Just a few hours have passed since the conclusion of season 3 of Mike White’s satirical comedy, The White Lotus, which critiques the wealthy. Enthusiastic fans, who eagerly anticipated the extravagant finale, are grappling with the shocking deaths of several beloved characters, as well as the unfortunate outcomes for others they believe warranted such fates. Explore some of the most amusing memes that emerged on X (formerly known as Twitter).

*Spoilers for The White Lotus S3 ahead*

The tragic deaths

The dramatic conclusion featured the deaths of Rick Hatchett (Walton Goggins) and his young partner Chelsea (Aimee Lou Wood), with Rick initiating a shootout that ultimately led to Chelsea's demise. It is an understatement to assert that viewers were displeased with Chelsea's fate, which stemmed from Rick's unaddressed trauma.

In response to a scene from the popular series How to Get Away with Murder, where Annalise Keating fights to rescue Bonnie, one fan commented, “Me trying to save Chelsea through my screen #TheWhiteLotus.”

One individual shared a meme featuring a woman retrieving a snack from her top with an expression of indifference, accompanied by their opinion: “If Rick truly cared for Chelsea as deeply as she cared for him, he would never have placed her in that situation. He wouldn’t have taken her on that trip at all, and I firmly believe that. People tend to idealize these scenarios too much. Wake up! #TheWhiteLotus.”

The best friends

Kate Bohr (Leslie Bibb), Laurie Duffy (Carrie Coon), and Jaclyn Lemon (Michelle Monaghan) portrayed friends who found themselves in conflict during what was intended to be a peaceful vacation, ultimately reconciling by the end of the series.

One viewer shared a video of Laurie fleeing the scene as soon as the gun was drawn during the shootout, commenting, “Laurie exemplifying the true spirit of a New Yorker; if this was deliberate, it might be the most clever writing seen in a television show in quite some time! #TheWhiteLotus.”

One individual shared a meme from Sex and the City that alluded to Laurie’s heartfelt monologue, which depicted the friends reconciling. They humorously commented, “Carrie Coon, MAGA, and actress after a week of backstabbing and gossiping about one another #TheWhiteLotus.”

The Ratliffs

Timothy Ratliff (portrayed by Jason Isaacs) dedicated the entire season to concealing his legal and financial difficulties from his wife Victoria (played by Parker Posey) and their children Saxon (Patrick Schwarzenegger), Piper (Sarah Catherine Hook), and Lochlan (Sam Nivola). Throughout the season, he also contemplated the possibility of a murder-suicide as a means to escape his troubles.

In a post featuring a meme about Timothy's persistent thoughts of death throughout the season, only to ironically survive until the end, one user on X commented, “Tim during the whole season just to be alive at the end #TheWhiteLotus #WhiteLotus.”

One individual humorously remarked on Lochlan's near-fatal experience in the finale involving a contaminated blender, stating, “Regardless of Lochlan's ignorance about the poisoned drinks, he is still utilizing a filthy blender that was left on the counter overnight with coconut milk inside it #TheWhiteLotus.”

Certain fans expressed their desire to witness Victoria's response upon learning about her financial situation, stating, "We were deprived of the opportunity to see Victoria's reaction to discovering her lack of funds. We deserved one more iconic moment!"

The others

Throughout the season, memes circulated regarding the outrageous theories surrounding Thidapon Mook Sornsin (Lalisa Manobal), ultimately revealing her desire for financial security from Gaitok (Tayme Thapthimthong). The conclusion of Belinda's (Natasha Rothwell) storyline, along with her son Zion (Nicholas Duvernay) and Gary/Greg’s (Jon Gries), also elicited laughter from many viewers.

One fan humorously shared a well-known Beyoncé meme, captioning it, “Me when Zion requested 5 MILLION dollars from Greg/Gary #TheWhiteLotus.”

Another individual commented, “Belinda departs from Thailand after enduring a mass shooting, now with an additional $5 million in her bank account #TheWhiteLotus.”

Joking about Gaitok getting a promotion for stopping a shooter that had already caused damage, one X user wrote, “Gaitok driving away with his promotion after being terrible at his job and threatening to quit all week .”

People also thought Mook yo-yo-ing about her feelings for Gaitok was hilarious, “Mook after hearing Gaitok wants to quit and be a brokie to then getting promoted to Sritala’s bodyguard all in one day #TheWhiteLotus.”

To sum it up

Fans of The White Lotus seemed to go through a lot of emotions after the finale aired. “I don’t know about anybody else, but I feel unfulfilled. #TheWhiteLotus #WhiteLotus,” wrote one fan who posted a Tanya (Jennifer Coolidge) meme.

Another posted a meme of a phone being thrown away, writing, “Chelsea dead. Rick dead. Rick killed his father. The ratliff family still alive. Belinda doing pornchai like how tanya did her. The trio back together and yet somehow Greg is still alive-#WhiteLotus #TheWhiteLotus.”

One X user summed it all up with a Peaky Blinders meme, “Yeah #TheWhiteLotus finale was not satisfying at all.. predictable ending all around. Chelsea’s fate just goes to show what happens when a beautiful woman devotes herself to a raggedy old fart like Rick.”

All episodes of The White Lotus seasons 1, 2 and 3 are available to stream on JioHotstar.
