Piper Ratliff (Sarah Catherine Hook) would have lost her virginity in the final of season three of season three “The White Lotus”, but the creator Mike White said that the scene was cut because it made the episode too long.
The show finally completed the loop after the brief scene at the beginning, which teased that someone was going to make a shooting in the field of the hotel.
For a moment earlier in the season, it seemed that it would have been the disturbed financier Timothy Ratliff (Jason Isaacs). In the end, he turned out to be Rick Hatchett (Walton Goggins).
The episode almost took another tour for Piper, who had changed his mind on the spending of one year in a Thai monastery. White said he was initially intended for her virginity after making the decision.
“The part that was also cut, what is very disappointing is that she decides to lose her virginity in the scenario in the last episode, and she actually has sex with Zion, the son of Belinda”, he revealed in the episode of “The White Lotus Official Podcast”.

He said it would have happened because his older brother accused him of being a virgin.
“It is like,” it’s true, Saxon is right on this only thing, I need to finish. “After leaving the monastery, she is just like:” I need to have sex. “
White explained that the scene had been withdrawn because the last episode was already too long.
“It was like one of those things where … it’s already an hour and a half, and it would have added 10 minutes to the thing. There was a bit of a romantic atmosphere of Rom-Com in the middle of Timothy Ratliff trying to kill the family with the Pong-Pong fruits,” he explained.
Fans have already criticized the episode, with many memes and jokes on the end which already went around social networks.
Some have said that the addition of this scene would have aggravated the final episode.
Hook also discussed Piper’s scenario during a Q + casting on Sunday in Los Angeles after the final episode was broadcast.
“I said to myself:” WOW. Everyone in this episode really came to illustrations. “And she tries to be enlightened all the time.
Hook added: “I’m ready to be a hoe now. So let’s go. No. No. No, I’m kidding. I don’t know. I’m a troll.”
