Season 2 of TheWhiteLotus shows that Michael Imperoli's Dominic is in the middle of a midlife crisis.
The greatest weapon that The White Lotus has is empathy. It would be easy to simply create caricatures of the upper class and pit them against each other in a sordid spectacle of madness, but The White Lotus has empathy for even its most despicable guests. While many of these characters spout off ignorant phrases and have committed major crimes, they’re forced by the situation to hold themselves accountable for their actions.
Dominic was initially positioned as one of the most unlikeable characters on the show; we know that his womanizing nature led to the end of his relationship with his wife, Abby . Dominic is hoping that the vacation to the luxurious Italian resort will allow him to make amends with his son, Albie , who has grown to detest him. However, “That’s Amore” shows that Dominic is in the middle of a midlife crisis, and genuinely wants to improve himself.
We see the look of shock and fear that crosses Dominic’s face as he attempts to confront Lucia. It’s clear that Dominic is attempting to heal himself during the trip, and he had never considered that Albie might give him something to worry about. His protective nature is heartfelt, as Dominic knows that he’s stepping into dangerous territory. Perhaps, his initial resistance to talking to Albie was because he didn’t want to corrupt his son.
Dominic Is Forced to Confront His Father While Dominic had clearly wanted to make amends with Albie over the course of their stay at the Italian resort, he’s clearly less open about talking to his own father. Dominic’s failures as a parent make sense, as he’s still forced to answer Bert's demands like he’s a reckless teenager. Initially, Dominic wants to pass Bert off as an annoyance that he can stick snoring into Albie’s room overnight.
