Belinda
This should be a wonderful day for Belinda, right?
Family, sex, potential professional advancement, gorgeous scenery… the world is her oyster, no?
Earlier in the episode, we see him tell Chloe that he needs her help to deal with something.

Pornchais offer, meanwhile, is more complicated than he thinks.
Things ended well for several members of the Sicilian staff; maybe Belinda will be similarly rewarded this time?
But Tims whole world is collapsing, with suicide feeling like the best possible outcome.
So hes more open to the experience than he would have been at any other moment in his lifetime.
Lost connection with nature, with the family.
Lost connection with the spirit.
The self, identity.
Chasing money, pleasure, yeah?
resonates with everything Tim is feeling at the moment.
That feels incredibly dark for this series, though.
Gaitok
Another White Lotus staffer seemingly enjoying a great day that never actually feels that great.
And when his boss takes him to the shooting range, Gaitok proves a very good shot.
But the boss question about whether Gaitok has the killer instinct portends trouble.
Rick and Frank
Theres no follow-up to Franks monologue about his former fascination with Thai ladyboys.
We do at least finally hear Scott Glenns voice at the very end of the episode.
Laurie, though, is just hurt.
Or maybe it will be Laurie snapping and shooting at everyone in her sight?
Then, the flashback evolves into Saxon masturbating right next to his brother having sex.
And finally, each of them realizes that Lochlan was the one giving his brother a hand.
But this is a show where a lot of strange things happen.
