We're six episodes into The White Lotus season two. (If you're yet to watch episode six, go watch it immediately and meet us back here.)
The cocktails are becoming more potent, the one-liners even zingier, the simmering tension is reaching a delicious fever pitch, and there are two questions on everyone's mind: who will be murdered and who will do the... murdering?
Ok, quick reminder. In the opening scene of the first episode, Daphne (Meghann Fahy) wades into the water in her designer bikini and stumbles upon a body.
The hotel management is alerted and they hint this isn't the first body they've had to deal with this summer. Yes, we love a summery Sicilian getaway with a dash of murder.
The clues about who will meet their untimely, water-logged end lie in the theme of this season. While the first season was about race and class, season two is clearly about the relationships between men and women and toxic masculinity. Creator Mike White actually told Deadline this season will focus on "sexual politics".
"It definitely feels like White Lotus; the theme is different. It’s not about power dynamics, more men and women, and sexual politics," he told the publication.
With this is mind, I think the murder-ee (?) will be a man and the murderer will be a woman. (Sisters are doin' it for themselves, etc etc). But who knows at this point? Every damn episode I change my mind.
Here are all my theories about what happens in The White Lotus season two finale:
