The White Lotus

word of advice ! This clause hold spoilers for The White Lotus season 3 .

A gloomy theory aboutThe White Lotusseason 3 could smash one of the show ’s sweetest relationships . Thecast ofThe White Lotusseason 3follows in its predecessors ' stride in that many of the characters are merely unlikable . While there are some the audience can settle down for , even those have late - rooted military issue that makeThe White Lotusso compelling as a character - driven exploration of several unlike themes . By the meter ofThe White Lotusseason 3 , sequence 4 ’s conclusion , though , two undeniably sympathetic grapheme stay .

The characters in question are Mook and Gaitok , who are shown to have an unbelievably sweet dynamic . AsThe White Lotus ' Songkranand Full - Moon Party gets afoot , Gaitok and Mook are show to become nigher than ever . Gaitok ’s spirit for Mook are made clear , and it is observable that the latter also cares for the former in a quite a little of ways .

Mook Was Involved In The White Lotus Season 3’s Resort Robbery – Theory Explained

Could Mook Be A Secret Conspirator?

This hypothesis was first formulated afterThe White Lotusseason 3 , instalment 3 , and insisted that Mook is somehow involved in the robbery of the titular hotel . The White Lotusseason 3 , sequence 2 go out the hotel ’s store robbed by mask attacker , resulting in Gaitok being bump out and leading to his developments in episodes 3 and 4 that assure him get a gun for surplus protection . Although the gun being stolen now makes Gaitok ’s job even more hard , the robbery itself has been theorized to have been planned by Mook . After all , Mook is more aware of Gaitok ’s personality than anyone .

If Mook wishes to see the world , aid people rob a high - remnant resort to fund this excursion makes sense …

She could have severalize Valentin - who is also heavy suspected to have been require in the looting - how well to disquiet the security guard . The theory claim that Mook would do this as a mean of leave Thailand and her employment for gullible pastures . Mook has been shown to somewhat desire a better life than what Gaitok can offer her , as evidenced by her word about Sritala ’s bodyguard , their exciting occupation , and their tendency to travel the worldly concern earlier in the season . If Mook wishes to see the world , helping people gazump a high - conclusion resort to fund this excursion pee-pee sense .

Mook & Gaitok’s Story Seeming So Sweet Means A Dark Twist Had To Be Coming

The White Lotus Is Not Usually A Show That Has Happy Endings

Another hint thatThe White Lotusseason 3 could feature a drab twist for Gaitok and Mook is simply how angelic their moral force has been so far . Gaitok is an incredibly tolerant humanity who really manage about Mook and regard for a romanticist futurity with her , and Mook - despite not outwardly showcasing that his tone are reciprocated - is still genial to him . It seems that both want what is safe for the other person , yet this is not a plot line that fits well intoThe White Lotus ' established recipe .

SinceThe White Lotusseason 1 ’s ending , it became open that the show was content to search unlikable character and their issues . Even the most likable of characters in the show often make bad decision or have issues that touch their everyday life . Mook and Gaitok have not necessarily been shown to emulate this yet , with every single one of their interaction being nothing other than heartwarming and lovely . KnowingThe White Lotus , this is sure to terminate before long .

One way in which this sweet relationship would come crashing down is if it was revealed that the said Mook possibility is true . If she is revealed to be someone who is conspiring against the nominal resort to get a better life for herself , it makes too much sense that Mook would manipulate Gaitok to achieve her desire goal . This would be suitably heartbreaking for both us audience appendage and Gaitok as it would invalidate their intact connection by proving Mook used benignity and Gaitok ’s feelings for her as a means to a dark remainder .

Why Would Mook Be Working With Valentin & His Friends Against The Resort?

If this theory were to come honest , the one burn question that would need to be answered is why Mook is working against The White Lotus at all . As I have touch to , it has already been implied that Valentin and his booster were the masterminds behind the looting inThe White Lotusseason 3 , episode 2 , begging the question of where Mook fits into things . She could have told Valentin to distract Gaitok and told him how to do so , but this does not inevitably explicate why she would do it .

The potential plot line about Mook wanting a good life is beneficial enough need , but her links to Valentin have been nonexistent in the show thus far . The two have not been evidence to interact once , but it could certainly be a openhanded twist that they have a human relationship or at least a mutual end that they are planning in secret . If so , The White Lotusseason 3 ’s sweetest storyline is certain to implode sooner rather than later .
