Disclaimer: Spoilers for The White Lotus Season 3 Episode 4 ahead!

The White Lotus Season 3 has been building up to a tense situation between Greg and Belinda, and Episode 4 shows that Greg is willing to do a lot to keep his secrets safe. Fans were surprised to see Greg again after his messy story in Season 2, where he was connected to Tanya’s death. Now, Greg—or "Gary," as he calls himself—lives in Thailand near the White Lotus resort, trying to leave his past behind. However, Belinda’s return complicates things.

In this episode, Belinda finds out who Greg really is and that the police want to talk to him about Tanya's death. Greg gets worried when he sees Belinda’s son, Zion, in her social media pictures. He thinks Zion could be a way to keep Belinda quiet. This makes the plot more intense because the first scene of Season 3 showed something dangerous happening near where Zion was meditating.

Here’s what happens: Belinda confirms Greg’s identity through an online search. Then, Greg starts watching Belinda's social media closely, focusing on Zion. He might use Zion to stop Belinda from saying anything about his past. This could mean anything from blackmail to something much worse.

Since the season started with a dramatic shootout close to Zion's meditation spot, the tension has been building. Now, with Greg's secrets in danger and Zion in the mix, The White Lotus fans are worried about what might happen next.


Greg needs to hide his identity on The White Lotus

In The White Lotus Season 3, Greg has been living a secret life by hiding in plain sight. He uses Tanya's money to build a new identity as "Gary." He's good at not getting caught. Even when Belinda and other hotel guests get suspicious, he denies who he really is. But now, Belinda finds out something incriminating about him from the internet, making him worry that she'll expose his secret.

Greg is a classic con artist, much like those in true crime shows. He's good at charming people, lying, and even using violence to stay hidden. We saw this in Season 2 when he might have worked with Quentin’s group to kill Tanya.

Now that Belinda has information that could ruin him, he starts looking into her private life. It seems like he's planning something to keep her from talking.

What Greg does in Episode 4—such as watching Belinda's son online—shows he's getting desperate. He’s acting like a predator, looking for the best way to keep her quiet. It's clear he has a bigger, darker plan in mind.


The White Lotus: Could Greg be planning to harm Belinda’s son, Zion?

The end of Episode 4 suggests that Zion will play a big role in Greg’s story. Greg seems to know that Zion is Belinda’s weak spot. Fans have different theories about what Greg might do next. One possibility is that he might bribe Belinda by offering help for Zion’s education or the health center she mentioned. But considering Greg’s past, something more sinister seems likely.

Greg has already shown that he’s comfortable letting others do his dirty work. In Season 2, he left Tanya in Italy and let Quentin’s group attempt to kill her. If he follows this pattern, he might not go after Zion himself but could orchestrate an accident or hire someone to scare Belinda. The start of Season 3 shows Zion hearing gunshots at the hotel, which could indicate that Greg is trying to harm him. This would fit with Greg’s desperate need to keep Belinda from exposing his past.

We still don’t know what will happen to Greg. Will Belinda expose him before he does something terrible? Or will Greg continue to cover his tracks? Fans will have to keep watching The White Lotus as the show builds toward an intense conclusion.


The White Lotus Season 3 is on HBO and Max.
