What We Do in the Shadows Recap: Wall Street Vampires

Nandor and Guillermo need to have a talk.

Here’s an irony for you: After 15 years of longing to become a vampire, Guillermo has finally become a bloodthirsty parasitic monster who views humanity as little more than, as Nadja puts it, “grease for the filthy wheels of commerce.” And he did it by getting a job at Cannon Capital. At the end of season five, he made a more definitive break — if you can call peeing in a bucket in a shack behind the mansion a “break.” (Given his attempts to convince himself that leveraged buyouts are good, denial is still one of Guillermo’s superpowers.) As Nadja points out as she and Laszlo stroll the boarded-up streets of a small New England town decimated by the Hancock & Sons buyout — again, the monstrousness of venture capital forms a literal backdrop — they haven’t had much time alone recently, either.
