Jason Isaacsisn’t leaving anything to the imagination.
The fourth episode ofThe White Lotusseason 3 showsIsaacs’ character Timothy Ratliffspiraling over the FBI investigation into his multi-million dollar business back home in South Carolina.

When the family’s country club comes up in conversation, Isaacs is reminded of how many people likely know about his legal drama, and he leans back in despair. That’s when his robe fallswideopen, flashing everyone.
“Dad!” the children scream while Posey’s Victoria (who is growing suspicious about her missing pills) and Schwarzenegger’s Saxon laugh it off.
Unfazed, Timothy simply ties the robe up and exits the room while his onscreen family — and the audience at home — are left shocked.
Since the first episode, the Ratliffs protested the practices of the Thai wellness resort, frustrated about the lack of cell service and abundance of family time. Viewers soon learn that Isaacs’ character is in trouble with the law and could lose all his money, and he begins to break down.

“[Creator]Mike [White]told us to go watchSouthern Charm,” the 21-year-old actor shared at the time. “In fact, Jason Isaacs, who played our dad, kind of modeled his whole accent and character off of [that cast].”
Nivola then poked fun at Hook, who didn’t have to participate in the pre-production homework because she “had it down” already after being raised in the South.
“I’m from Alabama,” she noted. “I found out through you guys. I was like, ‘He didn’t tell me to watchSouthern Charm!I’m feeling left out.’”
