Jacob Elordi described his character Nate Jacobs' on-screen death as a cool way to go. The episode aired on May 24, 2026, and showed Nate buried alive before a fatal snake bite.
Nate was placed in a coffin by Naz as collateral for a debt owed to the gangster. Cassie attempted to raise the money while a pipe supplied oxygen to Nate. A snake entered the pipe and bit him, leading to his death in episode 7 of season 3. Naz was later shot by Alamo in the same episode. Jacob Elordi appeared in 23 episodes across the series run. He noted the scene felt peaceful inside the coffin but added that snakes rattling were alarming. The actor said production ensured safety with oxygen flow and limited time in the box. The season 3 finale is scheduled for May 31, 2026.
