The White Lotus fans have not held back when sharing reactions to Patrick Schwarzenegger's character and his bizarre storyline.
Patrick - who is of course the son of Terminator legend Arnold Schwarzenegger - stars in season three of the HBO series as Saxon Ratliff, one of three children belonging to the wealthy Ratliff parents, played by Jason Isaacs and Parker Posey.
We're only on the second episode of following the exploits of the guests at The White Lotus hotel in Thailand, but fans are already feeling a little creeped out by the Schwarzenegger's character.

In the first episode fans were left baffled when Saxon referred to his younger sister Piper (Sarah Catherine Hook) as 'hot' and shared his opinions on her sex life. If that wasn't enough, he also stripped naked in-front of his younger brother Lochlan (Sam Nivola) and inquired about his preferences in pornography before heading off to the bathroom to masturbate.
As you do.
And if you were hoping the uncomfortable interactions between Saxon and his younger siblings were just a one-off, then we have some bad news for you, as episode two brought even more bonkers incest moments.
In one scene Lochlan could be seen looking at his brother's bare behind while he slept, while Saxon could also be seen getting a hard-on during a massage.
He then complained to his mother about the massage not including a 'happy ending'.
Who knows where the next six episodes will take us...
Fans wasted no time in sharing their thoughts on the storyline or the siblings' creepy relationships either.
"The minute he appeared on screen I knew the oldest brother was creepy and the vibe is still going," one viewer wrote on X.
"Incest storyline in The White Lotus now what the hell," a second added, while others noted that the whole family seemed dodgy.

"The dad on the run from the FBI and is broke, the mom is splurging their money and the incest siblings are at it," a third viewer noted.
"Girlies this wealthy family is mess. The mom is so high on drugs that she has no idea what reality, the older brother is a creep and the siblings have a whole incest relationship going on and the dad is caught up in some legal issue," a fourth added.
However, it's worth remembering that bonkers storylines and The White Lotus often go hand-in-hand, as another viewer said all of the guests had left them feeling stressed out.
"Everytime [sic] on The White Lotus is stressing me out. The incest family. The homoerotic female friend group. The evil sugar daddy. EVERYONE," they wrote.
Meanwhile Schwarzenegger has opened up about parts of the storyline he's able to relate to in his own life — although thankfully not the incest plot.
“There was a storyline that I related to, and resonated with, of living in the father's shadow," he said.
"I wouldn't say they're directly the same as mine, but there are definitely elements of it that I could draw upon."
