I can't believe we're being served a found family relationship moment- Nadja going feral to save THEIR FAMILIAR and literally keeping his secret, Guillermo's weak ass high af power finally working at its peak to save and help Nadja, Nandor dragging Collin Robinson who continuously being weaker and weaker the more interesting he becomes, and practically risking his life to transfer energy to Collin Robinson, and Collin Robinson essentially reviving Nandor, Lazlo just using science to try and help everyone. Like they would clearly just risk everything and do what they have to do FOR EACH OTHER.
My interpretation of what I saw in the S5 trailer leads me to believe that:
Guillermo tells Laszlo about his failed transformation but he wants to keep it a secret from Nandor. And since Laszlo did all of that research on energy vampires for Colin Robinson, he’s the best chance that Guillermo has on figuring out what’s wrong with him, therefore Laszlo will take him under his wing.
Which will, in turn, make Nandor confused and curious (and very jealous) about why Laszlo and Guillermo are spending so much time together.
its so shocking to me the direction theyve decided to take with the vampires this season. In the past seasons the only time nadja nador and laszlo have been united was in their theme of vampires live forever and so it makes sense theyre assholes. I love them all but theyre jerks who mistreat everyone and anyone, often without even realizing it.
But... thats not true anymore. Last season saw laszlo raise a kid, and care about him. He felt bad when he forgot it all. He cared and he got hurt, thats soemthing the other vampires havent let themselves really truely do. And the thing is, Laszlo seems changed for it. He notices something is up with Guillermo, he offers advice, and proabbbly is even going to offer help. Hes kind to Nandor, and admits hsi own faults. The way he had been acting before wasnt a product of his vampire nature, vampires can be kind and caring.
Contrasting that is Nadja who is as selfish and concided as ever. Hurting the person shes closest with(dolly) and not even being able to recognize its her own fault. No one helps her, no one cares about her issues, and she has no close female friends. The guide once again is mistreated due to the truely horrible crime of wanting friends. And the guide really poses a serious question into the way the coven are living. Theyre assholes to other vampires, not just humans, like theyve led guillermo to believe.
Nadjas activily mirroring Nandor in the past few seasons. She has someone who looks up to her, cares about her, and shes treating her like shit. And finally nandor is unchanged as always( the last remant of the idea that vampires dont change) leading guillermo on then getting upset when he wants to be a vampire. The only differnce now is that he doesnt have his normal defense anymore. Laszlos changed and grown, whats Nandors excuse?
Okay so I love how S5E1 started with Guillermo seemingly being “wrong” about Nandor doing nice things for him in the past with there being no montage put in
…but then they show so many times in the same episode that Nandor goes out of his way to check in on Guillermo when he notices that something is off with him, thinks they forgot his birthday and takes him out to a restaurant for it, looks for birthday presents at the mall for him, and gets him a footlocker when he heard Guillermo mention he wants one
It’s painfully obvious how much he cares about Guillermo, and of course he’s a himbo about it like he is with everything, but he’s genuinely trying and it’s so cute
I can totally believe that Laszlo really didn’t think about making Guillermo drink human blood because he’s actually a bit of an idiot like that. But.
Who says he didn’t do it on purpose? I mean, if Guillermo transformed fully Nandor would have sensed it immediately. Also he was kinda trying to reverse it so it would have been against their interests to make the change complete.
Also also he was having so much fun with his little experiments, he even managed to find a way to walk into the sun! Guillermo becoming a normal vampire would have put a stop to all that and I bet Laszlo didn’t want that at all.
