White Lotus Season 3 finale spoilers

I really enjoyed the ending and this season as a whole. It was slow, maybe it could have been trimmed down a bit, but I did feel that we really got to know these characters.

I think Laurie's speech was a real highlight. Sometimes life is just spending time with people and it's not a waste, it's not a failure, it's just life and that's a good thing.

I think Lochlan and his family was a great story. Each got to learn a little something about themselves and while it may not have changed them dramatically, they still understood themselves better.

Rick & Chelsea are of course the real tragedy of the show. By the 2nd to last and even during the last you really get the sense that Rick is able to move on. And he probably could have... if he had just left sooner. If the owner didn't show up. If he could have had a chat with the therapist. Such a shame.

I find myself more upset about Gaitok. He was so sweet and had ethics that were much firmer than most characters in the show. He realized the woman he loved didn't love him, but she was willing to if he gave up that part of himself. And he was ready to walk away from the job that he knew clashed with his beliefs.

But in the end that version of Gaitok died when he pulled the trigger. Maybe the new version will be happy, but I was sad to see him go. Chelsea obviously as well, but nobody else seems as affected by Gaitok as I am.

Tap for spoiler

That's a good point about Gaitok.

When we look at Piper, she has this belief of who she wants to be, but when she honestly tries it, she kinda hates it.

We look at Belinda who believes herself to be a good and moral person. However for enough money, maybe those morals aren't as important.

There are similar conundrums for other characters, including Gaitok. I think there is a lot of "giving in", but I'm not confident those characters will actually be happy. Rick gave in and look what happened to him.

I can’t believe they had to resort to cannibalism!
