Ahead of the Outer Banks Season 2 release, Netflix shared a set of teaser clips to give fans a better idea of what to expect from the new slate of episodes. In one entitled, "Fired," JJ serves a group of Kooks at the restaurant he's working at.

"John B is going to hell for what he did to Sheriff Peterkin," a girl at Topper's table says as JJ is pouring water for the group.

"Guys, they're still investigating," Topper responds.

When JJ gets upset at Topper's friends, Sarah's ex tells him to "walk away" because "it's not the time." After Topper attempts to diffuse the situation, JJ and Kelce (Deion Smith) get into a physical altercation. Topper, once again reiterates that it's a bad time, and puts himself in the middle to try to separate the two.

Because Topper had been vehemently opposed to the Pogues in Season 1, viewers were surprised by his apparent sympathy for the group in the video.

Many believe that the character will have an expanded role in the new season, and that he may have become disillusioned with the Kooks after seeing more of his close friend Rafe's antics. After all, he did help Sarah and her new beau out in the Season 1 finale by wearing John B's red sweatshirt to distract the police.

"Topper becoming friends with JJ is on my Outer Banks wish list," one fan tweeted.

"Is it bad that I want [a] Topper redemption arc in OBX S2?" a different Twitter user posted.

Another pointed out the similarities between Topper's potential storyline and what happened to Steve Harrington on Stranger Things. Viewers detested Steve when he dated Nancy Wheeler (Natalia Dyer) in Season 1 of the sci-fi original, but he became a beloved character once the next season premiered.

"Topper from OBX gives off major Steve-Harrington-redemption-arc-vibes," a user wrote.

Will Topper continue his streak of good behavior and distance himself from the Kooks in favor of the outcasts? Viewers will have to tune in to Season 2 to find out.
