00:00Watch The Vampire Lestat After Dark on AMC Plus or wherever you get your podcasts.
00:30Is it true you were a stutterer as a child?
00:32His name's Raglan James.
00:34Mr. Malloy would like to stay alive, Rashid.
00:37Got me wondering what it'd be like.
00:38Ride with others, huntin' a pack.
00:41The Tooth Team, the Fang Gang.
00:45I assume a privileged individual such as yourself enjoys a little dirt in their sandwich.
00:50So I serve it to you now.
00:52You're for real?
00:53How it felt then.
00:55Fledgling.
00:56Lover.
00:57Mother.
01:01You are listening to The Failures.
01:04Album 8, Side A.
01:07If you're still listening after the...
01:10Eid Epiphany of the last hour, welcome back.
01:14I've been fondling my thoughts since the last album, and I believe there might be value added in illuminating the
01:21why and how I became me in their light of said Eid Epiphany.
01:26You've weathered the Freudian storms, and yes, that boat is a penis, and yes, that ocean is my mother's vagina.
01:34Kiss, grope, aftercare, onward.
01:39Picture Auvergne, France, 1772.
01:43Picture the dingy seat of the Liencourt family at the fag end of a thousand years of aristocratic decline.
01:50Picture my five dead siblings.
01:54Aristide, Marie, Jules, unbaptized.
01:57And Fustin, garden gnomes guarding the undulating domestic bliss of our great hall.
02:03The boy possesses an ability to envision the unseen, the holy, and he would be well-suited to the monastic
02:09house at Haute-Loire.
02:10And what will you get for this favor?
02:13A silk line cassock?
02:15Nothing, monseigneur.
02:16I see goodness in your son.
02:19Are you a good boy, Lestat?
02:24Answer your brother, Lestat.
02:28I...
02:29I...
02:31Don't...
02:34Don't...
02:35Don't...
02:36Don't...
02:37No, no, he doesn't, no?
02:40My son, the Hiccab, the next Pope.
02:43We can mend his affliction.
02:45Pope?
02:45Let's be fit his wife and station.
02:48Titles.
02:48One on the blood-soaked fields of France.
02:51The other one on the blood-soaked fields of France.
02:57If I count on the blood-soaked fields of France, it will be worth it.
03:01In time, he would learn to find consolation in philosophy.
03:05What is the course of studies at Haute-Loire?
03:07Aristotle.
03:09Erasmus.
03:26I...
03:30The innkeeper tells me he brought these actors back to the inn.
03:35Buys them a sum of wine, beyond obligation.
03:39Half the village there, waiting for me to pay.
03:43Tenants asking me this.
03:45The escape was not an option for Gabriela Vecci.
03:49The Marquis had promised her preservation and delivered her ruin.
03:53On stage with all and all masters.
03:57He wants a taste of the theater.
03:59You tell him to bed one of them.
04:01You don't open the wagon and join up!
04:10She sacrificed her youth, squandered her intellect, and paid a midwife to nick her in the womb so he couldn't
04:16humiliate her anymore.
04:17Who does act in the square like a beggar?
04:20Like an actor!
04:21After a gong farmer, then an actor!
04:23Better an actor, then a cabbage.
04:25Look up from your book when you speak to our father, huh?
04:29Cabbage? Cabbage? Cabbage...
04:45Love nothing, do nothing, change nothing!
04:47Seat and supper!
04:49Am I suffering?
04:50Is it Grégoire?
04:51A question for the philosophers.
04:54Can a cabbage suffer?
05:02One hour on stage.
05:05An hour of not displace.
05:09It's dampness and dimness.
05:11And you're Pocamark the wife.
05:13And Grégoire jamming his cock into servant girls like he's saucing pork.
05:19Cabbage!
05:20And the start speaks!
05:22Cabbage!
05:23Averse with players in a wagon!
05:26Cabbage!
05:27Say cabbage...
05:30One more goddamn time.
05:36Cabbage!
05:37Break his legs!
05:39Cabbage!
05:41You will hunt the land as we do!
05:44You will marry your world!
05:45And have children who will shame you!
05:47The way you have shamed me!
05:51Cabbage!
05:54Cabbage!
05:58Cabbage!
05:59Cabbage!
06:01Cabbage!
06:01Cabbage!
06:02Cabbage!
06:03Cabbage!
06:04Cabbage!
06:09Oxygen!
06:10Well now the wolves.
06:13They are taking out sheep.
06:14So bold now they have lost their fear.
06:16Another one stolen today.
06:18A p rental of guards where sheep used to be.
06:21They will snatch a babe soon.
06:23There'd be wolves in the hill since I was a boy.
06:27Magnificent!
06:27The wolves are causing trouble, brother.
06:30It's a famine now, seigneur, from here to Versailles.
06:34What does he want us to do about it, huh?
06:35Nothing.
06:36Sit there on your titles while you fumble to find your pricks from under the awning of your stomachs.
06:47Peace!
06:51Keep coughing, huh?
06:52Seeding the nothings you had, bearing more nothings, will inherit nothing!
07:00Not funny, brother.
07:02Put the gun down, Lestat.
07:04She's with, child!
07:05Hey!
07:06Put the gun down, Lestat.
07:08The wolves will move on!
07:12We ask your protection as our seigneur.
07:16We would like you to share some of your bounty on your table.
07:20Hey!
07:20Go on!
07:23There's nothing more we can do here but be men!
07:34She meant to kill me with the challenge.
07:37Better a quick end than watch me surrender another decade.
07:41Watch me join the cabbages.
07:47Oh!
07:48Oh!
07:48Oh!
07:49Oh!
07:56And what was this life?
08:02The good in me lost at the monastery.
08:04Wait.
08:06My sense of wonder abandoned in a traveling player's wagon.
08:10Go.
08:11Brush them out.
08:13Go!
08:14Go!
08:15Go!
08:16Go!
08:16Go!
08:16Go!
08:17Go!

08:18Go!
08:19Go!
08:20Go!
08:21Go!
08:24Go!
08:25I wanted the wolves to come.
08:32Until I didn't...
08:36N Genesis 76
08:37Go!
08:37Go!
08:40Go!
08:41Go!

08:47Go!
08:48Go!
08:48Go!
08:53He refuses food. He refuses care.
08:58You killed five wolves by yourself.
09:06Eight. Not five.
09:13They were about my horse.
09:19My dog.
09:27Eight.
09:33Do the wolves look worse?
09:40There's a mob came yesterday, again tonight.
09:44They wish to worship you.
09:47Your father and your brother spent with shame.
09:53Come down. You'll enjoy it.
09:57From room to room.
10:01Slaughtering the three of them.
10:05That's what I dreamt when I killed the wolves.
10:12You know what I dream?
10:20I'm drinking wine.
10:23So drunk.
10:25I dream of my clothes and bait in the mountains.
10:29Dream.
10:35I go into the village, into the inn, and I take into bed any man that comes.
10:55Crude men, big men, old men, boys, taking them one after another, and feeling some magnificent release in it.
11:13No thought of your father or your brothers in that world.
11:27I belong to no one.
11:32Except for me.
11:50I'm dying.
11:52I'm dying.
11:53I won't survive the winter.
11:57Mother?
12:07Finish it thee as a mob to bless.
12:14Mother!
12:18Mother!
12:22Mother!
12:24Mother!
12:28Mother!
12:31Mother!
12:34Mother!
12:35Mother!
12:36Mother!
12:37Mother!
12:38Mother!
12:39Mother!
12:39Mother!
12:46I saw them, too.
12:48Oh, and the drug mule contributes a complete sentence.
12:51Social media coordinator.
12:53I'll check your contract.
12:54It says cocaine whore bucket.
12:56I know, but I saw lawyer.
12:58I saw a guy kill another guy.
13:00Vampire!
13:01Right in front of me!
13:02Vampire!
13:02What the Killjoy second guitarist may or may not have witnessed was one vampire acting
13:07in self-defense.
13:08But he signed a unilateral, which is a one-way street that I control.
13:12Suitcase bomb!
13:15Where are we?
13:17Buckeye State.
13:18Do you have the fire gift?
13:21Oh, my God.
13:25How did I get you?
13:28Sophia.
13:29Forgotten my name already?
13:32Oh, hello.
13:34Sophia.
13:37I'm sorry.
13:38Are we just, like, not going to talk about last night?
13:40Are we not going to talk about, like, the year and a half of weird bullshit that you've
13:44been putting us through for the past, like, year and a half?
13:45On top of the fact that you can fly?
13:46And you didn't feel like that was at all important to tell us?
13:48Something's on fire.
13:48We've been up all day.
13:49We've got, like, a shit-ton list of questions, man.
13:52But what else can you do?
13:53Yeah, like, where do you put the body?
13:55Don't answer that!
13:56When was the last time you talked to our mom?
13:58I could have hung it up there, too, I guess.
14:01But we sounded really good in Detroit.
14:03And there were another thousand beautifully unwell to serve in Ohio.
14:06And she had come a great distance to comfort me.
14:11And you are being very patient regarding the vampire incest factor.
14:17And I do appreciate it.
14:18Do you guys play baseball?
14:19Like the Twilight?
14:21One at a time.
14:21One at a time!
14:23One at a time!
14:24Please!
14:25One at a time!
14:37One at a time!
14:56I'm at the face of the murder.
14:58What a stupid rage!
15:00Bang bang
15:01Bang bang
15:03Bang bang
15:05Bang bang
15:05Bang bang
15:06I'll fall down
15:09Burn the ground
15:14I'll fall down
15:18Burn the ground
15:20Bang bang
15:21Bang bang
15:23Bang bang
15:24Bang bang
15:24Bang bang
15:26Bang bang! Bang bang! Bang bang!
15:55Oh yeah, that's also why you have a body double.
15:58You tell them!
15:59He gets most of his blood from the farm.
16:01Most? The farm? It's like a blood bank.
16:05People donate and they're handsomely compensated. It's all highly ethical.
16:08They tap college burnouts and attic-run bingo games. Cash only, no questions.
16:14Whoa, whoa, so you're a vampire too?
16:16Three of us, nine of you. Out and proud.
16:20Three? Three? Three?
16:22Hi, name's Daniel. I'm a Taurus on the cusp of Aries.
16:26I prefer A, B, negative. Who's your maker?
16:29Have you tried RH? No. Only 45 people on the planet possess it.
16:35Only nine active donors.
16:37Tell me all about it, babe.
16:40Hey, hey, look, hey, this isn't a goddamn joke!
16:42Man-only meeting!
16:45You might be able to back up security promises of protecting those like my clients.
16:48I understand the panic. You saw something that you didn't want to acknowledge.
16:53Okay.
16:54But willful ignorance is sleep in a giant's hand.
16:57Willful ignorance.
16:58Oh, come on. Have you ever seen me in the light of day?
17:00Armand is a day walker.
17:01Did you help me hose off my Mustang at a self-service car wash in Spokane?
17:06You said that was a deer.
17:06As D-E-A-R as any KFC night manager has a right to be.
17:10Okay, so you do kill people.
17:12Vampires have been among you your entire lives.
17:15We've been a part of the ecological landscape.
17:17Yeah, how do we know you're not gonna kill us?
17:18For thousands of years, you've been in my band for over a year and a half.
17:20It's not your band, it's our fucking band!
17:22Jesus Christ, you're such an asshole.
17:23In fact, you've all been protected numerous times without being made aware of it.
17:27What?
17:28What we're doing.
17:29The confessional nature of the songs, performing for mortals, the insights into vampiric desires.
17:33It's all sacrilegious to vampirism.
17:38What?
17:38It's not a worry.
17:39I have the blood of Akasha in me.
17:41Sorry, what the fuck is Akasha?
17:42What is important and what we should be celebrating is what we did on stage last night.
17:46Are all your songs about this guy, Louis?
17:48We were raw, nasty, transcendent.
17:51I'm afraid of losing you.
17:51Excuse me?
17:52Then I lost you.
17:54You know.
17:55It's Louis, not Louis, and you you were referring to could be one of two dozen paramours.
18:01Who's the villain sneaking up from behind with the knife in his hand and a mouthful of life.
18:05We were beyond epic last night.
18:06I pulled the knife from my cane and I held it up to the stops throat.
18:08And that is what we are all scared about.
18:09I want to stay in bed.
18:11Eating black licorice is not about sucking Louis' death.
18:13Black licorice is about the first kill I made after Louis and I reconciled.
18:18I'd say I'll call the cops.
18:20I lived 54,554 days before I met Louis de Pointe du Lac.
18:25You kill people.
18:26I'm people.
18:27We're people.
18:28And so was I.
18:32No vampire was born a vampire.
18:36F this.
18:38F you.
18:39We quit.
18:42Come on.
18:46Larry.
18:48They don't want to speak.
18:50But, um, being a vampire, I can tell you what they're thinking.
18:54Would you like to know what they're thinking?
18:57Fifteen hundred when we started.
19:00Twenty thousand followers now.
19:02He killed the sound technician in Denver that muddied my solos on purpose.
19:06And he is glad that I killed him.
19:09Except I didn't kill him.
19:10I merely fired him, Larry.
19:12Fate's entourage, the brooms, the tits, the dime store darlings, Bukkake Ice Helmet,
19:18and four others that are not as good but just as successful.
19:22If I don't hit it now, I'm gonna marry the bum and have a baby.
19:29Thin Lizzy sucks.
19:30We'd sound better with one guitar.
19:33I don't think that.
19:34Yeah, she does.
19:35It's Alamander.
19:37Another one of Alex's vegan, straight edge, bullshit mood swings.
19:43You'll find a meeting and be back tomorrow.
19:46Dude.
19:48And I make it a rule never to sleep with my bandmates.
19:56TC was talking about Larry, not you.
20:00You are the best pure musician we have, other than me.
20:05So take your time, Alex.
20:08Process it, as they say.
20:10But think thrice before running to the police or sharing in one of your anonymous groups.
20:16Not if you value your life.
20:18Or your brother's.
20:23You are listening to The Failures.
20:26Album 12, Side B.
20:31There's a dearth of privacy on a vampire rock tour.
20:34The bus, shared hotel floors, roadies transporting coffins, etc.
20:39And as front man, you're encircled by those who invariably want something from you.
20:44Now my mother, Gabriela Vecci, rest her soul, was a complicated hang.
20:49But my fledgling, the vampress Gabriela, was anything but.
20:54And with the bandit Soundcheck and Yerda playing billiards on the other side of town, she and a less pharmaceutical
20:59challenged me, found an evening to catch up and kill time.
21:03And there was simply no one in the garden more effortless in killing time than her.
21:08Why were you in Chicago?
21:10I wasn't.
21:12I was glamping in Vucevic.
21:15You lied.
21:16My maker called for his mama and I came, and came, and came.
21:24Yeah, about that.
21:25I know, we really shouldn't.
21:28We need to make a pact if you're gonna stay.
21:31Up to you.
21:32I want you to stay.
21:34A pact then.
21:37Companionship without the calm.
21:40We needn't you lie.
21:42Weave a basket and fill it with bullshit.
21:47I missed you.
21:51We met in Italy, of course.
21:54The Ambrosian Carnival, of course.
21:57Of course.
21:58And we wore the same costume, of course.
22:00And raced across the Piazza del Duomo to see who would slap each other first.
22:08And then you unmasked me and, well...
22:11This face.
22:15I recognized myself really.
22:21Yeah.
22:22See, it comes back around again.
22:24Hmm.
22:27How long are you gonna stay?
22:32I saw you two times last century.
22:35It's not an unreasonable question.
22:37Long enough?
22:40Long enough for what?
22:43Long enough to see you sing?
22:46For you to show me munchie?
22:50Wilmingdon.
22:52Food courts.
22:54We excuse me.
22:56I want to play cornhole.
22:59We excuse me.
22:59Rest on the rust belt.
23:00For the speed on the floor.
23:02All the moist cavities.
23:04We excuse me.
23:05I want to know this paisagraso.
23:07How it hypnotizes my son for a century.
23:11We excuse me.
23:14Can I take you to dinner, Sofia?
23:18I would love that.
23:20We thank you.
23:23In a glass corner of a glass building,
23:26a group of building glass salesmen were closing a sale of a substantial amount of glass sold to a company
23:32in yet-to-be-tariffed Germany.
23:34There was to be ritualized Saturnalia in both countries that night, and we invited ourselves to the one closest to.
23:42A study commissioned by the Centers for Disease Control on rates of depression in mid-sized American cities ranked Toledo
23:49number two on their list.
23:51Heads are down in Toledo, which makes it a fine city to travel via the cloud gift, which was Gabriela's
23:57preferred mode of murder transport.
24:00Why take so many cars?
24:03Triumph is a dark road, Sofia.
24:05And each man must find his own exit.
24:08The worst reveal themselves through time in Negrone.
24:12Nine at the indoor golfing range.
24:14Seven eating seafood towers at the chop house.
24:18Five crept out at the casino.
24:21And then there were three.
24:22All tippling by the time we plummeted back down the backside of Chubbs, a bar contetta blocks off the Mome
24:30River.
24:31Our hunger propelled us inside, and we watched as the remaining items on the menu marinated themselves in the pole
24:38-ravaged sweat of sex-positive, sex-cynical, sex-stipulated dancing.
24:45They had closed their deal, and we would close ours.
24:49We watched them, watched them.
24:52And only some time later would I understand we were being watched as well.
24:56By those who were always there.
24:59A curious tangle of hunters and hunted.
25:03That warm spring night.
25:07And then it happened again.
25:12Are you a good boy, Lestat?
25:15An unamusing muse.
25:17Was this the first soldier over the wall the Oracle Jenks forewarned me about?
25:23Or the last fumes of Detroit?
25:25If you're ever homesick, there's a classy Italian place on Adam Street.
25:31Do they have spaghetti?
25:32Do you work here?
25:35Go on, what about the Henry Moore?
25:40Lover.
25:40Where are you?
25:42I'm with Sophia.
25:42I don't wanna know.
25:43You have to do a sit down with Thomas Pitt and lawyer tomorrow.
25:46That's your job, lover.
25:47I'm doing my job, motherfucker.
25:49No more. We have a pact now.
25:52What?
25:54Who's Thomas Pitt?
25:54The owner of the hotel you defiled in Detroit, his lawyer says he's a fan and would appreciate an exclusive
26:00fan experience.
26:02Do I have to fuck him?
26:03Yes.
26:04Call an Uber, go to Coffin.
26:06Fine.
26:10Thank you, Carol.
26:11Uh, do you work here?
26:13Did I ever ask that?
26:18You really have to understand that Vampire Gabriella, when she wasn't free-soloing a mountain or stirring a singing bowl
26:26in some dreary village, she was good company.
26:32Even as you're being out-monstered, out-bantered, it feels good.
26:37Like watching blood down a staircase feels good, or finding a party invitation in your victim's pocket.
26:45Well, I mean, that doesn't happen anymore to empty invites, but...
26:48Being with Gabriella is like...
26:54Like...
26:56Like...
26:59Ah, predatory spirit.
27:02A good candidate for the great conversion.
27:07Well, Randy, last man standing, loves glass.
27:16Also knows somewhere inside that he does not love glass.
27:25I'm starving.
27:29Shall we take them both now? One each?
27:33I want to share mine with you.
27:36So, we wait.
27:38We wait.
27:42Do you have a lot of sex?
27:48I'm a rock star, Mal.
27:51Of course.
27:52Do you like it?
27:56Like you do the blood.
27:59It's never like the blood.
28:07We couldn't help ourselves.
28:12We rode the edges of our pact.
28:19Hey, just leaving the job post.
28:21You okay to drive?
28:22Yeah, yeah, of course.
28:23Daddy!
28:24Hey, kiddo.
28:25What are you doing up?
28:26I can't sleep.
28:28Back to bed.
28:29Listen to your mom.
28:30I'll give you a kiss when I get home.
28:31Okay.
28:33I love you.
28:34Okay, bye.
28:37You are listening to The Failures.
28:40Album 15, side B.
28:43Estimates on the structural damage are still being calculated, so the figure we've put forth was based on comps the
28:49engaged architectural firm provided.
28:50For a hotel hallway massacre.
28:53Comparable damages to comparable spaces.
28:55I'd like to add a line for cascading glass.
28:57The parking structure below had a fleet of vehicles lacerated.
29:00These cleanup numbers are made up.
29:01The cleanup numbers in this case are mostly going towards silencing witnesses.
29:05This is not my first clown rodeo, Grace Jones and Goethe.
29:07And Salt received his compliment.
29:08Anyone who won't take a couple thousand in an envelope, you guys do the mind wipey things.
29:12So you could take that line item and hold it over your vampire bidet.
29:15We could've done the shit over the phone.
29:16According to Mr. Pitt here, your client's the one who called this meeting.
29:19You did no such thing.
29:20You stole my personal physician.
29:23You hired my biographer.
29:24You trashed my hotel.
29:26I didn't know it.
29:27The Detroit Coven trashed your hotel.
29:28I've heard the song.
29:29The songs are not about you.
29:31It feels like a cry for help.
29:34So I flew in.
29:36Because I care.
29:37Oh, it just says you cared in your book.
29:39We've been through all this.
29:40The fact that you insulted me page after page after page.
29:44Take it up with Molloy, who wrote it.
29:46Or the Tala Mosca, who published it.
29:48Why are you employing Sam Barkley after Paris?
29:51He's paying down his debts.
29:52Oh.
29:53Bottom line, Louie.
29:54All of a sudden's negotiated.
29:55Sam didn't get on a boat.
29:56We're here to litigate.
29:57Sam didn't memorize the lines.
29:59He got direct a play and then come home canoodling with one of its victims.
30:02Did he?
30:02Who did that, I wonder?
30:04Repeat the name.
30:05That would be Armand.
30:06Armand.
30:09San Diego, I could understand.
30:10At least he had a presence.
30:12But I don't know.
30:12I'm happy to discuss Armand.
30:14If you think that would help you.
30:15Is it true that you had a second home in Sausalito with him?
30:18We did?
30:19Did you take turns driving across the Golden Gate Bridge who held the wheel harder?
30:23Yeah.
30:23Writing numbers on each other's backs and pretending to guess them wrong.
30:26I bet.
30:28I bet!
30:29I bet!
30:30Come on.
30:30Very specific detail to block out of thin air!
30:33What are the votes?
30:35Are we taking minutes of this?
30:36I think we can wrap this up dispassionately.
30:38Yes, let's try and circle back to the particulars.
30:42Are you two fucking?
30:44Yes.
30:47Companion enough for yourself or you're over?
30:49He's not my companion.
30:51He's a great lay and emotionally unavailable.
30:55You doing her?
30:56Yes.
30:58Petite, surprising, and can perform what most metropolitan training systems can only dream
31:02of.
31:04Okay.
31:06Are you enjoying this exclusive fan experience?
31:09I am.
31:10Christine, could you please provide two tickets to Mr. Pit here and his Esquire for tomorrow
31:16night's show?
31:16One will do.
31:17Lemuel doesn't enjoy your music.
31:19I do like your merchandise though.
31:21Healthy margins considering the size of your tour.
31:23That's why I own 40% of it.
31:26Of my merch.
31:2745%.
31:2845%?
31:29My bad.
31:30I'll look into it.
31:31I was afraid.
31:33I was afraid.
31:34I was afraid.
31:38I was afraid.
31:39I was afraid.
31:39I'm losing you.
31:43They liked you.
31:52Oh, Alex.
31:55I'm losing you.
31:57They liked you.
31:59Larry likes it.
32:00Everyone else is raped.
32:04A start in his hostage squad.
32:06Get me a shot of his latest friend-o there.
32:10Copy that.
32:11Where?
32:11The Cougar Milanese in the crowd.
32:15Got her.
32:16No, no, no.
32:17Not her.
32:17The one standing in judgment of the Buckeye God.
32:21The one from the Buckeye?
32:22Yeah.
32:24Okay, now go up from her to the balcony and get me a frame of pretty green eyes again.
32:29Okay.
32:30Got him.
32:31Who is this guy?
32:31He is the story.
32:40Mr. Dulac, what brings you to Toledo?
32:45You're looking younger, Daniel.
32:48A lot of sights in Manjaro.
32:51I'm still pissed.
32:54Want to brawl it out in the alley after the show?
32:59All right.
33:12What the fuck are you doing here?
33:16Oh.
33:18Yeah!
33:21Oh!
33:22Yeah!
33:24Oh!
33:26Oh!
33:30There's no one.
33:41Oh, I, I tried to write you
33:46The prettiest song in the world
33:51But I got distracted
33:57All I did is
34:03Oh, why, why, why, why
34:18Why, why, why, why, why, why why
34:23Why, why, why, why
34:27Why, why why
34:33Why, why, why why
34:35Call comes in from some Hollywood asshole
34:38Asking me whether I want to write
34:39The movie version of the book
34:40I'm like, blow me, lose my number
34:43Calls me back a week later
34:44What about a documentary
34:45I'm like, Louie won't even talk to me
34:48me. He says not Louis Lestat, the white guy. Old friends talking around the small betrayal that
34:54kept them apart. And I know what you're thinking. He wasn't there. But this is my hour, and when
35:00tertiary figures appear in it, I will be speaking for them. Daniel, Mr. Dulac, anyone I feel is
35:07important towards understanding how I woke the Queen and unleashed her wrath upon the world.
35:12I am everywhere, and rest assured, it comes with less whining than their attempt. Did it happen in
35:19a bar with a view? I say it did. How are you taken to the gift? You adore him? I'm
35:26alright. Vampire
35:28loneliness, I get it now. I'm picking up bowling, and I have this weird thing that happens where
35:38suddenly everyone around me disappears, like the raptures come, and I, you know, I feel
35:49him. Armand? Yeah. That happened with you and Lestat? No. Oh. Sounds weird. Look, I'm sorry,
36:04okay? I should have asked you before I published. I'm sorry. I would have said no.
36:14I can't fly. I can't start fires. All I got is the low-hanging balls gift. I wanted something
36:20out of it. I'm glad the book worked out for you. Didn't do too much damage to you, or whoever
36:26you are. Thomas Pitt. Hotels, bars, mall, retail. I saw money on the table. You read it? You
36:49fucking liar. The writing's good. Hard read. He didn't like the part about Claudia and him
36:59on the train. Yeah, we were finding our way back again when the book dropped. It hurt
37:05him. I called one of my daughters the first month dead. Called her again during the book
37:15tour. Hung up, hung up. Probably the right move. I saw Claudia in New York, coming up the
37:29subway. Claudia. Yeah, someone who looked like her. But in her 20s, if she'd have made it
37:36to her 20s. Saw her come up. I watched her turn the corner. Happened to be going in the same
37:43direction, kind of, sort of. I saw her walk into a diner. I couldn't help myself. I go inside.
37:56I grab a booze. It's not her. She's not there. Chase the ghost, I guess. If I order a donut
38:08and coffee, you know, just to pass. Then she comes out the back in her uniform. It's not
38:18her. This one's got a different walk and accent. I'm not in this section. I walked out.
38:35Don't eat me for this, Louis. My producers want to meet you.
38:45Rashid? Rashid, Daniel, Molloy, Raglan, James, Louis, DuPont, Dulac. We all worked together
38:52in Dubai. Virgil Arab. Now Haven Med Senior Care Headquarters. Said I'd introduce you. They
39:02got me on retainer. Not cool, Daniel. We all argued about this color.
39:28What does he know about me? What did you tell him? That you died in 1794 of consumption.
39:37Mercy saved you from the peasant's revenge on our family. I only ever saw the aftermath.
39:44Your slit throat slow to heal. Your rotting roof and pathrobes stuck to skin. An aloof poetry
39:55behind the eyes. Uncanny beauty. Unelusiveness. Come, go. Yes, no. I see why you gave him a daughter. I see
40:12why you took her back.
40:16And we were having such a good night, Sophia. And now we're not. Forget us, honey.
40:34Your father's tongue. It's my tongue. In Italy never made a Baudelaire.
40:41In Italy never made a Baudelaire.
41:15A traver la cité quand dans un choclot
41:20Ils inventent, transformant les bevets en élan
41:24Désinterrent la soif de chaque riais
41:28Et partout, colorant, orange, nature
41:34We shall head home to the tower
41:39The night is young
41:40We travel so fast, we could be there in an hour
41:45I'm on there
41:54I've been asking for a long time
42:03I've been asking for a long time
42:06I've been asking for a long time
42:18I've been searching for love
42:21And I've forgotten
42:26But love is for me
42:30I'm begging for God
42:31I'm begging for you
42:35I'm losing his breath
42:38But love is for me
42:41I'm losing his breath
42:44I'm losing his breath
42:55There is a reason
42:59But love is for me
43:27There were eight people on the ark.
43:29Noah, his wife, his three sons, and their three wives, eight people, and now, somehow,
43:39eight billion.
43:41At some point in your privileged family tree is the thing we are discussing now.
43:47And familiar relations were not a stand-alone crime in the 18th century, and she was dying
43:54when she came to see me.
43:57Fuck it.
43:58It's different for vampires.
44:00That's it.
44:01Distribution of fentanyl for half of Michigan, operation of an unsanctioned and unsanitary
44:07farm from their home, and in a surprising labor of ambition managed to take down the miso
44:13power grid the other night, not the pneumatic tube the upper floor wants to receive.
44:17So real Rashid is really Rashid?
44:20That's his actual name?
44:21Ah, um, I emphasize the first syllable, Rashid, Rashid, do you have a preference?
44:29No.
44:31I have a plane waiting for me.
44:33This coven in Detroit, they were the ones responsible for the damage to your property.
44:38I'm insured, and I knew that already.
44:40They tried to decapitate your love.
44:42What's the ask, Mr. James?
44:47We would like you to take care of our problem in Detroit, Mr. Dulac.
44:54No.
44:54One, we're understaffed and overworked.
44:57The exponential growth in your numbers not helping matters.
45:01Two, the shop's protocols of engagement limit our roles in these kinds of operations.
45:06We clean up, we don't make the mess.
45:10And three, you're extremely skilled at dispatchment, Mr. Dulac.
45:16Paris, Dubai, how many in Dubai, Rashid?
45:2031.
45:2031?
45:2132, if you count Agent Talbot.
45:24No great loss, none of us like too much.
45:26I only kill those who come for me first.
45:28The coven leader's name is Killer.
45:30Tell Vampire Sam I'm gonna need him in Vegas and Reno next month.
45:34Been tracking him since 1925.
45:36A coffin offloaded from a boat out of Copenhagen.
45:40I don't care.
45:42Went by a different name then.
45:44His name was Bruce.
45:50Bruce.
45:52Hmm.
45:54I believe your Claudia spent a few nights with him once.
46:05Listen to tracks from the Vampire List ad wherever you stream music.
46:12Evening then, I'm good to be here.
46:15Give me a million more screams.
46:18Give me a million more screams.
46:19Nicolas D'Enfant.
46:20Restore?
46:21What are you doing in Paris?
46:22Give me a million more screams.
46:25Ah!
46:27Ah!
46:27Ah!
46:28Ah!
46:29Your mother?
46:33I want you to lie enough to give it to me!
46:42How did I get here?
46:43Sophia.
46:44Sophia.
46:46Sophia.
46:46Forgotten my name already?
46:48Hello, Sophia.
46:54Within this context of the failures, the first big failure was the failure of his family unit.
47:00Are you a good boy, Lestat?
47:05Answer your brother, Lestat.
47:07As a kid, his mother was the only person in this very hostile environment who sort of showed him any
47:14sort of affection.
47:15When they first knew each other as humans and Gabriella was Lestat's mother 300 years ago,
47:22they lived in a situation where neither of them had any agency or power.
47:27She had a horrible relationship with her husband and was deeply unhappy and lonely.
47:34There's a lot that you learn about who Lestat is when Gabriella, his mother, shows up.
47:40Now the wolves, they are taking our sheep.
47:43They will snatch a babe soon.
47:45Go on!
47:46There's nothing more we can do here!
47:48But be men!
47:51She knows that if anybody's gonna get up at that table and try to solve this problem with the wolves,
47:57it's going to be Lestat.
47:59The killing of the wolves is connected intrinsically to Gabriella.
48:03Gabriella's saying, go out and be something.
48:08This is Lestat's moment to be like, I'm going to do something.
48:11I'm going to make something of my life and I'm going to go out and kill them, even if I
48:14die.
48:23When Lestat kills the wolves, he's 30 years old.
48:27And in Gabriella's mind, he's been at home longer than he should have.
48:32From room to room, slaughtering the three of them.
48:36That's what I dreamt when I killed the wolves' mother.
48:39That is a shared desire between the two of them.
48:43And then that's given him enough impetus to get out and go and do something.
48:46He goes to Paris, turns into a vampire, his mom's dying, turns his mom into a vampire.
48:57Once Gabriella has turned into a vampire, they both want to go back and kill them, and now they can.
49:09She can now live the life she's always wanted to live, and vampirism liberates her.
49:15I was absolutely drawn to Gabriella's absolute love of being a vampire.
49:24For her, it is almost like a finding of herself, I think.
49:28Or certainly the only time in her life that she has had autonomy and power.
49:35Do you have a lot of sex?
49:37Of course.
49:39Do you like it like you do the blood?
49:42It's never like the blood.
49:43They love each other.
49:44I mean, they're mother and son, and they're lovers.
49:46I mean, and they're fledgling and maker.
49:48And I mean, they have a super complicated relationship.
49:50But they're the only people still alive that both knew each other when they were human.
49:54I think that's really important.
49:55It's like that you know me, who I really am.
49:58You know where I came from.
49:59You know what my fundamental drive is.
50:01And you remember me as a human being before I was this other thing.
50:06So they're deeply connected, and it's toxic.
50:09But you know, everything's toxic in the vampire world.
50:25You stole my personal physician.
50:28You trashed my hotel.
50:29I didn't know you were a detective.
50:30The Detroit Coven trashed your hotel.
50:32I've heard the songs.
50:32The songs are not about you.
50:34It feels like a cry for help.
50:37So I flew in, because I care.
50:40I think Louie's being a complete troll in that scene.
50:43He gets off on making this that angry, I think, to some extent.
50:46Did you take turns driving across the Golden Gate Bridge?
50:50You held the wheel harder.
50:51Writing numbers on each other's backs and pretending to guess them wrong.
50:55I bet.
50:56I bet!
50:57It's a really fun scene.
50:59It's a real attack.
51:00And he knows he's going to rile him up.
51:02It was quite strange to go from being this, like, very strong-centered vampire
51:09to being just sort of petty.
51:12Christine, could you please provide two tickets to Mr. Pitt here and his Esquire for tomorrow night's show?
51:18One will do.
51:19Lemuel doesn't enjoy your music.
51:22As petty as he's been, I think Louie is looking forward to seeing Lestat's show.
51:29I was afraid, I was afraid, I was afraid of Louie.
51:37I think he's also impressed.
51:39This is what he should have always been doing.
51:41I was afraid, I was afraid, I was afraid of Louie.
51:50It could be about Nicky, it could be about Gabriella.
51:51It's very on brand for Louie to think every song is about him.
51:55And then on another level, I think there's probably like a gossipy side of Louie that's like,
51:59who's this about?
52:00When did this happen?
52:02Who is that?
52:02Who is he?
52:03Who is she?
52:04It could be about just the fact that why does he have to feel in general?
52:06Because he's a very emotive character and he kind of gets totally riled up in his own emotions
52:11and he'll ride them.
52:12So, I think that can be a frustrating thing.
52:15I mean, he's obviously doing a very intensely power thrusting version of the song
52:20and intentionally ignoring Louie until he can't anymore.
52:57When he gets the book and he sees that it's all scribbled and scrawled and I think it's when
53:03the guilt really starts to creep in.
53:05This is the first time they've had a little private moment about it.
53:08Louie has that kind of effect on the start that he, you know, will get so angry that
53:12it will freeze time and fly up to him and sing in his face.
53:16Oh, why, why, why, why do I have to feel the pain, there's too much to heal.
53:42It will� show us privately and it will always send your House Ones thôi
53:43Yeah, on the end of the day, you heard it would.
53:54Here, you know, the Shut earth will come to mind, bouroom Publess Tânia.
53:54Yeah, you can't wait, what you say is that there is no way to wisdom.
53:55Yeah, it will.
