I think it’s deeper still; “The Gift” what was the “gift” IMMORTALITY! What this could not be prevented? The death of his mother, clinching the air? His brother falling from the roof! Him losing the nite club he owned. Grace children and why Claudia began calling Louis brother Lou. The background is who can deal with immortality if they can not separate oneself from attachment. Here is where we shall tie in Armand.

I doubt they'll weave anything from the book The Vampire Armand, but he give us his "real" first hand account there.

Remember the only one in that room that knows what happened after Louis was taken away is Armand, and he's always fuckin with people memories.

Armand is a lying liar who lies. He put the whole coven to sleep an episode ago and stopped time but just couldn’t save Claudia. He’s a liar. He wanted Claudia dead. Louis fans never hold him accountable for anything. It’s always Lestat’s fault! Please! Louis’s actions caused that town to be burned down, and he sentenced Claudia to her ultimate fate! He bares a lot of responsibility for what happened with her!

People like this Lestat fan are so mad at Armand. Yet in the show, this version of Armand had SAID he regretted it in the presence, AND he saved Louis, in the book, Armand didnt care at all what he did, dont effin compare the book Armand to this version. Unlike, Lestat who sit there and did NOTHING. I dont care what the book said, THE SHOW IS EFFIN DIFFERENT! In the book, Lestat looked unkept but had good clothes to wear, BEGGED Santiago to let Louis go. But in this show, he looked the same, no scars, no nothing! And he was effin ignorant and wanted BOTH of them to die. And, funny, NOBODY was angry at Lestat who abuses him physical in season one, which the REAL Lestat (I wish they were accurate to the book Lestat) would NEVER do. Not to mention, Lestat in the show LIED in some of his statements, too, like how Louis stalked him, told the vampire laws. But to be honest, ALL are to blame the theatre of the vampires, Louis, Lestat, Armand. But, seeing you are effin bias, your review is irrelevant.

No its just common sense but your too biased realize its right in front of your face....If the you and show writers wanted Armand to look like a plasusible 'victim' they shouldve taken a couple of liberties 1. Maybe you shouldnt tell your audience this man has the ability to erase/plant false memeories 2.Maybe you shouldnt tell your audience this man can control peoples minds get them to do/say things they would not normally do/say (Lestat was looked at Armand when he said Nicky had help unaliving himself...idk you may have missed that) 3.Maybe you should not reveal to your audience that this man can freeze an ENTIRE RESTAURANT IN THEIR TRACKS AND FACEPLANT A TABLE A VAMPIRES WITH THE FLICK OF THE WRIST Now explain to me again why we should believe this powerful entity Armand was so easily subdued in the timeout corner 'guarded' by the vampire Sam....Strength wise one of weakest in the coven? STOP IT!!! ARMAND IS LYING😂
