Sam Nivola on ‘The White Lotus’ Finale, That Blender Scene and Lochlan’s Shattered Relationship With Saxon


Sam Nivola on 'The White Lotus' finale, filming Lochlan's near-death scene and that blender.

In the Season 3 finale of “The White Lotus” dear, sweet, people-pleasing Lochlan Ratliff ( Sam Nivola) nearly ended his vacation a day early after he downed a smoothie filled with fruit from the “suicide tree” outside his family’s palatial villa. Mike White, the show’s creator, has planted the seeds for Lochlan’s ill-fated attempts to pack on some muscle from the very first episode, when hotel worker Pam (Morgana O’Reilly) warned the family to avoid the poisonous fruit that was growing just outside their front door. Lochlan’s resurrection is good news for Timothy, who was responsible for almost killing his son after he whipped up some lethal cocktails (ingredients: rum, pina colada mix and the aforementioned poison fruit), but thought the better of it at the last minute as they sipped, knocking their glasses out of their hands while lamely explaining that the “coconut milk is off.”
