Okay, picture this: you're a vampire, but instead of brooding in a castle, you're sharing a house in Staten Island with your eccentric roommates. That's basically the setup for What We Do In The Shadows, and the Season 3 finale is a wild ride you absolutely won't forget.
We're diving into Season 3, Episode 10. Forget fancy explanations; let's talk about the stuff that makes us laugh, gasp, and maybe even tear up (just a little!).
A Grand Departure (Or Two!)
The big theme here is change, and boy, does it hit hard! Nandor, our favorite lovesick warrior, decides he needs some self-discovery.
He packs his bags (or, more accurately, has Guillermo pack them), determined to see the world. He's off on a "spiritual journey" that probably involves a lot of awkward conversations with monks.
Laszlo's Unexpected Dad Moment
Then, there's Laszlo. Always the horny one, with a heart of gold surprisingly shows up when you least expected. We find out he's been secretly sending money to a scientist in England.
The plot thickens as it's revealed that it's all for his son, Colin Robinson! Not the energy vampire we know and...tolerate, but a little baby version of him with a lightbulb head!
Laszlo wants to protect him from turning into an energy vampire. His decision to stay behind is surprisingly touching. He wants to watch him grow and learn.
Nadja's Big Break
Nadja, our fierce and ambitious vampire queen, finally gets what she's been working towards. She has been appointed to the Supreme Vampiric Council.
She's off to London to be a boss! Even better, she's taking Guillermo with her as her bodyguard.
Guillermo's Dilemma
Speaking of Guillermo, our poor, put-upon familiar faces a tough decision. For years, he's been devoted to Nandor.
But now, Nandor is leaving and Guillermo is being offered a chance to shine with Nadja. Will he follow his heart or stick with his (sometimes infuriating) master?
The Emotional Punch
What makes this episode so good isn't just the humor. It's the surprisingly heartfelt moments. We see these characters, who are usually so caught up in their own ridiculousness, actually care about each other.
Laszlo's sacrifice for his son, Nadja's genuine appreciation for Guillermo, and even Nandor's awkward attempts at self-improvement—it all adds up to something surprisingly sweet.
Why It Works
The genius of What We Do In The Shadows is how it blends the absurd with the relatable. Yes, these are vampires who drink blood and turn into bats.
But they also struggle with loneliness, ambition, and the desire to connect with others. It’s the perfect mix of silly and sincere. The finale leaves us wanting more!
Season 3 wraps up with everyone scattered to the winds, ready for new adventures (and probably new misadventures). And honestly, we can't wait to see what happens next!
