White Lotus viewers in the Season 3 finale got what they’ve been waiting for. Mook and Gaitok had their first date at Muay Thai camp in what could be a weird date for some people. Greg, also referred to as Gary, had to tell Belinda the truth. Yes, he is indeed the man she thought he was, and yes, he killed his dear wife Tanya in Italy. But Greg claims that living it up in Thailand is what Tanya would have wanted. It is not about the law, he argues, it is just avoiding legal issues, lawyers and unwanted assumptions. To sweeten the deal, he told her that she would get $100, 000 and be quiet about it. Spoiler: she wasn’t interested.
On the other side, someone last week realized that Tim is in a bad shape, however it was his first born child Saxon who told him so in his own way that could be classified as emotional withdrawal. Saxon said just like Victoria said that taking away money would destroy her, ‘Dad, this job at your company that is failing is all I have.’ No interests, no hobbies. If I am not successful then I am no body and I cannot handle that. Tim, however, did not find this very encouraging. While drunk on whiskey and lorazepam, he told it away with a shaky ‘Kid, we are alright’ as if everything was okay at the South Carolina family office.
In Bangkok, Rick and Frank, the fake filmmakers from Hollywood, got to Sritala and Jim Hollinger’s luxurious house by the river to pitch their fake movie project. Frank didn’t even make it a day without booze while Rick took Jim to the side and talked to him. At last, Rick talked to the man he was sure had murdered his father and was rather shocked when Jim (played by Scott Glenn, who is between 83 and 87 years old, depending on the Wikipedia editor) had no idea what Rick was talking about. It was neither a confession nor a denial, but when Rick pulled out a gun that Frank had bought for him, it seemed as though the revenge was about to be taken. Instead of that, Rick decided to tip Jim’s chair over and then run away with Frank to go out and have some fun; the gun that was not used was even left in a dustbin. Chelsea would approve.
At the monastery, Piper and Lochlan’s sleepover was still ongoing. After a rather intimate encounter with their elder brother on the boat, Lochlan told Piper that he also wants to become a monk. However, Piper doesn’t exactly look happy that her magician brother is ruining her monastic experience.
Chloe also shared with Greg about her encounter with the Ratliff boys. His response? Proposing a threesome with Saxon was rather unusual, but then he launched into some weird talk about how he wanted to screw his mother when his father was screwing her. Just another day in paradise!
