A brief recap of The White Lotus season 3 episode 3

Ad

The White Lotus season 3 episode 3 follows the third day of the guests' week-long vacation at Thailand's White Lotus hotel.

Timothy's office gets raided by the FBI, and he buckles under the pressure of possibly losing his fortune and going to jail. With no easy way out, he decides to become unreachable for the remainder of the trip so that he can come up with a plan by the time he returns home. He resorts to taking sleeping pills and dozes off for most of the day.

Timothy agrees with Pam's suggestion of going on a digital detox and convinces his family members to hand over their phones and other electronic devices. This way, he can protect himself and his family from the impending doom, at least for a few more days.

Moreover, Rick poses as a film producer and offers Sritala, a former actress, a part in his next project. She gives Rick her address in Bangkok to meet the director and disscuss the project further.

However, Rick's true motive is to meet her husband, Jim Hollinger, who is in Bangkok since suffering a stroke. He makes up his mind to travel to Bangkok the next day, which annoys Chelsea.

After getting stoned, Rick takes Chelsea to watch a snake show and impulsively sets the creatures free from their enclosures. She gets bitten by one of the snakes and gets rushed to the hospital immediately.

Meanwhile, Jaclyn and Laurie team up to make fun of Kate's religious and political beliefs, leaving her feeling isolated. At dinner, Belinda walks up to Greg and reminds him about their meeting in Maui, but he denies knowing her.
