But of 667 00:54:21,470 --> 00:54:23,390 the truth within that episode asserts itself. 668 00:54:30,220 --> 00:54:35,440 We cast Damien Atkins as Magnus. He's a terrifying, vulnerable creature. 669 00:54:35,660 --> 00:54:42,360 And the transformation that he inflicts upon Lestat is incredibly 670 00:54:42,360 --> 00:54:44,640 violent. Ready, and action. 671 00:54:45,460 --> 00:54:51,120 We were trying to really make it as brutal as we possibly could so that it 672 00:54:51,120 --> 00:54:56,780 real contrast to his kind of gilded music video version that he wanted to 673 00:55:00,430 --> 00:55:05,770 And then Damien's got this incredible, like, neck blood pump, you know, that 674 00:55:05,770 --> 00:55:10,990 getting rained on beneath and blood going into my eyes. And we tried to make 675 00:55:10,990 --> 00:55:16,110 as gruesome as possible and really show that it was an actual assault. And that 676 00:55:16,110 --> 00:55:19,630 is something that LeDoc, like, completely carries through his life. His 677 00:55:19,630 --> 00:55:24,690 transformation was full -on kidnapping, assault. 678 00:55:25,290 --> 00:55:27,650 He's got to reconcile that on a daily basis. 679 00:55:33,900 --> 00:55:35,900 What happened at 29? 680 00:55:36,940 --> 00:55:38,300 Nicolas de l 'Enfant. 681 00:55:38,600 --> 00:55:39,800 My first love. 682 00:55:40,940 --> 00:55:43,700 Don't bring him into eternity. 683 00:55:49,360 --> 00:55:50,480 Disaster, my friend. 684 00:55:50,840 --> 00:55:55,280 Gabriella cannot bear Nicky. I think she really is being honest, and I think 685 00:55:55,280 --> 00:55:58,360 she's absolutely right. She knows that Lestat doesn't really want to spend 686 00:55:58,360 --> 00:56:01,820 eternity with Nicky. Does Nicolas know about us? 687 00:56:02,080 --> 00:56:03,080 Us? 688 00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:05,238 What is this? 689 00:56:05,240 --> 00:56:09,220 This is one of those scenes that I was really interested to see how they were 690 00:56:09,220 --> 00:56:10,960 going to revisit the theater. 691 00:56:11,300 --> 00:56:12,300 Je t 'aime. 692 00:56:12,600 --> 00:56:13,760 Je t 'aime aussi. 693 00:56:14,060 --> 00:56:20,780 This is basically a revisit of Armand's story to Daniel in episode three of 694 00:56:20,780 --> 00:56:26,380 season two, but now it's through Lestat's eyes, which arguably is maybe 695 00:56:26,380 --> 00:56:27,380 truthful version. 696 00:56:27,620 --> 00:56:28,620 I love you, Lestat. 697 00:56:29,160 --> 00:56:32,840 Christ. And there's also the dynamic of Gabriella. 698 00:56:33,200 --> 00:56:34,380 Oh, she doesn't like Armand. 699 00:56:34,600 --> 00:56:38,660 Do you think you're the only one in the company he drinks from? Do you think I 700 00:56:38,660 --> 00:56:42,580 am the only one with disdain for his fledgling? Armand is like the consummate 701 00:56:42,580 --> 00:56:44,060 third wheel in every situation. 702 00:56:44,280 --> 00:56:49,980 Louis enlistat Armand. Gabrielle enlistat Armand. And Armand's jealousy 703 00:56:49,980 --> 00:56:50,980 shows. 704 00:56:52,200 --> 00:56:59,080 He knew that Nicky couldn't withstand what it takes to live 705 00:56:59,080 --> 00:56:59,868 this life. 706 00:56:59,870 --> 00:57:04,430 He was already unstable before he became a vampire, and Armand has seen vampires 707 00:57:04,430 --> 00:57:10,250 succumb to the madness, so he's not surprised when it finally turns. 708 00:57:10,970 --> 00:57:12,430 I couldn't do it. 709 00:57:12,890 --> 00:57:19,470 But I watched as Armand pushed him into the fire and made sure he stayed there. 710 00:57:23,090 --> 00:57:27,270 Malloy thinks he strikes gold, as it turns out. 711 00:57:27,870 --> 00:57:29,110 That's an illusion. 712 00:57:29,970 --> 00:57:32,410 What am I looking at here? What is this? 713 00:57:32,690 --> 00:57:36,870 No, yeah, it was frickin' weirdsville. Two of you sat there for like half an 714 00:57:36,870 --> 00:57:40,410 hour, eh? It is a mean -spirited prank in the fact that Malloy didn't get it on 715 00:57:40,410 --> 00:57:45,250 camera. But he is talking truth to Malloy when he gives him his telepathic 716 00:57:45,250 --> 00:57:46,610 about what happened there. 717 00:57:46,870 --> 00:57:51,630 It's more of a shared experience between the two of them. The anger is deep. To 718 00:57:51,630 --> 00:57:53,730 some degree, Lestat is bullying Daniel. 719 00:57:54,460 --> 00:57:58,540 And I don't respond well to bullying. And I will push back hard. 720 00:57:58,960 --> 00:58:05,060 We would like you to take care of our problem in Detroit, Mr. Dulac. 721 00:58:05,280 --> 00:58:07,180 The coven leader's name is Bruce. 722 00:58:07,480 --> 00:58:11,660 I believe your Claudia spent a few nights with him once. 723 00:58:11,980 --> 00:58:17,260 At the end of episode two, Raglan James tempts Louis with this getting revenge 724 00:58:17,260 --> 00:58:23,890 on the guy who hurt Claudia. And Louis has a big hole in his... and 725 00:58:23,890 --> 00:58:28,530 he feels like doing this will fill it. Making a brief call to share an 726 00:58:28,530 --> 00:58:31,590 message with you. You got the wrong address. The wrong address. 727 00:58:32,570 --> 00:58:36,250 That first section, when he's trying to get to Bruce, he's doing his job. 728 00:58:36,690 --> 00:58:38,010 What? I'm looking for killer. 729 00:58:39,350 --> 00:58:40,890 You're not killer. Okay. 730 00:58:41,410 --> 00:58:43,830 He's become so adept at doing this. 731 00:58:44,050 --> 00:58:45,050 He's very efficient. 732 00:58:45,330 --> 00:58:50,730 And also, he's held himself back a lot from having that kind of killer 733 00:58:50,770 --> 00:58:53,800 So then when it comes out, it... Like, it explodes. 734 00:58:56,180 --> 00:59:00,500 The thing that I actually found creepiest about that set was the 735 00:59:00,500 --> 00:59:02,920 the people lying in there, fully clothed. 736 00:59:03,740 --> 00:59:07,460 And I was talking to one of the people that was in the bathtub. I was like, is 737 00:59:07,460 --> 00:59:08,520 that cold or is that warm? 738 00:59:08,840 --> 00:59:11,300 And they were like, it's warm. 739 00:59:11,740 --> 00:59:13,120 I was like, okay, so it's like a bath. 740 00:59:13,360 --> 00:59:14,360 It's still horrible. 741 00:59:18,160 --> 00:59:24,060 He wanted Bruce to understand on some level a degree of the pain and of the 742 00:59:24,060 --> 00:59:26,300 suffering that he put Claudia under. 743 00:59:27,500 --> 00:59:30,760 You and I have a friend in common. 744 00:59:31,160 --> 00:59:36,700 I personally had a kind of complicated relationship with Louis reading 745 00:59:36,700 --> 00:59:41,800 diary entry because I sort of felt like that's not really his place. But I think 746 00:59:41,800 --> 00:59:43,980 Louis thinks that he's speaking on her behalf. 747 00:59:44,540 --> 00:59:45,760 And it looked like he won. 748 00:59:46,060 --> 00:59:47,140 And he did win. 749 00:59:47,400 --> 00:59:53,180 Because I want nothing to be nothing. 750 00:59:53,580 --> 00:59:58,780 It's just important that before he dies, he can hear it for himself. The hell 751 00:59:58,780 --> 01:00:00,220 that he created. 752 01:00:00,420 --> 01:00:02,280 And then it's done. 753 01:00:14,570 --> 01:00:19,290 I think one of the most poignant moments of the season up to this point is when 754 01:00:19,290 --> 01:00:24,150 you see him in that diner. I think he realizes almost immediately that it 755 01:00:24,150 --> 01:00:27,710 bring her back. It can't undo the pain. 756 01:00:27,970 --> 01:00:30,350 Kai, you okay? How can I get you anything else? 757 01:00:30,550 --> 01:00:32,610 I'm good. Thank you, Regina.
