Nandor's okay, you're okay, and Guillermo is… not really okay as TV's funniest vampire comedy finally comes back
: Guillermo’s decision to bribe his buddy Derek to finally turn him into a vampire.plays coy with the results for most of “The Mall”’s runtime, briefly flirting with the idea of walking it back completely, which would have been a pretty big bummer for a series that can sometimes be a bitin love with its “Nothing ever actually changes around here” ethos.
It’s partly how “The Mall” keeps the show’s status quo intact amidst a hypothetically monumental change. The other part is a mid-birthday reveal that there’s no faux pas more embarrassing than a familiar going behind his master’s back to get transformed. Why, if Nandor found out Guillermo had violated the trust of their relationship like that, he’d have to kill him and then kill himself! And, yeah, all of these conflicts are just so much oil to keep the plot engine running.
As is often the case with What We Do In The Shadows, “The Mall” mostly celebrates how good it is to be back with these assholes again. The central five characters are so consistently well-drawn, so individually awful, that it can take a few months away from them for the joy of the performances to come back front and center again.
