The White Lotus Season 3 Episode 7 Ending Explained: How It Sets Up The Finale
The ending of The White Lotus season 3, episode 7 brought many plot points to a head, teasing an explosive finale for all major storylines.
As for the shooting, Rick got rid of his gun inThe White Lotusseason 3, episode 7after being unable to kill Jim, meaning the shooting can only happen from the gun in Gaitok’s possession. Based on the setup,he could be chasing down the Russians who orchestrated the robbery, tying into his conversation with Mook (Lalisa Manobal) about lacking a “killer instinct” in the latest episode. However, that doesn’t mean he’s the culprit, either, as anything could happen based on whose possession the gun falls into during the final hour.
