The White Lotus Season 3 episode 7 may have foreshadowed who dies in the finale, here’s how

Akin to the previous installments, The White Lotus Season 3 began with the scene of a dead body. The show then went into flashbacks, showcasing what transpired the previous week, leading to the shooting at the resort.

Ever since the first episode, fans have been eager to find out which hotel guest or staff member will become the victim this season. The identity of the dead body will finally be revealed in the season finale, which is scheduled to be aired on April 6, 2025.

However, the show might have already foreshadowed who will die in the season finale in the penultimate seventh episode, which aired on March 30, 2025. In one of the scenes, Belinda has a conversation with her son, Zion, as she is worried about Greg’s threat. During their discussion, Zion says something that hints at Belinda being the shooting’s victim.

Does Zion foreshadow Belinda’s death in The White Lotus Season 3 Episode 7?

In The White Lotus Season 3 Episode 7, Belinda decides to attend Greg’s house party after being persuaded by Zion. When she reaches the venue, she gets scared for her life as Greg calls her aside for a private conversation.

Instead of threatening Belinda, Greg tries to bribe her by offering her a thousand dollars. While he says he wants to fulfill Tanya’s wish by being generous, he actually wants to buy Belinda’s silence. Following their conversation, Belinda rushes back to her hotel room with Zion, where they contemplate what to do next.

Zion is adamant that Belinda should take the money as it could change their lives. On the other hand, the spa manager is not keen on being complicit in hiding a murder. Zion then grows protective of his mother and asks her to do as Greg wants, knowing how dangerous he could be, and says:

“If you don't come to terms with him, he's gonna come after you. And they're gonna find your body in the Gulf of Thailand. S***, maybe mine too!”

Audiences would remember that in The White Lotus Season 3 Episode 1, Zion had seen a dead body floating in the water after a shootout at the hotel. His dialogue about finding his mother in the Gulf of Thailand could have been an Easter egg about Belinda’s tragic fate in The White Lotus season 3 finale.

Greg is a brutal man who does not shy away from bloodshed to get what he wants. Considering that Belinda knows his dark secret, he could go to any length to keep her silent. As his bribery has not worked, he may resort to violent methods to eliminate Belinda.

On the other hand, Zion’s statement in episode 7 could also be a method used by creators to mislead the audience and keep them guessing until the very end. The White Lotus is famous for its twists and turns, where the least expected characters have died in the previous seasons.

The third season might follow suit and choose a victim that viewers do not see coming. For now, Belinda does seem to be in danger, but her fate remains uncertain. It will be interesting to see if she makes it out alive of The White Lotus Season 3 finale.

The White Lotus Season 3 episode 8 will air on HBO on April 6, 2025.
