White Lotus Season 3 (at least that one family):

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

You think Mook is in cahoots with the robbers?bada wrote:I don't really care about the Duke incest family or the three friends that haven't figured out they don't like each other anymore. I'm into Goggins and his toothy girlfriend though...I like the sweet Thai couple (maybe) too.
I don't think so but that's an interesting idea cause she needs something to do besides being cute. I was thinking....what's his name...the bald guy...Greg?? I think he's involved with the robbery. Toothy got a good look at a distinctive piece of jewelry and I think she'll see it again when hanging out with French Canada and get herself into trouble and Goggins will have to decide between getting away with something (whatever he's up too) or helping her and he'll help her cause hot Indian therapist gets through to him. That's all probably too Hollywood for this show but that's where I am today.Simple Torture wrote:You think Mook is in cahoots with the robbers?bada wrote:I don't really care about the Duke incest family or the three friends that haven't figured out they don't like each other anymore.

They kind of quickly showed the back of the passenger in the car when the thief beat up cute Thai security guard and he seemed Greg?-ish but could be wrong.Simple Torture wrote:Yeah that lingering shot of the bracelet certainly meant something.
In episode 1 Mook was seen talking to the private security guys, who drove a black SUV similar to the robbers, and she could certainly give them inside info about the resort.
Greg?? has so much money from what’s-her-name’s death that I don’t think he’d need it, per se, but maybe it’s for the thrill. He was in deep with the gays last season, I feel like he’s probably running from that.
I like it if it worksSimple Torture wrote:My favorite thing I read all week was a theory that the monkeys were firing the guns in the first episode.
