‘The White Lotus’ Fans Blown Away by Explosive Episode 5 Twists: ‘The Little One Was a Little Too in to That Kiss’

Note: This story contains spoilers from “The White Lotus” Season 3, Episode 5.

While some viewers found the first four episodes of “The White Lotus” Season 3 on the slower side, Mike White’s anthology series ramped up with an explosive Episode 5, that took the season exactly where some fans were thinking.

After much of the guests spent their day on Greg/Gary’s yacht in Episode 4, Episode 5 sees the group filter off, with brothers Saxon (Patrick Schwarzenegger) and Lochlan (Sam Nivola) heading to the full moon party with Chelsea (Aimee Lou Wood) and Chloe (Charlotte Le Bon), whose boyfriends have both chosen not to join in on the festivities.

After a fair amount of drinking and some drugs — which some fans found reminiscent of HBO’s “Euphoria” — the group took turns kissing each other — including brothers Saxon and Lochlan, sending social media into a frenzy.

“We all called the Saxon and Lochlan kiss happening in episode one and yet it still was surprising,” one fan wrote, while another wrote, “the incest is actually happening.”
