Who Died in ‘The White Lotus’ Season 3? We Finally Know the Answer
Oh... my god?
[Spoilers ahead for The White Lotus season 3. Proceed with caution!]
The White Lotus season 3 is over, and going into the finale, there was a whole host of options for who could have been the body floating in the water. Here's what we knew: The season opened up with what sounded like a potential mass shooting breaking out at The White Lotus. The only characters confirmed spared initially were Belinda's son Zion and Amrita, a hotel worker who guided Zion in meditation when the shoot broke out. Zion, worried about his mother, immediately went towards the shooting and found himself waist-deep in a pool of water as an unidentified body floated past. Interestingly, we didn't see that frame again in the finale, and that moment is never really explained. Here's who died in the White Lotus season 3 finale.
Rick
After finally confronting the man that killed his father, he thought he was home free. But when Jim Hollinger returned to the hotel and told Rick the truth about his mom, he just couldn't let it go. In a moment of anger, Rick shot Tim, and then was shot by Gaitok.
Chelsea
Chelsea beat death twice this season—first with the robbery in the hotel gift shop, then with the snake bite. She was convinced that bad things come in threes, and she was right. During the shootout with Rick and the bodyguards, she took a bullet meant for Rick. She was simply too pure to make it out of the finale alive, unfortunately.
Jim Hollinger
Rick was so mad that Jim Hollinger insulted his mother that, in a fit of anger, he took Jim's gun from his holster and shot him twice in the chest. Unfortunately, while Jim was bleeding out, his wife Sritala told Rick that Jim was actually his father.
Jim's bodyguards were also both shot by Rick, making the final body count for the season a whopping five people.
Lochlan (almost!)
Lochlan was the only person in the Ratliff family who could have lived with nothing, and that's made him a prime target for an almost-death in the season finale. He drank the remnants of the pina coladas meant for the rest of his family and almost died, but thankfully, did not.
