick meets with Jim under the pretense of offering a film role to his wife and former actress, Sritala. He introduces himself as a Hollywood producer and is joined by his friend Frank, who poses as a director named Steve. Scott Glenn is first seen in episode 7 alongside actress Lek Patravadi, who plays his wife, at the couple's stately mansion in Bangkok.
During their meeting, Rick requests to speak privately with Jim and confronts him for killing his father during a land dispute decades ago. He also blames him for ruining his mother Gloria Hatchett's life as she was pregnant with him at the time. But Jim just stares at him since he has no recollection of either of them.
Rick pulls out his gun to shoot the old man but decides to spare his life in the end. At that moment, he realizes that Jim does not have control over his life. He finds closure not by killing him but by walking away and making peace with his past.
