Things at “The White Lotus” continued to trickle along this week, in that way only Mike White knows how to pull off… until they ramp up considerably. Here’s a recap of episode 4: After that unfortunate armed robbery incident, guard Gaitok gets a handgun from management to help beef up security at the resort. He has no experience or training handling a firearm though (we see just how sorely he needs it by the end of the episode), and is instructed to go to the gun range to learn how to use it. Timothy’s stealthy pill-popping continues – dry-swallowing two in a row and eventually outright stealing his wife’s entire stash – to the point where he can barely stand. Later on, he gets his phone back and speaks with his lawyer, which was probably a bad idea since he realizes just how bad things are back home: Tim is going to lose everything, even his house, and will most likely go to jail. “What am I supposed to tell my family, we’re f**kin’ poor now?” he says, panicked, before he starts to retch. It’s at this point that his and Gaitok’s storylines collide, since Timothy is speaking on his phone outside the security gate… where Gaitok left the gun out, unattended, while he walks with the lovely Mook back to the main resort area. When Gaitok returns, the gun is missing, of course. Meanwhile, our trio of blond girlfriends scheme to get off the White Lotus property – led by Jaclyn obviously, who wants more of a “vibe” – but the notion backfires in a big way when they first end up at a nearby retirement resort which she does NOT like. Then they get soaked in a massive water fight on the street, which is an actual thing that happens in Thailand as part of new year celebrations, as it happens.
