The White Lotus

monition ! This article contains spoilers for The White Lotus time of year 3 , instalment 4 .

The main dupe ofThe White Lotusseason 3 remains shrouded in mystery story thus far , but the show ’s first four episode have win over me it will not be Jason Isaacs ' Timothy Ratliff . Theending ofThe White Lotusseason 3 , episode 4seemed to provide the grown hint towards this time of year ’s climactic slaying yet . Although previous episodes delved deep into the secrets and mysteries that each appendage ofThe White Lotusseason 3 ’s casthas hidden beneath the surface and how they could spiral into force , episode 4 ostensibly provided the slaying weapon system .

This came in the form of a throttle given to security department guard Gaitok . AfterTimothy Ratliff’sWhite Lotuscrimescame to illumination , it was heavily implied that he stole the gun . It is admittedly unclear what Timothy intend to utilize it for - if , indeed , he did slip it and this scene was not a red herring - but it will belike fix the event of the premiere in motion , which sawThe White Lotusseason 3 ’s faceless victimfall prey to several gunfire . Regardless , I am convinced that Timothy is not the drained character , specially after episode 4 .

ThroughoutThe White Lotusseason 3 ’s four episodes so far , I can not deny that Timothy ’s expiry has become increasingly likely in equivalence to the premiere . After all , his money - laundering , fraud , and peculation schema fall to Christ Within , making it seem as though Timothy would face a drab circumstances . At first , that fate could be attributed to animation in prison , peculiarly with his co - plotter Kenny Nguyen cooperating with the FBI and giving them selective information on Timothy ’s role . AfterThe White Lotusseason 3 , sequence 4 , hints pointed at an even darker finish for Timothy .

It is easy to miss , but Ke Huy Quan actually had a cameo in The White Lotus season 3 , instalment 2 , and his character is significant to Timothy ’s downfall .

One reason for this link to Timothy ’s married woman , Parker Posey ’s Victoria Ratliff inThe White Lotusseason 3 . Since Timothy ’s scandal became unearth , he has set out take his wife ’s pills . Victoria is shown to have a substance vilification trouble herself , which has now go by onto Timothy and will in all probability only make him more erratic . Then there was the conditional relation that Timothy steal Gaitok ’s ordnance , which , when combined with an unclear , drug - addled brain , is a recipe for catastrophe . All of this could suggest that Timothy will beThe White Lotusseason 3 ’s dupe , but I am not so certain .

One Line Makes Me Think Tim Won’t Die In The White Lotus

The White Lotus Makes Timothy’s Death Slightly Too Obvious

Despite all of these teases that Timothy could cease up dead inThe White Lotusseason 3 , one transmission line from him in episode 4 makes me recall otherwise . When Timothy is on the phone with his lawyer , he is shown trying to find a way out of his predicament . However , he is told there is no direction out and that his adept pick is to plead hangdog and make a wad with the authorities . This notably see red Timothy , who states he is not willing to do so , given the ramifications it could have on his business and his family .

At the terminal of the call , Timothy says he would rather die than face the legal consequences of his actions . It is this line that makes me think Timothy will escape decease inThe White Lotusseason 3 . For one , it would be more narratively satisfying for Timothy to actually go to prison . There are not manylikableThe White Lotuscharacters , and Timothy is sure enough not one of the few , entail his taking accountability would be more rewarding from a viewer ’s perspective .

If Timothy was go to decease inThe White Lotusseason 3 , he in all likelihood would not speak aloud his decease wish , as it seems too obvious …

Moreover , if Timothy was run short to choke inThe White Lotusseason 3 , he likely would not speak aloud his death wish , as it seems too obvious . Setting up the possibility that Timothy could die as overtly as this means that , only by the jurisprudence of story social organisation , it is unlikely to be him who faces an premature ending by the time the time of year is over . Due to this one line from Timothy inThe White Lotusseason 3 , instalment 4 , I am positive he will see out the season .

Tim Taking The Gun Has Happened Too Early For It To Be What Kills Him

The Finale Of The White Lotus Season 3 Is Still A Way Off

Another ingredient as to why I think Timothy will surviveThe White Lotusseason 3 is how early he has stolen the gun . While it could be let on that Timothy did not take the ordnance and that someone else - same Walton Goggins ' Rick - stole the weapon instead , the former having done so would simply be too other . IfThe White Lotusseason 3 only had five episodes and the quaternary stop with Timothy swiping the gun , I would be more convinced that either he was this time of year ’s dupe or potentially even the culprit of the shot teased in the premiere .

The victim ofThe White Lotusseason 3 will follow the destruction of Armond and Tanya in seasons 1 and 2 , respectively .

However , The White Lotusseason 3 is the longsighted yet , with eight episodes . This means that we are only halfway through the story . The White Lotusseason 3 , instalment 5is not the finale of the show , and there are still three more episodes beyond that . If Timothy and the gunman he was imply to have stolen were going to be link to the dreary fate suggest at inThe White Lotusseason 3 ’s cold outdoors , he would have been shown to take the weapon much closer to the ending of the story .

rather , there are still four episodes that could see the gun encounter a new owner . It would not be uncommon for a show likeThe White Lotusto introduce the actual murder weapon this early but then have it change hand a few timesso that audience do not know where it will terminate up . This seems the most likely futurity for the heavy weapon precede inThe White Lotusseason 3 , episode 4 , intend it is incredibly unlikely to remain with Timothy for four more episode before it is used to take his life .

If Not Tim, Then Who Will Die In The White Lotus Season 3?

If Timothy is notThe White Lotusseason 3 ’s dupe , as I am certain he will not be , the query twist back to who will encounter a grim end . Chelsea ’s bad prodigy inThe White Lotusseason 3have provided hints that she could be this time of year ’s victim , but , like Timothy ’s story , these vamp seem to have come too early and too obviously to make her a practicable nominee . Perhaps the most likely dupe at this head is Belinda , one of the two refund characters from premature seasons ofThe White Lotus , the other being Greg / Gary .

Greg ’s surprising return in   The White Lotus   season 3 raises all sort of dubiousness after he should be in prison for try on to shoot down Tanya in season 2 .

AfterThe White Lotusseason 3 , episode 4 , Belinda seems a likely dupe . She now be intimate of Tanya ’s dying fromThe White Lotusseason 2 and that Greg is involve somehow , with Greg knowing that Belinda is on to him . This prepare the two on a collision form , with Greg ’s previously sinister architectural plan tease a speculative ending for Belinda . To impart vilification to injury , The White Lotusseason 3 , episode 1 confirmed that it is Zion , Belinda ’s son , who finds this season ’s drained body , potentially pose up a tragic ending to one of the show ’s rare lovable characters .
