Final week when he confirmed his energy to Lestat was a spotlight of the episode and now we now have begun to peel again much more layers to him and it’s clear he’s hiding one thing from Louis and Daniel. I’m very intrigued about what secret he’s hiding behind these soul looking eyes. The confrontation is bound to be entertaining.
A lot occurred on this hour, beginning with Claudia opening her present enjoying a bit lady who needs to be a hen and fly away. She is dressed like a child doll and sings a preferred tune that will get caught in your head. The viewers eats it up and Claudia hates it and the coven hates it for different causes. They’re jealous of her recognition in fact but in addition as a result of they hate Louis freedom and Claudia is near Louis.

Claudia turns into tired of the present and is punished by Armand who forces her to put on her costume day and evening. Santiago challenges Armand in entrance of the coven on account of his relationship with Louie. It’s clear Armand is dropping energy of the coven as they are saying and do what they need with out concern of him.
All this occurs as Louis and Armand battle to outline their relationship with the ghost of Lestat nonetheless in Louis’ head. They play a forwards and backwards of who’s in management and who isn’t. When Louis joins the coven out at a restaurant, Santiago begins to imitate Louis and states his accent sounds Creole and never Chicagoan. Louis assaults Santiago displaying nice energy I didn’t notice he had as Armand freezes your entire room and the vampires. It was an amazing scene and at last confirmed that Louis was beginning to present some energy – together with having the ability to begin fires all through the episode.
Santiago plans a mutiny and steals journals from Louis’ room that almost certainly element his relationship with Lestat. I take pleasure in his and Claudia’s scenes and Ben Daniels performs it so nicely that you’re unable to inform if he likes Claudia or is utilizing her to assist take over the coven. One factor is for sure, I don’t suppose it is going to finish nicely if he makes an attempt to problem Armand as on this episode when Armand catches him spying he’s put in his place.

Armand additionally exhibits Claudia who’s in cost and he is aware of about Lestat after she is late for a efficiency as a result of she is spending time with Madeleine. Madeleine is such an attention-grabbing character and her and Claudia’s relationship growing provides a brand new attention-grabbing ingredient to this season as nicely. Claudia is determined for a companion of her personal and Madeleine is trying like the proper one. Particularly after Claudia and Louis battle over Armand with Claudia feeling like Louis picked one other over her once more.
The spotlight of the episode needed to be when Armand instructed Louis his historical past. How he was a slave and his time with maker Marius. Assad Zaman was lovely within the scene and in addition haunting. He positively has modified my notion of his tackle the character on this episode.
One other scene of be aware is when Louis and ghost Lestat are talking within the park and Louis seems to lastly have let go of Lestat. Sam Reid additionally performed the scene superbly with the look in his eye as if Lestat was actually there as he started to fade.

Daniel is struggling to cover his information from the Talamasca, letting it slip that he knew concerning the theater hearth. He’s additionally having visions of the previous with Armand that he can not fairly piece collectively. Extra of this might be explored within the subsequent episode.
There’s a thriller behind Louis and his pictures that causes pressure between him and Armand. It’s clear by the look on Armand’s face that he’s hiding one thing.
There are such a lot of mysteries left to reply for the rest of the season and all of it retains the viewer on the sting of their seat. Subsequent week is ready to carry much more vampiric messiness.
