The White Lotus is seriously heating up, with just two episodes left, and this week fans watched as younger Ratliff brother Lochlan pleasured his older brother Saxon
Fans of The White Lotus have been left mind-blown after noticing a “freaky” detail. It’s linked to the Ratliff brothers, who featured in a weird romp scene that left viewers uncomfortable.
For weeks viewers had been expecting something would happen between the Ratliff boys – Saxon, played by Patrick Schwarzenegger, and Lochlan, played by Sam Nivola. And after a drunken kiss in the previous episode, fans’ worst fears came true in the latest episode when Lochlan pleasured his brother under the covers.
Now, after actor Patrick shared some behind-the-scenes photos, fans have realised an incredible detail, after the brothers struggled to remember what had happened the night before.
In the first photo, shared ahead of episode five, they can be seen shirtless, with Patrick wearing purple and orange striped swim shorts, while Sam wears a floral pair. But in the scenes the next day they had swapped shorts – and also looked worse for wear.
“I just realised the shorts flipped!” one person said on X. Another wrote: “Hold on a second… they ended up in each other’s shorts the next morning.”
A third wrote: “Was wondering why Saxon’s shorts were so f****** tight? That was such a freaky detail.” Another said: “God no this makes it all the creepier.”
Someone else posted: “Ain’t the first time Lochlan been in his brother’s pants.” As another said: “The costume department really said ‘let’s add some spice’.”
Meanwhile, another viewer said: “That’s not the only thing they swapped I fear.” But that wasn’t the only fear to emerge after the episode.
The trailer for episode seven shows Lochlan sitting shirtless on his sister Piper’s bed. He tells her: “I don’t want to give into my dark s***.”
Fans have been speculating what that could be insinuating. They’ve now been left worried for Piper, and that another sibling romp could be on the cards.
“Oh no, Piper and Lochlan in the same bed! No no,” one said. Another wrote: “Hold on, [are] Piper and Lochlan gonna hook up like [to be honest] this weird power trip that Saxon and Piper have over him is odd, like they like him or something.”
Actor Sam Nivola has had his say over the scene between Lochlan and Saxon, defending his character’s weird choices. And while some viewers believe it suggests Lochlan is confused in his sexuality, Sam reckons it’s actually much deeper.
He told Variety: “The thing on the boat is Lochlan’s tragically misguided attempt at being like, ‘So you’re the sex guy. Let’s do something in that realm and try to connect in some way.’ It’s obviously a big swing and a miss.”
