TheWhiteLotus Season 2 doubles down on the question: does anyone have a good marriage?
It's safe to say that HBO's hit series The White Lotus has its fair share of unique takes and stances. Of all the things you could call this unusual series, though, “hopeful” really isn’t one of them. As The White Lotus weaves through the myriad storylines in its second season, among the many echoes of its first, there's one in particular that sticks out.
Throughout the season, Harper is consistently hyper-focused on proving that Daphne and Cameron’s marriage is not as happy as it seems, and thereby, in her eyes, further validating her own. In fact, when she discovers some of the underlying darkness in Daphne and Cameron’s relationship, she tells Ethan, “They have a twisted relationship, and we are fine. Compared to them, we are fine.
In the fifth episode, "That's Amore," Harper confides in Daphne about her suspicions that their husbands are having affairs. Daphne seems entirely unconcerned and reveals that she has affairs, as well, before suggesting that Harper do the same, saying "do whatever you have to do to make yourself feel better." Ultimately, when dealt the same cards, Daphne seems content, while Harper is distraught.
