Transcript
00:00:00Watch The Vampire Lestat After Dark on AMC Plus or wherever you get your podcasts.
00:00:30I won two pollicers. I'm taking this thing to camp.
00:00:33How did I get you?
00:00:34Sophia.
00:00:35Hello, Sophia.
00:00:37My maker called for his mama and I came.
00:00:40My first paramour, Nicolas Delafont, a violinist.
00:00:43He is sick and safe.
00:00:45He is a sonnier.
00:00:45You are a son of Nicolas, one of us.
00:00:48He's so fragile.
00:00:49There were four pages torn out.
00:00:51It was better when he broke my bones.
00:00:52It was when he had me pinned and he told me he loved me.
00:00:55That fucked me up.
00:00:56We would like you to take care of our problem in Detroit.
00:01:00I believe your Claudia spent a few nights with him once.
00:01:08You are listening to The Failures, album 22, side A.
00:01:13The vainglorious homogeny of the Toronto skyline is something to behold.
00:01:18An onslaught of impractical condominiums dominated by a 147-floor waterpick.
00:01:24Its banality is lost on the polite citizenry of Canada.
00:01:28To them, it's iconic.
00:01:30And what the friends and family of Avery Olsen and Natalie Bokel Hyde confirmed as a must-see
00:01:35when the two planned their honeymoon and waited for Avery's divorce to finalize.
00:01:39Had they stayed within the realities of their budget and consummated their union in their home province,
00:01:44the marriage might have lasted longer.
00:01:47But love born from a speed dating event in Musjo, Sakasachuan merited an unhurried commemoration.
00:01:55Can I offer my assistance?
00:01:56Oh, mercy! Aren't you the angel?
00:02:00Kind of me, sir. Thank you.
00:02:02My pleasure. I know these moments last a lifetime.
00:02:05Just make sure we're not in the center center and that the tower isn't coming out of his head.
00:02:09Hmm, the rule of thirds, the golden mean.
00:02:12And thus, amenities from the Radisson Blue honeymoon package went unused.
00:02:17Exchanged as they were for a vampiric appointment in Samara.
00:02:23Gabriela's divine intervention had raised my raptorial spirits,
00:02:28and I channeled our kills into prurient performances,
00:02:32licking the underside of Lake Erie in Cleveland and Buffalo before rounding the shaft of Lake Ontario.
00:02:42Lover.
00:02:44Where are you?
00:02:46Where are any of us, really?
00:02:48Is that him?
00:02:49Ah, give me that.
00:02:50Hey.
00:02:51Justin Bieber.
00:02:52I got 40 fucking people here with their hands up their asses.
00:02:55Did you misplace something there?
00:02:57I'm done chasing you, bust a coffin.
00:03:00I saved your life.
00:03:01You owe me-
00:03:02Perhaps.
00:03:03I do.
00:03:04I do.
00:03:06I do.
00:03:06We'll be ahead.
00:03:07Mounted above a coven toilet if it weren't for me.
00:03:10Transformational trauma down.
00:03:11It's with Sophia again.
00:03:12What do you know about her?
00:03:13Mystery vagina passed itself by date.
00:03:15What do you mean, perhaps?
00:03:17You assume death at decapitation?
00:03:19A study done in Budapest had two Class B vampires surviving separation for nearly two hours.
00:03:24A vampire of Lestat's breeding could last four to five times if-
00:03:27Chuck's dad has the herps.
00:03:29Daniel Malloy.
00:03:31Delivered unto the world April 16th, 1953, into the arms of his mother in a hospital.
00:03:37I assume it's not something vampires ask one another, the details of their mortal existence.
00:03:41It's considered rude.
00:03:44Nurtured or not nurtured, nudged in San Francisco towards a career of distinction and moderate thing.
00:03:50After the can, Chief.
00:03:51Sorry.
00:03:51Murdered and reborn July 18th, 2022, by the gremlin Armand.
00:03:57He led a brief, incidental life as a vampire.
00:04:02Incidental.
00:04:04Is that the right word?
00:04:06He found me shallow.
00:04:08I gave him every reason to.
00:04:09I have regrets when it comes to death.
00:04:11Oh, sorry, yeah, uh, he's here.
00:04:22Ciao.
00:04:26Oh, hey.
00:04:28Is that on your lip, Yadette?
00:04:30Okay, we're gonna be using a new camera today.
00:04:32It's called an interrotron.
00:04:34I'll be sitting here, but you're gonna see my face in the camera.
00:04:37We will be like we're talking face to face.
00:04:40And, uh, we are shooting this in color and we're gonna anchor it to all the black and white tour
00:04:46footage.
00:04:46Okay?
00:04:48So, you were a stutterer as a child.
00:04:54Evening, Dan. Happy to be here.
00:04:56Could you state your name for the camera, please?
00:04:59I'm the front man, Lestat.
00:05:02The vampire Lestat.
00:05:04I'm immortal, more or less.
00:05:07The light of the sun, the sustained heat of an intense fire.
00:05:11Jefferson Starship.
00:05:13Grot-wielding coven members.
00:05:15These things might destroy me, but there again, they might not.
00:05:20Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:05:24Ha, ha, ha, ha.
00:05:35I'm a little killer.
00:05:37I'm a lonely one.
00:05:39I meant you've broken up to your spine, tellin' you to run.
00:05:43I'm a little chill.
00:05:45I'm a last line.
00:05:47I'm the best of the future, the last of the sutあ.
00:06:49Exactly my thinking.
00:06:51So let's run with this.
00:06:52Let's dig into these songs and see what we get.
00:06:55You have a song, Long Face.
00:06:58The lyrics are...
00:07:05What's the story behind that?
00:07:08Long Face is an agreement between myself and the audience.
00:07:11Permission disguised as anthem.
00:07:13Oh, yeah, we're coming.
00:07:15Yeah, yeah, we're coming.
00:07:17Oh, yeah, I'm coming.
00:07:28I'm an actor in my makeup.
00:07:30I'll get fatter if and when we break up.

00:07:37Black licorice?
00:07:38structure and ritual judged and drained thrilled and shamed left one anymore well that's great

00:12:40Out the door

00:12:47Keep straight five minutes
00:12:49There's a car.
00:12:50Great dog.
00:12:52Don't go back.
00:12:57Eight wolves
00:12:58By yourself
00:13:00Everyone always repeats the number when I say it
00:13:04I had a pistol, a rifle, a dagger, a mastiff
00:13:09The stuttering wolf killer
00:13:11No, that was the first name for our band
00:13:14Hello, Fort Collins
00:13:14We are the stuttering wolf killers
00:13:16Are you ready to rock?
00:13:18From the ages of nine to 29
00:13:21You stuttered
00:13:22I stuttered
00:13:24Yes, and every kill I have made is a response
00:13:27My entire psyche
00:13:28My entire psyche is formed from the deformity
00:13:30It's like being strapped down in a dentist chair
00:13:32Opening your mouth wide
00:13:33Only to have the dentist say
00:13:35I'm not a dentist
00:13:36As he lubes up a thick rubber glove
00:13:37So you be gentle, Dan
00:13:42I think he's just bored by you
00:13:44Try asking him about the great conversion
00:13:48What happened at age nine?
00:13:51Mmm
00:13:54I was taken to see witches being burned at a stake
00:13:58Okay
00:14:00Tell me about that
00:14:03Marguerite Deray, Jeanne Baudin, the twins, Marte and Aimée Roulet
00:14:09Seased their prayers and adored the devil in ceremony, said the torch-bearing priests
00:14:14You remember their names
00:14:17Teenage girls with the resonant voices of men
00:14:20Screaming and thrashing for hours
00:14:22Till their jawbones fell and the devil could sing no more
00:14:25And you were nine
00:14:29That's what moms did with kids before Lego and Peppa Pig
00:14:33Looking back on it now, they were definitely witches
00:14:36The twins, that is Marguerite Deray, Jeanne
00:14:38Probably caught masturbating in a field with a few sick oxen
00:14:42Two for four, it's not bad considering it was a priestly-led sentence
00:14:45What happened at 29?
00:14:49Hmm
00:14:55I heard music
00:14:58So you made it to Paris
00:15:03Eyes closed, mouth distorted
00:15:07What struck my heart was the way that his whole body leaned into the music
00:15:13Had I the ear I have now, I would have found a pedestrian
00:15:16But I was an ape from Auvergne
00:15:19And it sounded like a god machine, played by an angel
00:15:23Oh
00:15:24Ah, merde
00:15:26Take us to Excelsioro next
00:15:28I won't miss
00:15:29Oh, it must be our Mozart raising over all the disturbs
00:15:32Your peace, madame, kindly
00:15:33Piss off
00:15:34This is Nicky who you sing about in your song
00:15:38Why do I have to feel
00:15:44Nicola Delenfant
00:15:47My first love
00:15:49Tell me to piss off again
00:15:51I am finished, madame, I am finished
00:16:02Nicola Delenfant
00:16:06You're a boy
00:16:11You've got a boy
00:16:11No
00:16:12No
00:16:12No
00:16:12No
00:16:13No
00:16:13No
00:16:13No
00:16:13No
00:16:13No
00:16:14No
00:16:15No
00:16:15No
00:16:16No
00:16:16No
00:16:17No
00:16:17Wearing pantaloons.
00:16:22Trying to fit in.
00:16:24You know wolf-line cloak, eh?
00:16:27Good luck with that.
00:16:31What are you doing in Paris?
00:16:36Eight wolves. Impossible.
00:16:41Stuck the heads in the square,
00:16:42the children play hide heads with them.
00:16:45Sounds like our village.
00:16:51It's my father's teaching.
00:16:54He gave it to me before I left.
00:16:57And your address on the Rue de Montmoron.
00:17:00Montmoron, si.
00:17:03I haven't lived there for six months.
00:17:06My father's allowance barely covers the cost of my music instruction,
00:17:10much less rent, food, and the bribes
00:17:14to keep me out of the National Guard.
00:17:16I don't know.
00:17:25Liberty, equality, fraternity.
00:17:29Pity is a treasure.
00:17:38You play beautifully.
00:17:44I play like a tailor's son.
00:17:53Did he say anything else?
00:17:56My dad.
00:18:02He said, um...
00:18:07Tell him I love him.
00:18:09And that I'm proud of him.
00:18:19What did he really say?
00:18:22He said, help him...
00:18:23Help him to be a man.
00:18:26But he said it without this time, love.
00:18:28Hmm.
00:18:33Are you gonna teach me to be a man?
00:18:36A standard man?
00:18:37I don't know.
00:18:42It goes where you think it goes.
00:18:44All the old tropes and trapes of tortured and forbidden love.
00:18:47Blah, blah, blah.
00:18:48Bipolar boy Flynn.
00:18:49Blah, blah.
00:18:49Fast forward.
00:18:52Stop.
00:18:53Vape.
00:18:54Check your phone.
00:18:56Press play.
00:18:57Oh, good.
00:18:57Now he's a vampire.
00:18:58But you're not a vampire.
00:19:00You're the stuttering ape of O'Vern.
00:19:06Any Quebecers here?
00:19:07Tongue twisters.
00:19:08Vocal exercises.
00:19:09Repeated every day for two years
00:19:11while I washed the floors
00:19:13and emptied chamber pots
00:19:14and a job I got through Nicky
00:19:16who worked in the pit there, so...
00:19:18Go pull up the song for him.
00:19:22Why do I have to feel?
00:19:24Oh, I love that song.
00:19:25So, the stuttering.
00:19:26You just bullied it out of yourself.
00:19:28Yeah.
00:19:29Nicky got me the job that cured my affliction.
00:19:31It was first love.
00:19:33Not a great love.
00:19:39Buried yourself in the ground
00:19:41for a century over a not great love.
00:19:43Only thing you carry with you to New Orleans
00:19:46is a music box reminder
00:19:47of a not great love.
00:19:49I carried the box because I destroyed him, Dan.
00:19:52I carried the box to remind me
00:19:54what I was capable of.
00:19:56You perform a song.
00:20:08Can someone do something about this?
00:20:11Quiet on set!
00:20:15Quiet on set!
00:20:16Oh, yeah!
00:20:21Quiet on set!
00:20:22Quiet on set!
00:20:23Oh, yeah!
00:20:34Quiet on set!
00:20:36So, you perform a song every night by your abuser, biggest fan.
00:20:43Abuser.
00:20:44Go pull up the song for it.
00:20:46Liberator, emancipator.
00:20:48Uh-huh, he says, I want to give you everything I've got.
00:20:52I know you're stubborn, but you have to ask for it.
00:20:55Did Magnus ask your permission before transforming you into a vampire?
00:21:01I see it as an unbroken chain of similar songs in pop music.
00:21:06Herman Herman's laying on a lamppost, Every Breath You Take by the Police, I love that one.
00:21:11Eminem Stan.
00:21:12According to Louis, his name was Magnus.
00:21:15He took me from my room in Paris as I kicked and screamed, locked me in a room for a
00:21:22week with corpses.
00:21:23They all look like me.
00:21:25I mean, does that even sound like me, Dan?
00:21:27My coloring, my physique.
00:21:28Where's the awful turn of phrase?
00:21:29Where's the assonance, the euphemy?
00:21:31He fed on me for a week.
00:21:33I thought for sure I'd become one of them, but instead, he turned me into this.
00:21:41Louis was not there when Magnus abducted me.
00:21:44But he was there in New Orleans when you recounted it.
00:21:47And I was not there in Dubai to correct his faulty recall.
00:21:52Yeah.
00:21:55You really caught my eye.
00:22:00I think you're something special, babe.
00:22:04I want to take you out tonight.
00:22:08I think we got real potential, babe.
00:22:13I got a battle of wine.
00:22:17And yeah, that's me at your window, babe.
00:22:21We're going to have such a goddamn good time.
00:22:26I want to be your crescendo, babe.
00:22:30Don't let me catch you crying.
00:22:34Don't tell me the spell is breaking.
00:22:37You're so perfect in that raging light.
00:22:42I know I'm hard to look at sometimes, but I'm here for the taking.
00:22:49I want to give you everything I got.
00:22:53I know you're starting to do after us, but I can tell you everything I'm not.
00:23:01Yeah, I'm a dog and you're my brave little wolf killer.
00:23:09Yeah, I'm a dog and you're my brave little wolf killer.
00:23:17Hmm.
00:23:20I understood my maker.
00:23:23If I had seen 19 straight performances of my Lilio, I would have abandoned all decorum, too.
00:23:29Abandoned decorum, he made you a monster and killed himself in front of you.
00:23:36I was an actor at a second-tier theater squatting in a beheaded nobleman's flat with a severely depressed...
00:23:42Are you still boring, my beauty?
00:23:45How was the kielbasa?
00:23:47Very crafty.
00:23:48And as for the suicide, it gave me a likeness that I would not have known had Eloyed the centuries
00:23:53beside me.
00:23:54I see the burden written on your face, Stan.
00:23:58When I say God, and you say monster, is it your absent but very much alive father walking around that
00:24:06gives you this lowly idea of yourself, son of Armand?
00:24:10Yeah.
00:24:10Who needs another victim song?
00:24:14Exactly.
00:24:15Very rock and roll.
00:24:17Still, it must have been hard keeping that from Nicky.
00:24:21Armand got that part right in my book.
00:24:24He confronted you on the street, abducted Nicky, fed him to his coven, and yet, you hid your vampirism from
00:24:32him.
00:24:32Yeah?
00:24:33Question mark.
00:24:35You're safe.
00:24:37You're in our room in Paris.
00:24:39What am I weak?
00:24:41Delirium took you.
00:24:43I've been your nursemaid.
00:24:45You've been to all company.
00:24:49And this?
00:24:53A rash.
00:24:55The bad on English, typhoid.
00:24:56I saw the doctor you slept through his head.
00:24:58Our favorite game.
00:25:00You lie.
00:25:02And I believe you.
00:25:03Armand lie.
00:25:04A bicycle!
00:25:06Gone out of the window!
00:25:08So nothing unnatural happened!
00:25:11You were down, wearing silk pictures.
00:25:14God, you're a trip patient.
00:25:15Lies on lies on lies.
00:25:17Sudden vanishings.
00:25:19Your change dies.
00:25:23Oh, and your mother.
00:25:26I wish she alive.
00:25:28I brought it to you, rocamadro.
00:25:30Procure a black madonna.
00:25:32Ah, your...
00:25:35What?
00:25:36Your mother?
00:25:40The vampire Gabriela.
00:25:42Blood on her lips, more life!
00:25:46How?
00:25:47What?
00:25:49She followed me to Paris.
00:25:52Her body was ready to die, but her mind was not.
00:25:56My first fledgling.
00:26:00Louis must have told you.
00:26:01No.
00:26:02Hmm.
00:26:03I thought it was discretion that kept her out of your book.
00:26:06Hmm.
00:26:07My love was a small box that I kept him in.
00:26:09No room for the many hours I talked of her, I guess.
00:26:13And...
00:26:14She...
00:26:14Where is she now?
00:26:16She's here right now.
00:26:23Right here.
00:26:24Here.
00:26:29She died.
00:26:32Vampire toddlerdom.
00:26:33Always the hardest years, as you know.
00:26:36Or don't know, Dan.
00:26:38Hmm.
00:26:44What do you think about the great conversion?
00:26:46Oh.
00:26:48The vampire thing.
00:26:50Vampire is taking over the world, collaborating.
00:26:53Hmm?
00:26:55Fucking stupid.
00:26:57Can you get out of my eyeline?
00:27:03Yeah.
00:27:04Yeah.
00:27:04Ha, ha, ha.
00:27:07Three flights up.
00:27:10Your bones would be pieces.
00:27:12What are you?
00:27:13What is she?
00:27:14La versa estufata.
00:27:17Mother.
00:27:17Outside the theater.
00:27:18The ragged man calling wolf killer.
00:27:21Blackened passages and dog-toothed fiends.
00:27:24I'm waiting.
00:27:25You are gibberish.
00:27:27I want to know you in this chain's form.
00:27:30Don't look to her.
00:27:31Don't look to her.
00:27:31Roger has brought you a house on the key.
00:27:34I have opened a bank account in your name.
00:27:36I could move to Adel and Saint Claude.
00:27:38Don't buy me a house.
00:27:39Mother, please.
00:27:42Speaks my thoughts before I speak them.
00:27:46You gave this witchery to her.
00:27:50She was an hour from death.
00:27:52Finally.
00:27:55Admit it.
00:27:59Do you want me to murder you?
00:28:01I want you to love me enough to give it to me.
00:28:16You cannot do it.
00:28:20You mustn't do it.
00:28:29I've driven him mad.
00:28:33I know I'll leave him to this madness.
00:28:35You have used up your affection for him.
00:28:38You know you have.
00:28:41Don't bring him into eternity.
00:28:49Disaster, my son.
00:28:50I'm sorry.
00:28:51I'm sorry.
00:28:52I'm sorry.
00:28:52I'm sorry.
00:28:52I'm sorry.
00:28:53I'm sorry.
00:28:54His playing has greatly improved.
00:28:57I cannot hear the actors over his improvement.
00:28:59Well, I prefer his music to Gustav's acting.
00:29:03Well, you can return to the role anytime you wish.
00:29:06And have your cumbersome words in my mouth again?
00:29:08No, thank you.
00:29:13There are blood drinkers in Italy.
00:29:16Excuse me?
00:29:18There are covens like this one in Roma, Venezia, Salerno.
00:29:23Does Nicola know about us?
00:29:25Us?
00:29:27What is us?
00:29:28Do you think you're the only one in the company he drinks from?
00:29:31Do you think I am the only one with disdain for his fledgling?
00:29:34Take him aside.
00:29:36You're the active manager.
00:29:37Manage.
00:29:38You're his maker.
00:29:39Make him.
00:29:40Is there an evil older than you?
00:29:44You're a maker, Marius.
00:29:45My maker is dead.
00:29:46I've told you that already.
00:29:48Just check.
00:29:51I'll give you the theater of the vampires.
00:29:55The greatest spectacle of the boulevard.
00:30:06He was Jamali Kazamuro.
00:30:08You'll find his way.
00:30:09No, he won't.
00:30:10I believe you.
00:30:12I love you, Lestona.
00:30:14Christ.
00:30:17There's not room enough in this box for your desperation.
00:30:24Has anyone seen a letter opener?
00:30:26You don't need a letter opener, Nicky.
00:30:27We don't get any letters.
00:30:28You want to talk about your recent work in the theater, Nicola?
00:30:31He's not in the chamber pot.
00:30:32I left it there a week ago.
00:30:33You don't like my music, Metro.
00:30:35Well, it's not me.
00:30:37It's my hands.
00:30:38But I don't have my letter opener.
00:30:39I think the music will improve once I find the letter opener.
00:30:44We think you should take some time away from the theater, Nicky.
00:30:52Did you have to decide this in the wings?
00:30:55Huh?
00:30:55Or the box?
00:30:56The Place Dauphine?
00:30:58Last Sunday?
00:30:59The Hotel de Ville?
00:31:01And the Feast of Assumption?
00:31:02And the Night Doctor?
00:31:03Don't stop.
00:31:04Look at me.
00:31:05Look at me.
00:31:08I left it here.
00:31:09I left it here.
00:31:10As I warned, his mind is covered.
00:31:12Two years ago when he opened up a letter from your mother.
00:31:13How dare you open up my letter?
00:31:16He pouted and shouted.
00:31:17I was trying to make the opener happy.
00:31:20I was trying to give it purpose.
00:31:24Here it is.
00:31:39Can you go to the other?
00:31:42I fear I won't be able to with only one now.
00:31:46Can you help him, please?
00:31:49Are you Nicky?
00:31:50No, no.
00:31:51Nicky is on the way to Saint Denis.
00:31:53Stop!
00:31:54Would you point the way?
00:31:55Thank you ever so much.
00:31:56Stop, Nicky!
00:31:57No!
00:32:05It's all a misunderstanding, my love.
00:32:08I wish to serve the God of the Darkwood like the rest.
00:32:12Forgive me.
00:32:13My hands are much older than the rest of me.
00:32:19Forgive me.
00:32:29Gabriela went to Coffin, leaving us and Armand.
00:32:39I told Nicky that I loved him.
00:32:44From the first seconds I saw him in Paris, that I was drunk with his love.
00:32:56I was engulfed by it.
00:32:59Your maker would tell you I was being kind, but...
00:33:04In the moment...
00:33:06In the moment...
00:33:08The words were true.
00:33:14I think...
00:33:22I remember the light.
00:33:26Fireplace...
00:33:28Fireplace...
00:33:29Reflecting golden onto his face.
00:33:34And his...
00:33:36Bare arms.
00:33:42But I would love looking at the world.
00:33:46I could not.
00:33:52I...
00:33:53I...
00:33:57I couldn't do it.
00:34:02But I watched...
00:34:09As Armand...
00:34:11Pushed him into the fire.
00:34:15I made sure he stayed there.
00:34:17I made sure he stayed there.
00:34:19With a poker in his chest.
00:34:30Nicky had a bemused look on his face as he burned.
00:34:34His mouth...
00:34:38Formed into a...
00:34:43Circle.
00:34:46And he made only one sound.
00:34:54Circle.
00:35:01And he made only one sound.
00:35:08Oh...
00:35:11As though he knew...
00:35:14That in death...
00:35:17It was nothing that...
00:35:26I'm angry.
00:35:28I'm angry!
00:35:29Can...
00:35:29Can we get something that...
00:35:31Yeah, okay, we're cutting.
00:35:32We tried booking something called the Ryan Center in Kingston, Rhode Island.
00:35:368,000 seats.
00:35:37I thought this deep in we'd be able to fill it.
00:35:40We sold 2,500 including a papering service.
00:35:44Unlike your last vampire, there are no delusions here.
00:35:51Arduous.
00:35:53It's tour.
00:35:56My ego.
00:35:58And still...
00:35:59It's not what I hunt.
00:36:02Never say I didn't give you anything.
00:36:04Keys.
00:36:06Let Larry run it!
00:36:10How is Czech me?
00:36:12Like...
00:36:12Fun for three minutes, then you're longing for Prague.
00:36:16Prague is that way.
00:36:17You can dig yourself a hole in cork and be buried in a matya the night after.
00:36:21Provoked.
00:36:23Bored.
00:36:23Ah, you'll run fewer reds that way.
00:36:26There's a shameful tiki bar in Parkdale.
00:36:30Rain check, Sofia.
00:36:41Okay.
00:36:42Well...
00:36:43That took forever.
00:36:45Right?
00:36:47Run it back.
00:36:49About...
00:36:50I don't know.
00:36:50Four minutes.
00:36:52Been trying to crack those cheeks for two months.
00:36:56Vampires.
00:36:57They're...
00:36:57We're just like you.
00:37:00Okay.
00:37:01Let's see what we got here.
00:37:08What the hell?
00:37:10Go...
00:37:10Go back a few more minutes.
00:37:11Please.
00:37:13Stop.
00:37:15Wait a second.
00:37:17What am I looking at here?
00:37:19Did you go back far enough?
00:37:21Alright, let's...
00:37:22Let's keep going back.
00:37:24Yeah, right about there.
00:37:25Stop.
00:37:26Can you get out of my eye line?
00:37:29Yeah.
00:37:31What?
00:37:34What the...
00:37:35Where's the part where he talks about transforming Nikki?
00:37:41They...
00:37:41What?
00:37:42What?
00:37:43He just...
00:37:43He just...
00:37:44Just sat there like a fucking blow-up doll and no one said anything?
00:37:48Nothing?
00:37:49You gotta be fucking kidding me.
00:37:51What is this?
00:37:52No, yeah, it was frickin' weirdsville to you to sat there for like half an hour, eh?
00:37:59He was crying fucking blood tears!
00:38:02Did no one see that?
00:38:03A mean-spirited telepathic prank.
00:38:06A price paid for amusing my muses.
00:38:09It brought poor Dan to his knees and seeded a hate for me inside him.
00:38:14There to be warded in the sunlight later.
00:38:17But what can I say?
00:38:19Serving cunt has its consequences.
00:38:25You are listening to The Failures, album 28, side B.
00:38:32You gonna carry me into the threshold?
00:38:34Yes, ma'am.
00:38:35Mm-hmm.
00:38:43Come here.
00:38:45Ah, I got you, man.
00:38:49You gonna make me a mom with that?
00:38:51I don't think it works like that for us no more.
00:38:53We can give it a try.
00:38:57We're home!
00:39:05It's all these people so shouts.
00:39:08We're trying to get back to my good stuff.
00:39:12Come on, I got you in the bag.
00:39:18That'll happen.
00:39:30Surprise!
00:39:33Congrats on a happy day.
00:39:36I couldn't make it to the ceremony.
00:39:37I hope you don't mind me inviting myself to the honeymoon.
00:39:40Did you make that mess upstairs, friend?
00:39:43I did.
00:39:47Where's the food?
00:39:50I'll call a maneuver.
00:39:59What the fuck are you doing?
00:40:00My husband!
00:40:08Amaya told the truth?
00:40:10Want to tell me what that is?
00:40:12Oh, shit!
00:40:14Okay.
00:40:16This is about the fucking little stat shit.
00:40:19Okay.
00:40:20Yeah, that wasn't my fault.
00:40:24These Gen Z fledglings, these righteous fuckers
00:40:28who thinks we ought to be in the sewers and shit.
00:40:30He's my baby, Jen.
00:40:32Shut up, Bruce.
00:40:35You call me Bruce?
00:40:37Because my name is Killer.
00:40:55You and I have a friend in common.
00:41:00Oh, why?
00:41:04Cold tea, they call it here.
00:41:10Apples with a hint of cowardice.
00:41:16Still in rags?
00:41:17Is this better?
00:41:23Same face, same smell.
00:41:25No hope for you, Father Max.
00:41:27Oh.
00:41:28Not exactly forthcoming, the vampire journalist.
00:41:32Left out a few prickly details.
00:41:37Uh-oh.
00:41:39You forgot to put your blinkers on.
00:41:47Bruce walked back from the fire,
00:41:50leaned down over me,
00:41:52and for a second,
00:41:53I thought I was gonna go right there,
00:41:55but no.
00:41:56Louis DuPont.
00:41:57He plunked me onto his motorbike.
00:41:59Wow.
00:42:00And swished into his friendly self.
00:42:03The Lord's right hand is gifted.
00:42:04The Lord's right hand is gifted.
00:42:05The Lord's right hand is gifted.
00:42:06The Lord's right hand is gifted.
00:42:19The Lord's right hand is gifted.
00:42:20And he thinks back inside!
00:42:24You got your sock.
00:42:28The woman got to his house.
00:42:30I guess my biggest question is,
00:42:32why are you checking me down now?
00:42:34I'm trying to get this down here.
00:42:34I read your little page turner.
00:42:36And it's all gone dumb in my mind too.
00:42:40Crossed out.
00:42:42New sentence.
00:42:43You tipped over the collywubble shelf
00:42:46and took the cloth off the long table.
00:42:48We eat your soul at the long table.
00:42:53Sixty-eight courses so far.
00:42:56We keep waiting for the bill,
00:42:58but the plates keep coming.
00:43:00And we keep asking ourselves,
00:43:01when's he going to make an album?
00:43:05When we are ready!
00:43:09She entertains a lot of little French folks
00:43:12with her death.
00:43:14I don't do nothing that bad to her dang little.
00:43:19I guess I don't have to tell you, dear diary,
00:43:23what it's like to have a person crack your spine,
00:43:25open you up and shove a pencil inside you.
00:43:29Very hard company at the long table.
00:43:32You're not a heart.
00:43:35A finger.
00:43:36No.
00:43:37A drummer.
00:43:39No.
00:43:39A pimp.
00:43:42You.
00:43:43No!
00:43:43No!
00:43:45No!
00:43:45No!
00:43:45No!
00:43:48No!
00:43:50No!
00:43:50You.
00:43:51All my broken arm.
00:43:52And then my ribroken arm.
00:43:55But even still.
00:43:57All the bad things happen that bad men do.
00:44:00he had my legs pulled apart and my dress pulled up around my waist and that awful
00:44:10stuffed full too wet feeling down there like I was packed with dirt
00:44:22and I hope one day he feels this small and cornered and crushed like a can but then there were
00:44:34the parts
00:44:36where he brought home kills and I sat with him and ate
00:44:44I just said what he wanted to hear ask for it child and it ain't easy to like myself because
00:44:57of it
00:44:58all the lights gone out of your blue eyes I even once felt a twinge of something nice
00:45:06as if all the summer days are gone no and not the worst thing ever
00:45:20he let me go because I seemed small and it looked like he'd won
00:45:26and he did win because I want nothing to be nothing and say nothing and do nothing
00:45:42you know the stupidest of all dear diary I thought I was the thing lurking in the shadows
00:45:50I thought I was
00:46:02that's it
00:46:25I imagine you naked in your gold gilded bed
00:46:29wondering why it didn't end on the highway how I got on stage the following night to another
00:46:36feverishly modest audience
00:46:39I couldn't pretend anymore that we were a ticket master must-have or that I wasn't having a nervous
00:46:45breakdown or that psychosis wasn't the exhilarating horrifying byproduct of romping and stomping
00:46:51around the hippocampus but here's the thing I loved the music I loved it it was compelling me forward pulling
00:47:01me through the perennial walls of my psyche and I thought why not ride it to blindness
00:47:07cause it seemed possible this was the muddy bottom and on the other side a marble floor polished to the
00:47:15horizon music in its purest expression would make me worse and then make me better
00:47:23bring on the music
00:47:25bring on the music
00:47:26you can't fuck away
00:47:29how about that

00:47:53Like a headache
00:47:55Sucking you dry
00:47:59You can't escape
00:48:03This loneliness
00:48:06It'll save

00:50:49Oh
00:50:49Oh
00:51:18Oh
00:51:20And I'm following them, you know, on my phone, refresh, refresh, refresh, and they're blowing
00:51:28up.
00:51:30You're going to hear about them soon, if you haven't already.
00:51:35I'm stuck here in Monroe, Ohio, of all places, you know, no offense, and God, I just want
00:51:47to drink, I feel sorry for myself, yeah, thank you for giving me another way through.
00:51:58Thank you for sharing.
00:52:05So, who else wants to share tonight, hmm?
00:52:11Come on, guys.
00:52:12I will, I'll share, um, hello, my name is Arun, hello Arun, and I am an addict.
00:52:40Listen to tracks from the Vampire Lestat, wherever you stream music.
00:52:47I am the toxic bitch, God Lestat!
00:53:00Hi, what can I get you?
00:53:02Lestat is going to get us all killed.
00:53:04I've got five more shows.
00:53:06I'm getting bored.
00:53:08Shall we do it?
00:53:09Shall we scorch the mortal world?
00:53:16The stuttering wolf killer.
00:53:19The vampire Lestat.
00:53:20Evening then.
00:53:22Happy to be here.
00:53:22You really caught my eye.
00:53:26Malloy is a deft investigator, but he's never investigated anybody like this before, and
00:53:32that's going to become really clear in this episode.
00:53:34Were you a stutterer as a child?
00:53:36It's a really wild interview scene.
00:53:38I mean, there's like 300 things happening at one time.
00:53:42You perform a song every night by your abuser, Magnus.
00:53:46Biggest fan.
00:53:47Abuser.
00:53:49I want to give you everything I got.
00:53:53I know you're starting, but you have to ask for it.
00:53:57You see the music video of how Lestat wants to portray his transformation, and he's like,
00:54:05I'm going to write you my, you know, sweet little Taylor Swift pop ballad song.
00:54:10Make a fool out of my maker.
00:54:17He wants to think about it as like, he was my fan and he made me.
00:54:21But of course the truth within that episode asserts itself.
00:54:30We cast Damien Atkins as Magnus.
00:54:32He's a terrifying, vulnerable creature.
00:54:35And the transformation that he inflicts upon Lestat is incredibly violent.
00:54:43Ready.
00:54:44And action.
00:54:46We were trying to really make it as brutal as we possibly could.
00:54:50So that had a real contrast to his kind of gilded music video version that he wanted to show.
00:55:00And then Damien's got this incredible like neck blood pump, you know, that I'm getting rained on beneath and blood
00:55:08going into my eyes.
00:55:10And we tried to make it as gruesome as possible and really show that it was an actual assault.
00:55:15And that is something that Lestat like completely carries through his life as his transformation was full on kidnapping assault.
00:55:25He's got to reconcile that on a daily basis.
00:55:33And what happened at 29?
00:55:37Nicolas de l'enfant.
00:55:38My first love.
00:55:41Don't bring him into eternity.
00:55:49Disaster, my son.
00:55:51Gabriella cannot bear Nikki.
00:55:52I think she really is being honest and I think she's absolutely right.
00:55:56She knows that Lestat doesn't really want to spend eternity with Nikki.
00:56:00Does Nicolas know about us?
00:56:02Us?
00:56:04What is us?
00:56:05This is one of those scenes that I was really interested to see how they were going to revisit the
00:56:11theater.
00:56:11Je t'aime.
00:56:12Je t'aime aussi.
00:56:14This is basically a revisit of Armand's story to Daniel in episode three of season two.
00:56:22But now it's through Lestat's eyes, which arguably is maybe the more truthful version.
00:56:27I love you, Lestat.
00:56:29Christ.
00:56:30And there's also the dynamic of Gabriella.
00:56:33Oh, she doesn't like Armand.
00:56:34Do you think you're the only one in the company he drinks from?
00:56:38Do you think I am the only one with disdain for his fledgling?
00:56:41I think Armand is like the consummate third wheel in every situation.
00:56:44Louis and Lestat, Armand.
00:56:46Gabriella and Lestat, Armand.
00:56:48And Armand's jealousy really shows.
00:56:55He knew that Nikki couldn't withstand what it takes to live this life.
00:57:00He was already unstable before he became a vampire.
00:57:02And Armand has seen vampires succumb to the madness.
00:57:06So he's not surprised when it finally turns.
00:57:11I couldn't do it.
00:57:13But I watched as Armand pushed him into the fire.
00:57:18And made sure he stayed there.
00:57:23Malloy thinks he strikes gold.
00:57:26As it turns out, that's an illusion.
00:57:30What am I looking at here?
00:57:31What is this?
00:57:32No, yeah, it was frickin' Weirdsville to you to sat there for like half an hour, eh?
00:57:37It is a mean-spirited prank in the fact that Malloy didn't get it on camera.
00:57:41But he is talking truth to Malloy when he gives him his telepathic story about what happened there.
00:57:47It's more of a shared experience between the two of them.
00:57:50The anger is deep.
00:57:51To some degree, Lestat is bullying Daniel.
00:57:54And I don't respond well to bullying.
00:57:57And I will push back hard.
00:57:59We would like you to take care of our problem in Detroit, Mr. Dulac.
00:58:05The coven leader's name is Bruce.
00:58:08I believe your Claudia spent a few nights with him once.
00:58:12At the end of episode two, Raglan James tempts Louis with this getting revenge on the guy who hurt Claudia.
00:58:20And Louis has a big hole in his heart.
00:58:24And he feels like doing this will fill it.
00:58:27Making a brief call to share an important message with you.
00:58:29You got the wrong address.
00:58:31The wrong address.
00:58:32That first section when he's trying to get to Bruce.
00:58:35He's doing his job.
00:58:36What?
00:58:37I'm looking for killer.
00:58:39You're not killer.
00:58:40Bester!
00:58:41Okay.
00:58:41He's become so adept at doing this.
00:58:44He's very efficient.
00:58:45And also, he's held himself back a lot from having that kind of killer instinct.
00:58:51So then when it comes out, it, like, it explodes.
00:58:56The thing that I actually found creepiest about that set was the bathtubs and the people lying in there fully
00:59:02clothed.
00:59:04And I was talking to one of the people that was in the bathtub.
00:59:07I was like, is that cold or is that warm?
00:59:09And they were like, it's warm.
00:59:12I was like, okay.
00:59:12So it's like a bath.
00:59:13It's still horrible.
00:59:18He wanted Bruce to understand on some level a degree of the pain and of the suffering that he put
00:59:25Claudia under.
00:59:27You and I have a friend in common.
00:59:31I personally had a kind of complicated relationship with Louis reading Claudia's diary entry because I sort of felt like
00:59:39that's not really his place.
00:59:41But I think Louis thinks that he's speaking on her behalf.
00:59:44And it looked like he'd won.
00:59:46And he did win.
00:59:47Because I want nothing to be nothing.
00:59:53It's just important that before he dies, he can hear it for himself.
00:59:58The hell that he created.
01:00:00And then it's done.
01:00:14I think one of the most poignant moments of this season up to this point is when we see him
01:00:20in that diner.
01:00:20I think he realizes almost immediately that it can't bring her back.
01:00:25It can't undo the pain.
01:00:28Kai, you okay?
01:00:29How can I get you anything else?
01:00:30I'm good.
01:00:31Thank you, Regina.
