The Mike White touch: When Piper argues to Tim that he and Victoria did not really raise their children to be religious, Tim lapses into a reverie about his days as an altar boy, then softly sings “Lo How a Rose E’er Blooming” to himself.

A full moon party hits Mike White's HBO series, with major developments for multiple characters in 'The White Lotus' Season 3, Episode 5.

The White Lotus creator Mike White previously said that the third season will focus on spirituality, but it’s only in episode 5 that this theme really starts to appear.
