The White Lotus S3 E5

“Full Moon Party”

Sam Rockwell showed up in Bangkok as Rick’s friend. He brought him a gun and a story about what led him to be ten months sober, and that story was about as unexpectantly shocking as anything on the episode.

It felt like something horrific was going to happen the whole episode.

In the end, most of these stories felt as if they were in a holding pattern. It felt as if something was going to happen that was tragic, but it never did.

I am still most invested in Belinda and her worries over Greg/Gary, which leads to a night of passion for her.

I’m not sure what the trio of blondes and the Russians story was. I was not a fan of the party boat with the Ratliff boys. Timothy Ratliff’s suicidal feelings are interesting, and Parker Posey is always fun.

At this point, I am not sure what is going on and I am not sure where this season is heading. I do like these characters, but I just feel as if nothing of substance has happened and I am waiting for it to kick into gear.
