Season 3, which premiered on Feb 16, is set in Thailand and, once again, proves that there is nothing more dangerous than a group of bored, upper middle-class Westerners seeking mental wellness.

This time, viewers meet the Ratliff family, headed by the patriarch, financier Timothy (Jason Isaacs), wife Victoria (Parker Posey) and their three children — the alpha male Saxon (Patrick Schwarzenegger), the people-pleaser Lochlan (Sam Nivola) and Piper (Sarah Catherine Hook), a teenager who believes that Eastern spirituality will fix her inner problems.
