Why Did The White Lotus Season 3’s Lochlan Use Dirty Blender for Protein Shake? Sam Nivola Reveals Truth

Why did Lochlan mix his protein shake using a filthy blender, which came close to causing him harm? Actor Sam Nivola, who portrays Lochlan, recently appeared on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon on April 6th to shed light on this curious incident.

Jimmy Fallon got right to the heart of the matter: “What’s up with creating a shake from a grimy blender?” Nivola burst into laughter and confessed that he had likely been posed this question around a thousand times in the 12 hours since the finale was broadcast on HBO.

Nivola expressed that his character believed the blender wasn’t harmful since he assumed Saxon had prepared a protein shake in it. He thought it was simply leftover protein, so he figured, “Why not? A bit more protein can’t do any harm.” He doesn’t consider himself overly foolish.

As Sam Nivola stated, Lochlan placed faith in his elder brother, Saxon, portrayed by Patrick Schwarzenegger. This trust made him think the blender was secure, despite its being unclean. Moreover, Nivola emphasized that it was largely due to the confidence he held in his brother.

Despite Nivola’s clear explanation, some spectators remain perplexed. If Lochlan had been consuming Saxon’s smoothies routinely, wouldn’t he have recognized that this particular one tasted or smelled unusual? The poisoned smoothie wasn’t simply leftover protein; it was the residue of a piña colada spiked with spoiled coconut milk.

As an ardent admirer, I’ve often pondered over the intriguing plot twist: why didn’t my beloved character, Timothy Ratliff (played brilliantly by Jason Isaacs), clean the blender after concocting that lethal drink? His oversight almost led to a catastrophe, a calamity that could have been easily averted with a quick rinse.

In White Lotus Season 3, the actions that appeared reminiscent of typical adolescent recklessness were intended to portray a misunderstood instance of misplaced trust. Lochlan assumed his brother had prepared the drink, and there seemed no reason for him to doubt it.
