After Hawaii and Sicily, the latest outing of the black comedy has shifted focus to the hotel chain’s luxury Thai resort. We'll have to wait to see how the remainder of the season unfolds, but there's already the requisite dark secrets and dead bodies.
The latest season checked in a new eclectic group of guests to Thailand's White Lotus resort. The core focus is around the Ratliff family headed up by Jason Isaacs’ businessman Timothy and his heavily medicated wife Victoria (Parker Posey). They’re travelling with their three children; sons Saxon (Patrick Schwarznegger – yes, that Schwarznegger) and Lochlan (Sam Nivola) and daughter Piper (Sarah Catherine Hook).
There’s also three gal pals – Jaclyn (Michelle Monaghan), Laurie (Carrie Coon) and Kate (Leslie Bibb) – reuniting for a trip after Laurie’s recent divorce, and age-gap odd couple Rick (Walton Goggins) and Chelsea (Aimee Lou Wood). While Jennifer Coolidge’s Tanya won’t be around this season, there is another familiar face in the form of season one’s spa manager Belinda (Natasha Rothwell).

The White Lotus season 3, episode 5 recap
While Piper informs her socked parents that she is planning on staying on in Thailand and joining the monastery, her brothers, Saxon and Lochlan, head to a Full Moon Party with Chloe and Chelsea. Chloe convinces the boys to try ecstasy, with Chelsea along for the ride after she's unable to get hold of Rick.
Rick, meanwhile, is meeting his friend Frank (a surprise cameo from Sam Rockwell) in Bangkok to collect a gun for his confrontation with Jim Hollinger. Over whisky and chamomile tea, the pair discuss Frank's Thai past with alcohol, drugs and sex and his recent conversion to Buddhism.
Belinda visits Fabian, explaining her past with Greg/Gary and asks him to contact the police. When he refuses, she turns to Pornchai for protection as his overnight stay takes a romantic turn.
Meanwhile, after a night of clubbing, Jaclyn, Laurie and Kate invite Valentin and his friends back to their villa, Laurie and Valentin hit it off, with things promising to move to the next level before Kate calls it a night. Later, Valentin returns to the villa, but heads to Jaclyn's room for a late night rendezvous...
