You just hope you stick the landing.”Cast member Jon Gries also teased that “whatever you think you know, you’re going to get it wrong”, while Charlotte Le Bon said simply: “People are going to hate Mike White.”The episode also saw Lochlan Ratliff (portrayed by Sam Nivola) coming close to death after inadvertently consuming the poisonous seeds his father had left out from the previous night – only to come back to life in the episode’s final moments.All three seasons of The White Lotus are available to stream now on Sky and Now.MORE WHITE LOTUS:21 Best Behind-The-Scenes Stories From The White Lotus Cast About Their Time On SetWoody Harrelson Sets The Record Straight About Why He Pulled Out Of The White Lotus Season 3This Is How The White Lotus Managed To Keep Jon Gries' Shock Return A Secret
