The White Lotus Season 3 is only two episodes in, and the list of underlying tensions is already growing nicely.
The latest, and perhaps most intriguing, to add to the mix? The strange interaction between Victoria (Parker Posey) and Kate (Leslie Bibb) at breakfast.
So what exactly happens, and what might it mean? Let's recap.
SEE ALSO: 'The White Lotus' Season 3: Why is Tanya's husband Greg at the hotel? What happens between Victoria and Kate in Season 3, episode 2?During breakfast, Kate breaks away from her friends Laurie and Jaclyn (Carrie Coon and Michelle Monaghan) to approach the Ratliff family and address Victoria. They have the following exchange, which quickly goes from awkward to even more awkward:
Kate: "Do you know Claire Popovich?"
Victoria: "Yes, I do."
K: "You and I were at a baby shower in Austin together! Kate Bohr. Claire is one of my great friends in Austin and yeah, we spent a weekend together! Hi!"
V: "Yes."
K: "But, do you remember meeting me?"
When Kate gets back to her table, Jaclyn says, "I don't think she remembers you." Kate's response? "We spent a whole weekend together. I mean, a whole weekend. Am I not memorable?"
Meanwhile, back at the Ratliff family's table, Victoria's son Lochlan (Sam Nivola) calls his mom out for being rude to Kate.
"Oh please, what does she want from me? We met at a baby shower 10 years ago. I mean, so what? Who cares?" is Victoria's response. "I'm on vacation with my family. I don't know her."
Credit: Fabio Lovino / HBO Why doesn't Victoria like Kate?If there's one thing we know about The White Lotus, it's that conversations like this aren't throwaways. Victoria's reaction to Kate is likely going to be significant to the plot in some way. So the big question is, why is she so rude and dismissive?
Realistically, there are only three possibilities: 1) Victoria is embarrassed about something Kate may know about her, possibly through their mutual friend; 2) Victoria has been given some information about Kate from their mutual friend that has led to her not wanting to associate with Kate; or 3) Victoria has fallen out with their mutual friend, and doesn't want a reminder.
At this stage, any of those things seems possible. We just don't have enough information to make a more specific guess about what's gone on. But this is definitely one of those interactions that'll be worth filing away for later. Maybe the name Claire Popovich will become significant further down the line.
The White Lotus is streaming now on Max, with new episodes dropping weekly.

Google is shaking up its two-factor authentication system in Gmail.
In an exchange with Forbes, a Google spokesperson confirmed that the company is working on ditching SMS text messages as a form of account authentication in Gmail. For years, this has been one of the main ways to gain access to a Gmail account; you just enter your phone number, and then enter the six-digit code Google sends as a text message.
But, as Google puts it, the company will work to replace those with QR codes "over the next few months."
SEE ALSO: Apple Intelligence with Google Gemini integration looks to be coming soonGoogle's stated reasons for doing this are understandable. SMS authentication is subject to phishing scams, and receiving a text message necessarily puts the end user's service carrier in the mix as a middleman. Carriers all have different security practices, and more importantly, are fallible. In other words, there are clear and obvious security risks to having users input codes received as text messages for account authentication, and QR codes would eliminate some of those risks.
There's no firm date for when this change will happen, but look out for it as we roll through 2025.

There's a terrifying new doll on the horror scene, and her name is Jenny Pen.
This bald, eyeless children's puppet is one half of the twisted pair at the heart of The Rule of Jenny Pen, directed by James Ashcroft (Coming Home in the Dark). The other half is retirement home resident Dave Crealy (John Lithgow, Conclave), who wanders the home's halls at night and forces his fellow residents to succumb to Jenny's "rule."
But Crealy finds resistance in one of the home's newest residents, the arrogant Judge Stefan Mortensen (Geoffrey Rush). As Mortensen struggles to recover from a near-fatal stroke, he'll also endeavor to end Crealy and Jenny's reign of tower, since none of the home's oblivious orderlies seem to care. Based on the film's trailer, the resulting conflict is a bloody one, with residents around Crealy and Mortensen meeting bloody ends, and Jenny looming large over it all.
Watch the full trailer above to see Jenny Pen in action, and to see why Stephen King calledThe Rule of Jenny Pen "one of the best movies I've seen [in 2024]."

Researchers at Carnegie Mellon University and Nvidia have developed a system called ASAP, which helps humanoid robots move more like real humans by bridging the gap between simulation and real-world physics. By first learning movements in a virtual environment and then refining them with real-world data, robots can replicate the agility and coordination of legendary athletes like Cristiano Ronaldo and Kobe Bryant. This breakthrough could lead to more capable robots that assist in workplaces, homes, and even high-risk environments, bringing us closer to a future where machines move as naturally as we do.

Elon Musk sent government employees into something of a frenzy over the weekend after posting an ultimatum on X: Federal employees have to send an email saying "what they got done last week" or risk losing their jobs.
"Consistent with President @realDonaldTrump ’s instructions, all federal employees will shortly receive an email requesting to understand what they got done last week," wrote Musk. "Failure to respond will be taken as a resignation."
Tweet may have been deletedAlthough Musk frequently shares disinformation on X, this was apparently no joke. An email went out to federal employees on Saturday, and was confirmed to be authentic (per the BBC) by the government's Office of Personnel Management (OPM).
Of course, sending a mass email out that requests a response was only ever going to end one way: Swift leaking and inevitable trolling. It wasn't long before the apparent response address was leaked on X.
Tweet may have been deletedThe responses themselves weren't far behind.
Tweet may have been deleted Tweet may have been deletedWill any of these emails actually be read by Elon Musk? We can't say for sure, but it seems unlikely he'll be going through them himself. That may not matter to some of the senders, though, some of whom just want to flood the address with as many messages as possible in the hope of making life trickier for Musk's Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE).
Mashable has reached out to the email address posted on X. We've yet to receive any response, but the email itself didn't bounce back, which suggests the address itself is real.

With Meta having recently made the decision to overhaul its Hateful Content policy on Facebook and Instagram — essentially allowing more discriminatory content in the name of free speech — John Oliver decided to take a deep dive.
In the latest Last Week Tonight episode above the host goes through Facebook's problematic history of content moderation, ending with some takeaways on what users can do about it.
"There is one small way you can actually fuck with Meta, and that is by making yourselves a bit less valuable to them. Remember, advertising makes up 98 percent of Meta's revenue, and a key component is them being able to offer companies the ability to micro-target you," says Oliver. "Meta can do that because they track massive amounts of data about not just what you do on their sites, but all across the internet. Which is why they would probably not want me to tell you that you can change your settings so that Facebook and Instagram cannot profit as much from your data anymore.

Opens in a new window Credit: Sony Sony Bravia XR X93L 75-inch 4K Mini LED TV $1,298.00 at WalmartSony’s Bravia XR TVs have a reputation for delivering some of the best picture quality in the business, and the X93L is no exception. This 75-inch Mini LED beauty packs Sony’s Cognitive Processor XR, which means you get incredible brightness, deep blacks, and some of the most accurate colors I’ve ever seen on a consumer display. This TV makes movies, games, and sports look absolutely stunning.
Mini LED technology is the real star here. Unlike regular LED TVs, Mini LEDs allow for precise backlight control, meaning you get high contrast, deeper blacks, and less blooming around bright objects. The XR Backlight Master Drive takes this even further by adjusting thousands of tiny LEDs in real time for a more dynamic and lifelike picture. Pair that with XR Triluminos Pro, and the result is a screen that pops with billions of vivid colors.

Opens in a new window Credit: Sony Sony WH-1000XM5 $282.90 at WalmartI’ve tested a lot of noise-canceling headphones, and I always come back to Sony’s WH-1000X series. The WH-1000XM5 takes everything great about its predecessors and refines it with industry-leading noise cancellation, plush comfort, and ridiculously good battery life. If you fly often or want to zone out in a crowded coffee shop, these headphones do the job better than anything else I’ve used.
Sony’s active noise cancellation blocks out everything from engine hum to chatty coworkers.
