Update: I've edited a sentence in the opening of the video with the KZfaq Editor for clarity. Previously, it sounded like I was giving Daniel and the Talamasca credit for burning the coven. The audio skips a bit. Sorry for that. My old comment below: Minor Correction: In opening of video a line was mistakenly cut out in final edit. Before "Thanks to Daniel Molly & the Talasmaca.." I was supposse to say "Louis & Armand had a falling out." It sounds like I'm saying the coven got its just deserts thanks to Daniel. Though Armand was part of the coven...and he did get his just deserts in this episode... so it still makes sense maybe. Sorry.

I believe when Louie kept repeating Claudia is dead I was dead. That last I was dead is when he accepted who he is. Amazing writing, videography, music choices and ACTING. Wonderful just Wonderful. Let’s GO season 3!

The Talamaca knew how dangerous Louis was because of Lestat being his maker. Louis is much more powerful then even he realized because he was running from his vampiric nature. But when he was crazy and hellbent on revenge - he was a force to be reckoned with. It also took Claudia a much longer time to die from the sunlight because she too carried the blood of Akasha from Lestat. In the book "The Vampire Lestat" Lestat becomes a rock star singing about being a vampire in order to draw fire from the vamps going after Louis. So even though they don't resume their romantic relationship, the love is true and they always come to protect each other. (Although they are endgame) Lestat & Daniel both work to protect Louis until things flip when Akasha awakens. Something to think about - Armand said he preserved Louis happiness. Daniel made Louis happy. Maybe his turning Daniel wasn't fully out of spite. Perhaps it was as apology gift to Louis. Perhaps it's because Armand finally found someone who could best him & hold his own against him. And by being his maker - he would always have someone he couldn't read and would therefore be a match for his own mind. Or perhaps Daniel wanted the gift. We'll see in season three, perhaps?
