Madames et messieurs, hey welcome to the stage: Justin Kirk doing a funny little voice!
Justin Kirk doing a funny little voice, everybody!
(You see, unlike his interview subjects, Daniel prefers his food non-wriggling.)
Its comforting to know that, in this universe, even humans speak like this.
Unless hes not human.
But he doesappearto be firmly anti-vampire.
You were tracking 900 of them a month ago.
Were tracking 1,600 now.
I dont even know if were three minutes into the episode yet.
Did you get that all down?
Armand was sent by the Roman coven (Volturi crossover event?)
He refers to this as having tolerated his presence, but Armands not fooling us.
The loneliness you feel, he will not reach it, Armand says.
He doesnt get your humor like I do.
(Okay, not the second part, just making sure youre paying attention.)
Armand tells Lestat to live among his own kind.
And give up my patterned waistcoat?
Live as a grub?
Why would Lestat trade his Dyson Airwrap for a basement apartment?
Before Lestat even notices Nicky on the ground, hes intoxicated by the power on display.
So Lestat stomps into Coven HQ carrying a giant crucifix as a statement piece.
The statement: God is dead, but so are we, so lets go be gods.
Whittled by the simple for the simple.
He storms out with dying Nicky slung over his shoulder.
Hes the whole Enlightenment in one guy.
I dont think this is the last well see of him.
after decades in a controlling relationship.
Zaman and Andersons chemistry is absolutely electric in the scene of them walking along the Seine.
As inSartre?!?
!I think theyre implying thats Sartre!!!
Its impossibly good, silly shit.
Louis snaps and admits that he and Claudia killed Lestat because he fucking had it coming.
Its heartbreaking to think about how closely she must have been guarding those thoughts from him.
That will be her role in the theater troupes new play.
Across town, Armand raises a sewer grate as Louis braces for beheading.
This wasnt a death march; Armand was just walking Louis home.
A century or so ago.
What is time to a vampire?
They kiss and Louis invites him upstairs.
And that, kids, is the story of How I Met Your Maitre.
Although, that could be very Mossad.
I wish, Raglan James answers.
Id be better funded.
Is this theIWTVwriters rooms way of sneaking in some commentary about the IOF?
Or is he just pale because hes a vamp, too, somehow?
Book readers: Dont spoil me on this.
Michelin fish in the desert sounds like a George Saunders book.
The way Armand pronounces Amazon like Amazn.
I was really tickled by Santiago going, Thank you three!
while getting ready before the show.
Also tickled to learn that vampires are susceptible to springtime airborne allergies.
Who knew they could sneeze?
Strong Charlie Kelly vibes emanating off of this one.
Show me the only way you know how to love!
God, these bloodsuckers can be so dramatic!
Jacob Anderson broke me a bit with: Dont give up on her.
Tell her shes beautiful.
Tell her that every morning.
More shows need these levels of insane specificity.
Santiagos arms!!
