That’s how the fight happened in season 1. We just didn’t get this perspective. The damage to the coffin was present in season 1 after the fight. Enjoyed your reaction! Thanks for posting.
If you are familiar with the book, Lestat was physically still recovering. The coven forced Lestat to travel to Paris for the trial. Lestat was under duress. Armand made no effort to help Claudia because she was in the way. He wanted Louis. In the books following IWTV, just about everyone had issues with Armand. Lestat was right about changing children and mentally disabled because their appetite would be uncontrollable and they would have little comprehension how to manage their new powers.
Armand - in fact none of the vampires - are able to control a large number of people for a very long time. It still takes a lot of energy to control people. You saw Lestat bleeding from his ears and collapsing from making all those soldiers leave the house. Their strength isn' limitless. Not even Armand's. If Armand could do EVERYTHING, then plots would be boring. It could all be easily explained away with "Well, he's the strongest so he can make that happen. He's manipulating everyone's head" - well, no. The writers can't rely on any of them being massively powerful so they can do everything. Also, you can tell when Lestat is on script (when he's talking about how Louis stalked him instead) and when he's off script. When he's *off* script, the theater vamps are panicking and confused because they can't control him - Santiago interrupts him, someone gives Lestat his lines, etc. When he's *on* the script, he recites the lines the theater vampires wrote to make Louis seem dangerous and therefore, guilty. It wasn't ever meant to be a fair trial - its still a play. Lestat's playing along but they're unable to force him to do everything. Louis says plainly that Lestat's version of Claudia's turning was correct. Lestat is the one who advocated for her to not be damned to an torturous eternity. And he DID tell Louis about the Great Laws. He advocated for her to be treated like an adult and like the excellent predator she was. He was the one to advocate for her to get her final words before death. He tried to get them out of being killed by saying "If they're guilty, then I'm guilty too." And as for the fight last season, when Lestat says "I'm trying to restrain myself!" & "I don't wanna fight like this any more!" - YOU CAN HEAR IT LOUD AND CLEAR WHILE CLAUDIA IS RUNNING UP THE STAIRS. He tries to deescalate twice - which is what he should do since he was the one who choked Claudia. She sits down and you can hear them in the coffin room. Louis has ALWAYS talked to people like that. Did it to Paul, did it to Daniel, did it to Lestat, did it Armand.
if you go back and rewatch the fight in episode 5 season 1, you can hear lestat in the background saying that he doesn’t want to fight louis and that he’s trying to restrain himself!
Loved your reaction. And this show always create great discussion. Tbh Louis is very much a victim, but he also has some anger issues I think. Like he just lashes out sometimes. Even in season 1 we saw it when he broke his sister’s door when he got mad. But it was still shocking to see that fight scene from a different perspective.
We still don't know if this is Lestat's version because Lestat isn't telling the story. Armand and Luis is telling the story. Lestat is telling his side in Season 3 but it does'n't mean Lestat's version is going to be 100% true. The truth is in the middle
This has nothing to do with IWTV, but you have beautiful bone structure. You should model, seriously. Thank you so much for the reaction. I can't wait for you to react to the next episode. Also, watch the season 3 trailer, you'll be surprised.
Great 👍 response I am like crip keeper old but I think we all know an eternal beauty when we see it. It is fun to see all you young pups enjoy literature in this form.
16:15 yeah, you're absolutely right that he was having an affair with Antoinette BEFORE Claudia left!... There are inconsistencies in the play compared to what we saw in the show (additionally lestat says that he like slept for a hundred years in the ground in the play... but there are things that he has said in season 1 that contradict that narrative... so he most likely wasn't asleep for that long of a period of time) but the flashbacks that they showed in this episode were the real situation. And there's details pointing towards that in season 1 as well... The verbal dialogue in the fight scene is heard but you dont visually what happens... And there is damage to the coffin in season 1 after episode 5 and fans were kind of creating theories as to how the coffin could have got damaged... They SHOW us how it happened in this episode. So thats interesting! Most of the theories i saw were that it had been damaged at some point during the fight... they just never actually showed it in season 1. And there are some EXTREMELY passionate fans in this fandom that absolutely do look at those tiny background details that most casual watchers will absolutely not notice... There's fans in this show that prior to season 2 being released were looking at stills that have been released and tiny clips in the trailers and analyzing the characters clothing to determine when in time that scene happens by looking at how the characters hairstyles and what period style of clothing they are wearing. Its interesting to see the breakdowns of it on tumblr and twitter. Some fans have eagle eyes with the details they are able to spot! Another really interesting one is when Lestat is reading that letter to Louis at the lawyers place... Some people zoomed in and looked at the actual written contents of the letter... And it kind of points to Lestat being illiterate. There's some misspelled words. Waste instead of waist and stuff like that (tiny little mistakes that someone who isn't fluent in English would make)... Cause, in the book, Lestat was illiterate as a human. Granted, he is able to teach himself to read and write VERY quickly after turning into a vampire because vampires pick up on skills extremely quickly... But yeah it looks like the physical prop of the letter might have been a little Easter egg about that... Or it could be nothing and we fans are just insane 🤣🤣🤣

You definitely have to pay attention to details when it comes to this show. Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching!
his memory is distorted cause of armand dudes been being manipulated for 77 years at this point

I almost dislocated my middle fingers by flipping off Armand every time he opened his mouth
@@dovike.V. I know the feeling lol

@@ms.battle9055 Yes everything is still technically up in the air but I have a strong feeling next season this won’t be re-visited.
