00:00It's an amazing series, you know, and I love it just as much as everyone else loves it.
00:04And, of course, being invited to be a part of it, you certainly want to do it justice.
00:08And you want to be in service of Mike's brilliance, you know.
00:12He's such a master of tone.
00:14And I think that is something that we all, you know, were motivated by.
00:20I think what makes this particular season a little bit different is that, you know, we're in Thailand.
00:27It's the location.
00:29And what's exciting is that we see each of the characters explore Thailand in a way that we haven't seen in previous seasons.
00:36And I think as a result of that, the show actually feels bigger and broader.
00:43And we're seeing kind of the intersection of two different cultures, right?
00:46We see the Western culture with the Eastern culture.
00:49And kind of how they kind of butt up against each other.
00:53And it's kind of haunting and beautiful and funny.
00:56Old friends. Long time friends. Not old.
00:59What happens in Thailand stays in Thailand.
01:02What does that mean?
01:03It means we're not dead yet.
01:05Amen. Amen.
01:06We just were all over the place in Thailand.
01:09We were able to travel and shoot multiple locations.
01:11And in Hawaii, we were kind of really forced to shoot in one location because of the circumstances of quarantine.
01:17And so to have that freedom to really have the characters go off campus and, like, explore the country.
01:25It was really cool to do.
01:27And, you know, the culture there is incredible.
01:30And so I just, it was, I think audiences are going to see that Thailand is a character on the show.
01:36You know, in a way that I feel like the other locations, obviously they're set in these beautiful places.
01:41But Thailand feels like another character on the show.
01:45Our hotel is the best in the world.
01:50At the end of the week, you will be an entirely different person.
02:00To Thailand and a week of new memories.
02:03I was just so excited because I'd loved The White Lotus for the first two seasons.
02:08Like, biggest fan.
02:09I just didn't see where I would fit in it.
02:12I'd be like, what part could I play in this show?
02:16And then I read the audition sites for Chelsea and I was like, oh my God, that might be, this might be it.
02:22This might be the way in.
02:23And so I was just so drawn to Chelsea and Rick's story because it was, like, really different.
02:29I couldn't really compare it to anything that had come before it, which was exciting.
02:33But I just was, I was hooked.
02:36Like, reading the scripts, I was like, I was saying I had a million different guesses of where I thought the ending was going.
02:41I was completely wrong with all of them because he's so good at that.
02:44He's so playful and mischievous.
02:45It's like he wants us to be like, I know what's going to happen.
02:49And then he goes, nope.
02:50So it's just so fun to read.
02:53This place is insane.
02:55We should always live like this.
02:58I'm so happy.
02:59All my babies, all together.
03:02I hope you enjoy Thailand.
03:03We usually go to the Caribbean.
03:07I feel really lucky to be here.
03:09I want to learn everything I can and bring the magic back to Maui.
03:14It's a wellness center.
03:15You should get a facial.
03:16Rick, the lady in the airport thought you were my dad.
03:18Oh my god.
03:19I think that there's a lot of presenting kind of their perfect lives initially.
03:24And then, you know, that starts to kind of chip away as the season progresses.
