00:00:30There are stories out there that need to be told. There's shit out there that's just, you know, wrong.
00:00:37People need to know about it. That's the job. It's not a complicated job other than how it'll mess with your life.
00:00:44News used to be a bunch of guys who looked like me, huddled around a desk at a page one meeting deciding what the news was.
00:00:51This little fucker changed all of that.
00:00:55I've been fired from three papers, hired back at two of them, third got gobbled up by Nate Ritter.
00:00:59So to be clear here, I'm a goddamn reservoir of do's and don'ts.
00:01:03Your sources are your sherpas. Your editor is your priest.
00:01:07Honesty is not a tactic.
00:01:11You still want this job? It's your money.
00:01:14I'm Daniel Malloy. This is my-
00:01:17Russian-backed separatists have been waging guerrilla warfare since 2014.
00:01:20Can he make his fantasy a reality?
00:01:23Walker shoots off at the key. High pick and roll from Jones.
00:01:26Walker drives and finishes with just a hand.
00:01:29That's seven straight for Walker.
00:01:48Yeah, hey Doc. Yeah, thanks for getting back to me.
00:01:52Yes, that's right. I have an appointment scheduled for later in the week.
00:01:55But the thing I'm trying to figure out is what's the deal with this sub-variant business?
00:01:59I mean, is that more contagious? Is it-
00:02:02Uh-huh. Yeah, because I mean, there's no reason to get more-
00:02:06Okay. So you think-
00:02:09Yeah, I mean, that's what I'm thinking. Why get any closer to the bug than I need to?
00:02:14Uh-huh. Uh-huh.
00:02:17Uh-huh.
00:02:21I gotta call you back.
00:02:45Um, first question.
00:02:48You weren't always a vampire, were you?
00:02:51No. I was a 33-year-old man when I became a vampire.
00:02:57How did it come about?
00:02:59There's a simple answer to that.
00:03:01I don't believe I want to give simple answers.
00:03:05I think I want to tell the real story.
00:03:08Dear Mr. Malloy, I hope this letter finds you safe and thriving, if such a thing were a possibility in this bleak hour.
00:03:23I've been following your career with some interest since our last meeting.
00:03:27Please allow me to congratulate you on all your successes, those professional and those personally redemptive.
00:03:36The passage of time and the frailties that accompany it have provided me perspective, and I suspect the same might be for you as well.
00:03:45I'm hoping health and pride won't deter you from the following proposal.
00:03:50In a week's time, in a setting of my choosing, we revisit the project boyish youth prevented us from finishing.
00:03:58Forty-nine years and thousands of miles removed from the room we shared in San Francisco, I offer, for your journalistic pleasures, my full attention and my life story.
00:04:11All affinities, Louis DuPont Dulac.
00:04:16I told my editor I was meeting with the most dangerous man in the world.
00:04:21Gave him two choices. He came back with Bezos, Putin.
00:04:25He thinks I'm in Praskovoyevka.
00:04:28You've grown old, Daniel.
00:04:32Yeah, well, mortality beats a heavy drum.
00:04:37I wasn't sure you've remembered me. Your book makes no mention of our prior meeting.
00:04:43Gritty memoir, drugs, humiliation, self-pity kind of thing.
00:04:48Mention vampires in one of those, readers tend to call bullshit.
00:04:52You've had some health concerns of late.
00:04:54Whole planet's having a moment, I'd say.
00:04:56You have Parkinson's disease, Daniel.
00:05:00Yeah. And you've got your own hangar at the airport, privileges on the Royal Maydan Bridge, and zero presence online.
00:05:07Have I hit a nerve?
00:05:09I know the Emiratis are big on privacy, and that's probably important to you, but I gotta ask.
00:05:14What does it cost, this having aged in half a century, killer views in all directions, anonymity?
00:05:20Quite a lot.
00:05:24Only my family and my doctor know I'm sick.
00:05:27I don't dig the one-way hack, yeah?
00:05:30And here's another question.
00:05:32That's the sun out there. Where's your coffin?
00:05:37You're standing in it.
00:05:44I have to be very careful.
00:05:48I have to be very careful whom I let in.
00:06:03Yeah, well, things didn't end well the last time.
00:06:06So, forgive me if I'm a little nervous.
00:06:11This, after all I've told you, is what you asked for, man!
00:06:16You don't know what human life is like! I mean, you've forgotten, man!
00:06:21I mean, you don't even understand the meaning of your own story!
00:06:27No! Hey, stop!
00:06:32You were disrespectful.
00:06:34I was high.
00:06:36You were not worthy of my story then.
00:06:38Maybe your story wasn't worth telling.
00:06:42You've got the tapes. Hire a transcriber.
00:06:45I don't do puff portraiture anymore.
00:06:48And yet you got on a plane with an autoimmune disease in the middle of a pandemic.
00:06:56All right.
00:07:00That's my voice, but I don't remember it.
00:07:04I ask all the wrong questions.
00:07:06Yes.
00:07:07There's contradictions in your story I never follow up on.
00:07:09Yes.
00:07:10The few good ones I do manage to get out, you steamroll over them.
00:07:13It's not an interview. It's a...
00:07:15It's a fever dream told to an idiot.
00:07:18Yes.
00:07:20And you?
00:07:23Why again? What's changed?
00:07:25The world.
00:07:27Circumstances.
00:07:29Me, I've changed.
00:07:33And I, too, find the tapes lacking.
00:07:37So...
00:07:39A do-over.
00:07:44Truth and reconciliation.
00:07:49I ask the questions. You answer the questions.
00:07:51Anything that can't be verified, I send to my researcher.
00:07:54No third parties.
00:07:56I write it. You get to see it before it goes to print.
00:07:58I get the final edit.
00:07:59That is not the agreement you signed.
00:08:01And one more thing.
00:08:03I do my best work one-on-one.
00:08:05Would you see to Mr. Malloy's rule?
00:08:08Have Chef prepare a meal for him.
00:08:10I think it best we start when our boy's had a rest.
00:08:12I'm not your fucking boy.
00:08:14I'm an old man with all the triggers that come with it.
00:08:18And I'm ready.
00:08:20So let's do this.
00:08:25I'm Daniel Malloy. It is 1008 in the morning on June 14th, 2022.
00:08:31I'm in the penthouse apartment of the Al Sharaf Towers...
00:08:34...across from Mr...
00:08:36...Louis DuPont Dulac.
00:08:39So...
00:08:41...Mr. Dulac...
00:08:43...how long have you been dead?
00:08:50The year was 1910.
00:08:52The fall of the fifth year of my father's passing...
00:08:55...and the fall of the fifth year...
00:08:57...as the executor in charge of the DuPont Dulac Family Trust.
00:09:00The eldest son.
00:09:01The favored son.
00:09:03A sizable trust to oversee as a consequence.
00:09:06Capital accrued from plantations of sugar...
00:09:08...and the blood of men who looked like my great-grandfather...
00:09:11...but did not have his standing.
00:09:13But then decades of Jim Crow...
00:09:15...and the electrified light of a new century...
00:09:17...had vanquished any idea of a free man of color.
00:09:20So it followed the only place in New Orleans...
00:09:22...a gentleman of my complexion could do a righteous business...
00:09:25...was a neighborhood called Storyville.
00:09:27That was the old red light district, yeah?
00:09:30Three blocks of drinking, gambling, and gluttonous whoring.
00:09:34Okay, so as the honorable executor of the family's estate...
00:09:38...you were in what business exactly, Mr. Dulac?
00:09:41You could say I managed and operated...
00:09:43...a diversified portfolio of enterprises.
00:09:46You were a pimp.
00:09:48The product was desire.
00:09:50And it came in as many forms as there were ways to move it.
00:09:53The two dozen sporting houses on Liberty Street...
00:09:55...I owned eight of them.
00:09:57They were the smallest in proportion to the venues on Basin Street.
00:10:00But they lacked in size and elegance.
00:10:02They more than made up for in efficiency and reputation.
00:10:05Mr. Dulac!
00:10:07Yeah?
00:10:09You hiding any bills in them fat fucking rows of yours?
00:10:12I was, admittedly, a rougher thing then.
00:10:15Mr. Dulac!
00:10:17You had to be if you wanted to survive.
00:10:19You couldn't look weak on Liberty Street.
00:10:21Damn, Doris, you're gonna lose your good leg running out like that.
00:10:24Mr. Dulac, sir, we got bad trouble.
00:10:27I apologize, I apologize, I apologize.
00:10:31I was only trying to show you my love.
00:10:33Fuck you!
00:10:35What happened?
00:10:36The cunny hit me!
00:10:37Oh, I'm a cunny now. A minute ago I was his love.
00:10:42Altamont family?
00:10:44Hitting Altamont? God damn it, Briggs.
00:10:47He stuck it in my shit box.
00:10:48I did no such thing.
00:10:50Gave him a chance to pull out, he kept on fucking.
00:10:52Thank my catfish dinner for going there.
00:10:54Don't believe me? Check his dick.
00:10:56Who the fuck you talking to? I ain't checking no man's dick.
00:10:59Oh, God damn.
00:11:00Hell, I might have even said yes if you'd just asked,
00:11:02but I don't care who he is.
00:11:03You put a dick in an asshole without asking, that's against Jesus.
00:11:05Fuck you!
00:11:07What y'all laughing at?
00:11:08Someone go fetch Doc Johnson.
00:11:10And you get some clean water and a towel.
00:11:16Get your hands off me, nigger!
00:11:19You gonna make me regret my support.
00:11:20You repeat yourself, Mr. Fenwick.
00:11:24You eat at Pond Du Lac, sir?
00:11:27Oh, Pond Du Lac.
00:11:29Oh, forgive me.
00:11:33There's so much wine.
00:11:34Don't worry none.
00:11:35We don't keep this here between us.
00:11:37So we got the good Doc on the way.
00:11:41Oh, Miss Williams.
00:11:43Isn't she a vision?
00:11:45I ain't cleaning his dick.
00:11:46Oh, Jesus Mary.
00:11:48We got a situation here, Finn.
00:11:49Yeah, well, you got another one outside 122.
00:11:51A man acting a maggot, driving away business.
00:11:53Isn't that what I pay you for?
00:11:55No.
00:11:56It's a citizen priest.
00:11:58Do you not realize, sister, your body is part of Christ the Lord?
00:12:01Second time this month.
00:12:02Will you take that body and enjoy it?
00:12:03And I can give two moons if he's your brother, Mr. Du Lac.
00:12:05I'm gonna knock his door in the fucking train.
00:12:07Permission, ma'am.
00:12:09No.
00:12:14Go on home.
00:12:15Tell my ma not to wait up.
00:12:17There's blood on your shirt.
00:12:19What wickedness is it tonight?
00:12:20You're not helping me here, Paul.
00:12:21Oh, but I am.
00:12:23The Lord told me to come, Louie.
00:12:26In my head, like a family of birds, many voices, but also one voice.
00:12:29Say it a second time.
00:12:31Listen to me, please.
00:12:32You're having a fucking night, okay?
00:12:34I can't have it with you.
00:12:39Get on home.
00:12:40Else I'll beat you like a cauchon, bro.
00:12:48Did I want to pull a knife on my brother?
00:12:51No.
00:12:52But, as I alluded to before,
00:12:55you couldn't look weak on liberty.
00:12:58You never knew who was watching.
00:13:06He pulled his knife on me, ma'am.
00:13:07You were disrupting Mother's business in Arrest.
00:13:09You hear that, Mother?
00:13:11He's made you a matter.
00:13:12No, Paul.
00:13:13Profiting from the damnation of soul.
00:13:15Let's not fuss on the particulars.
00:13:17Mornings with my family followed a pattern that year.
00:13:20My mother consumed herself with preparations for my sister's wedding,
00:13:24while Paul confused the dining table with a pulpit none of us would recognize.
00:13:29We should tie the door to St. Augustine's before this house falls in on us.
00:13:32This is just a temporary situation until Louie can find us a more respectable business.
00:13:37Daddy was here. We'd still be in Sugarcane.
00:13:39Daddy was alive. You'd still be locked up in that hospital in Jackson.
00:13:42Louie, let's not have that talk.
00:13:44A month from my wedding day, and what do I dream about?
00:13:47Dancing in my husband's arms?
00:13:48Children running in the yard?
00:13:50No.
00:13:51I dream of what a quiet breakfast might look like.
00:13:53Your man Levy's a Baptist. No respect for the Holy Mother.
00:13:56Paul!
00:13:57He's going to make your daughter jump a broom.
00:13:58I'm sitting right here.
00:13:59Plenty of brooms down the street at the Mayfair Sisters' home.
00:14:02He's calling me a witch, Maumau.
00:14:04Baldy punch you, Lottie. Walk that back.
00:14:08Your brother sounds like a pain in the ass.
00:14:10Fragile, stubborn, indulged.
00:14:13I'd promised our father on his deathbed to look after him.
00:14:16But when Paul's mind was right, he was no burden.
00:14:19Point of fact, I loved him more than anyone on earth.
00:14:23And our daily stroll to St. Augustine was the measure of a good day started.
00:14:28Good morning, Paul.
00:14:29Good for you, maybe.
00:14:31Good morning, Louie.
00:14:32Hugh's got a good shine.
00:14:34If it wasn't beneath you, I'd say a shoe's your weight.
00:14:37Nothing is beneath me, son.
00:14:38I'm ready, Father.
00:14:41I wanted to thank the family for last Sunday's donation.
00:14:44Babysitting money. Church comms a thousand.
00:14:46Well, we're always here for them.
00:14:48And the money goes a good way towards the renovation.
00:14:50I want Father Matthias. Thank you.
00:14:53Ain't got nothing to confess to, anyhow. Wasting a good man's time.
00:14:56Be right there, Paul.
00:14:59I haven't seen you in confession of late, Louie.
00:15:03You know you can always come here if you're in need, son.
00:15:10My business and my raised religion were at odds.
00:15:14And the, uh...
00:15:16Latencies within me?
00:15:19Well, I beat those back with a lie I told myself about myself.
00:15:23That I was a red-blooded son of the South, seeking ass before absolution.
00:15:28And you maintain this delusion? How exactly?
00:15:31A particular woman who worked for the competition.
00:15:35As if rickety shacks were a competition for Tom Anderson's fair play saloon.
00:15:40Ah, Louis Delon. The night begins.
00:15:43Miss Carol. Miss Lily working tonight?
00:15:45Miss Lily's on the terrace.
00:15:47It was a palace of opulence and splendor.
00:15:50Sazerac, Mr. Delon.
00:15:52That'll do fine, Miss Carol.
00:15:53And catered to an almost exclusively Caucasian clientele.
00:15:56Which helped me separate the locals from those visiting from other southern states.
00:16:02I'm shaking the money tree tonight, I see, Mr. Anderson.
00:16:05Can't see the dirt from the dollar's falling.
00:16:07Private game on Friday if your date book is free, Louis.
00:16:10Can do, Mr. Anderson. Can do.
00:16:27I don't know much what you're saying.
00:16:29But it sure sounds nice.
00:16:31Only the impossible can do the impossible.
00:16:34Miss Lily.
00:16:36Bonsoir, monsieur.
00:16:38You speak French?
00:16:39We speak all sorts of tongues in New Orleans.
00:16:42It's a hard table to get. How'd you manage?
00:16:44How'd you manage to get yourself through the front door?
00:16:47Excuse me?
00:16:48I mean that as a compliment, the man of your race, to have privileges here.
00:16:52Louis has a small empire of his own down the street.
00:16:55He gets some privileges.
00:16:57Something funny about that?
00:17:00Your name is Louis.
00:17:02Of course it's Louis.
00:17:04I didn't get your name, fella.
00:17:06Je suis désolé. Je m'amuse trop en privé.
00:17:09I know who you are, sir.
00:17:11You're the man who made me buy a townhouse in the corner.
00:17:14I owe you everything. Please join us.
00:17:18I know sometimes men of my race, we all look alike to you people.
00:17:23But I didn't say you know townhouse.
00:17:25Louis, have a seat.
00:17:27Let me explain. New to the new world I am.
00:17:31That explains the clothes.
00:17:33Nineteenth century man at heart, yes?
00:17:35Making his transatlantic journey by ship.
00:17:37Planning very carefully on settling myself off river.
00:17:40The size are excellent.
00:17:42Put that on my account, thank you.
00:17:43And two more for us.
00:17:44And another round for the musicians.
00:17:45Whatever they want.
00:17:46Ils sont toujours obligés.
00:17:48Yes, sir.
00:17:49Where was I?
00:17:51On a boat.
00:17:58So I'm out on the Crescent Coast, floating past your village,
00:18:02when I hear music playing.
00:18:04Shadows of men and women, dancing by the water's edge.
00:18:08I disembarked for the music, but then...
00:18:11there was food.
00:18:13What's been your favorite this year? The salient coup?
00:18:15A favorite?
00:18:16She puts a pistol to my head.
00:18:19I couldn't believe it.
00:18:22Staring me down as his hands went wandering the seams of Miss Lily's dress.
00:18:27I wanted to take the end of my cane and slit his throat with it.
00:18:31Why didn't you?
00:18:33I couldn't move.
00:18:35My body was seized with weakness.
00:18:39His gaze tied a string around my lungs,
00:18:44and I found myself immobilized.
00:18:48And the women, all shades of skin.
00:18:52White, black, cinnamon.
00:18:56I've emptied a bank vault, simply men must say,
00:18:59but it was not until a few nights later,
00:19:02when I saw a man coming out of his cane,
00:19:05and pressing the blade against the sternum of his chest,
00:19:09that I said to myself...
00:19:12Let's start. Unpack your trunks. You're home.
00:19:17What do you say to this now?
00:19:19No more, Nisha.
00:19:21I had planned to make a new life for myself in St. Louis.
00:19:25That was to be my destiny.
00:19:28And now I know I was right.
00:19:31Only it turns out the saint is not a sitter,
00:19:34but a handsome man with a most agreeable disposition.
00:19:38You're his destiny, Louis.
00:19:41Destined to be very good friends.
00:19:44The oreo plume is available for the next few hours, Miss Lily.
00:19:48The gentlemen will swap them out, the sausage recipe isn't scary.
00:19:56The oreo plume is yours, monsieur.
00:19:58Please get my friend to hear anything he wants.
00:20:01Wonderful to meet you. I do hope I run into you again, Lily.
00:20:05Emasculation and admiration in equal measure.
00:20:10I wanted to murder the man,
00:20:13and I wanted to be the man.
00:20:16I wanted to kill the man,
00:20:19and I wanted to be the man.
00:20:22I wanted to murder the man, and I wanted to be the man.
00:20:30I had come there for Lily,
00:20:33but I left thinking of only him.
00:20:52Chagrin
00:21:11Come now.
00:21:15Who the devil...
00:21:23No!
00:21:30The police tell me there's an outbreak of fever in town.
00:21:33It's unfortunate it's living near the wharf, mostly.
00:21:36You find yourself riverside in a caterer, you have only yourself to blame, I say.
00:21:40Agreed. Still, it's very peculiar, they say.
00:21:43Each one the same. Small wounds to the body.
00:21:46Upon examination, entirely devoid of blood.
00:21:50It's their theory some new kind of rat has come ashore.
00:21:53Of the six-foot variety.
00:21:55We call those bureaucrats in France.
00:22:00Gentlemen, well, you all know Louis Delac.
00:22:04Louis, let me introduce you to Mr. Lestat de Liancourt.
00:22:08We met already, Mr. Anderson, sir.
00:22:10In front of a florist, wasn't it?
00:22:12We both wanted the last bouquet of lilies.
00:22:15Aren't you gonna ask the alderman how his head is, Louis?
00:22:18Why would I do that, Mr. Anderson, sir?
00:22:21You see, Mr. Fenneman, just as I told you, you're a most discreet negro.
00:22:25Would that his doctor had the same standards.
00:22:28Gentlemen, show your cards.
00:22:32Ooh!
00:22:34Mr. Liancourt, your hand is incomprehensible.
00:22:37Oh, yes.
00:22:39I'm terrible at cards.
00:22:41Did I not mention that to everyone?
00:22:43Would you mind getting me some more of these money chips?
00:22:48Louis, did you know that alderman Fenwick here
00:22:51recently purchased both the title and deed
00:22:53to the Horton Rooming House on Villery Street?
00:22:55Mr. Anderson believes it could make a fine sporting house.
00:22:58I recommended the alderman find a managing partner
00:23:01before he committed his money.
00:23:03He think of you, Louis.
00:23:05Very kind of you, Mr. Anderson, sir.
00:23:07What do you think of the location?
00:23:09Any basic street.
00:23:11What, throwing our fetish symbols on the facade?
00:23:13Get a good margin on the alcohol?
00:23:15No nonsense, madam. Keep the girls clean.
00:23:17I reckon a man could make a decent sum.
00:23:19Yes, sir, Mr. Fenwick, sir.
00:23:21I said you'd do it for ten percent.
00:23:23With all respects, Mr. Anderson,
00:23:25you're proposing ten percent for all the white?
00:23:28Fifteen?
00:23:30There's capital investment and there's labor.
00:23:34Both has its seat at the table,
00:23:37wouldn't you say, Mr. Lestat?
00:23:40Well, I can only speak of my experience,
00:23:43which is, I'm sure, different in my country.
00:23:45For example, you fine gentlemen have heard of the success story
00:23:48that is a bon marché, shopping experience like no other.
00:23:52These men look down on you.
00:23:54I have to say, I find it appalling
00:23:56how men like yourself are treated in this country of yours.
00:23:59It's undeniable. I came to my wealth honestly
00:24:02and at great sacrifice, I might add.
00:24:04However, it was not the sacrifice of many.
00:24:06I had no partners in my very...
00:24:08Ten percent.
00:24:09Fifteen percent.
00:24:14Do you not know your value?
00:24:20Do you suffer these indignities for some larger purpose?
00:24:31And do you think two pair will win the hour?
00:24:39I believe there is great opportunity in this city.
00:24:42But to seize it, I'll need protection from the wolves.
00:25:00And that's all to say,
00:25:01and forgive me, Monsieur de Pontelac, for my bias,
00:25:03but where is the business if there is no capital?
00:25:05It does not exist.
00:25:07All right, boys, show him.
00:25:13Full boat, Mr. Dulac.
00:25:18He wouldn't tell me how he did it,
00:25:20his trick to make the world stop.
00:25:23In time, Louis, patience, Louis,
00:25:25ask me next week, Louis.
00:25:27You started hanging out.
00:25:29He was in love with my city
00:25:30and wanted to know everything he could about it.
00:25:33So you played docent to the gentleman vampire.
00:25:36He had not revealed his vampire nature yet.
00:25:39I'm assuming you only met at night.
00:25:41It's New Orleans.
00:25:42Days are for sleeping off the previous evening's damage.
00:25:45Perfect cover for a vampire.
00:25:47Racing ahead again, Mr. Malloy.
00:25:49Let the tale seduce you,
00:25:52just as I was seduced.
00:25:56Money would arrive, wired from France,
00:25:58and the shopkeepers, who would usually close at sunset,
00:26:01were very happy to accommodate him.
00:26:03He ransacked the import houses to furnish his townhouse,
00:26:07ravaged the booksellers of their oldest volumes for a library,
00:26:10and, with encouragement,
00:26:13updated his wardrobe to the fashion trends of the season.
00:26:17It was a cold winter that year,
00:26:19and Lestat was my coal fire,
00:26:21and I found myself for the very first time,
00:26:24to anyone other than Paul,
00:26:26confiding my struggles to another man.
00:26:32I was being hunted,
00:26:34and I was completely unaware it was happening.
00:26:40I'm switching rooms.
00:26:41I don't need to hear you and your girl mad, making noise.
00:26:43You'd have to be home to hear that.
00:26:44I come home nice.
00:26:45You come home some nights,
00:26:47out catting with some white man, I hear.
00:26:49He ain't white, he's French.
00:26:50Oh, that's a new kind of white, is it?
00:26:53French white?
00:26:54He different.
00:26:55Invite him over for dinner.
00:26:57Mother loves your opinion.
00:26:59Oh, tell Levy you fishing for a richer man.
00:27:02Fishing for a richer man.
00:27:04Don't deny your sister.
00:27:06I want to meet this French white.
00:27:08I'm not bickering with you.
00:27:10I'm just trying to give you the word of the Lord.
00:27:12I'm just, yes.
00:27:13Yes.
00:27:14No.
00:27:15Paul crawled up on my bed last night.
00:27:24Wet for good and out.
00:27:26He ain't taking you getting married.
00:27:29Levy told me of a place.
00:27:31Over in Gretna.
00:27:33Takes in men like Paul.
00:27:35We saw some crazy person's house last night.
00:27:36How'd that work last time, huh?
00:27:38He come out worse than before.
00:27:40Gretna.
00:27:41Ain't happening.
00:27:43The cross for you.
00:27:44Yes, you.
00:27:46I worry.
00:27:47I worry so much.
00:27:48Worry about your own life.
00:27:51Worry about being a bride.
00:27:54Worry about what you gonna wear
00:27:57in London, in Paris, Florence.
00:28:01Now, y'all gonna be a steerage out of New York.
00:28:03Once you get to Europe,
00:28:04it's first class on boats, trains, and hotel rooms.
00:28:07What did you go and do?
00:28:09Just put the band by the deck and the pool by the fountain.
00:28:17Maman, I'm going around the world.
00:28:28I can't thank you enough, Maman du Lac.
00:28:30I never been east of Alabama,
00:28:31and now I'm going to see the pyramids.
00:28:33Oh, I think every young family deserves a little adventure.
00:28:37Wouldn't you say, Monsieur Leoncou?
00:28:39Oui, madame.
00:28:40My mother, she gave me every advantage in life
00:28:43as a young man.
00:28:44My first mastiff, first flintlock rifle,
00:28:47the means to make my way to Paris.
00:28:49It was Louis that purchased your holiday, Levy.
00:28:51It's Louis who controls the money.
00:28:53No, ma Levy.
00:28:54And I don't know who gave you the right
00:28:55to call our mother your mother.
00:28:56She's not your mother yet
00:28:57and will never be your scientific mother.
00:29:00Pa.
00:29:03I do love this bouillabaisse.
00:29:05What?
00:29:07Down here, we call it gumbo.
00:29:09We had a gumbo the other night, didn't we, Louis?
00:29:11Right after the opera.
00:29:12Oh, we got Louis to an opera.
00:29:14You're wrong, Tom.
00:29:15About some blind princess
00:29:16didn't know she was a princess.
00:29:18Stomach got grumbling that halfway through.
00:29:20And what exactly is the nature of your relationship
00:29:22with my brother, Monsieur Leoncou?
00:29:25Your brother and I have been discussing
00:29:29a few investment opportunities.
00:29:31The birds asked me to ask you.
00:29:34I wasn't being rude.
00:29:37Monsieur Crenier, would you tell me
00:29:40how you came to propose to this delightful young woman?
00:29:43Oh, Monsieur Yon.
00:29:44Are you one with Christ, Monsieur Leoncou?
00:29:46How about you shut your damn mouth?
00:29:48Louis?
00:29:50That's all right, Louis.
00:29:51Madame, the birds speak for him.
00:29:55I came to know Christ in a monastery.
00:29:59I wanted to be a priest, just like you, Pa.
00:30:05And under the guidance and discipline
00:30:07of the monks who lived there,
00:30:09I came to memorize both the Testaments,
00:30:12the writings of Assisi, Aquinas, Erasmus,
00:30:18all the saints and scholars.
00:30:22My father, a vulgar man,
00:30:26did nothing much of this education.
00:30:28And so he and my brothers conspired to pull me out.
00:30:33Lock me away.
00:30:35Where between beatings, starvations,
00:30:37and the failure of Christ to intercede
00:30:39the beatings and starvations, I slowly forgot
00:30:42all about the Testaments, Assisi, Aquinas,
00:30:46Erasmus, all of it, Pa.
00:30:48And so, to answer your boring question,
00:30:50there is an ocean between Christ and myself.
00:30:52Stop!
00:30:53J'espère que cela satisferra.
00:30:54Dois-en parcher dans la cage de votre esprit.
00:30:56Don't do that, chérie.
00:31:00Now we're my friend.
00:31:02You understand?
00:31:12I am cursed with my father's temper.
00:31:15And the rudeness is all mine.
00:31:17That's all right.
00:31:18It's the humidity, it does that sometimes.
00:31:21Why don't we have some ice, Juan?
00:31:23And Levy here can tell us all again
00:31:26how he won my joy child's heart.
00:31:33I fear your family has taken a permanent offense at me.
00:31:36When Paul ain't picking at his plate,
00:31:38he's picking a fight.
00:31:40If I had your tricks, I'd have done the same.
00:31:42If I had your tricks, I'd have done the same.
00:31:44You must envy him.
00:31:46Boy thinks God speaks to him through birds in his ear.
00:31:48And how you figure envy?
00:31:50The liberty he has with his thoughts.
00:31:52However misshapen they may be,
00:31:53your brother has no shame in sharing them.
00:31:55You saying I got shape?
00:31:57The lie you told about leaving the Opera House early.
00:31:59You were near weeping when the curtain fell.
00:32:01Why hide that from your family?
00:32:03Don't everybody need to know what I do?
00:32:05Dishonesty brings dishonesty.
00:32:07They sit in judgment.
00:32:08Paul's the only one to say it to my face,
00:32:10but I know my mind, Grace, take it too.
00:32:12My daddy ran our sugar business in a swamp before he passed.
00:32:15We were four months,
00:32:17four months from going bankrupt
00:32:19if I didn't do something.
00:32:21You don't need to defend yourself to me, Louis.
00:32:23I know what you go through
00:32:24to keep your family ignorant in their comfort.
00:32:26It ain't easy, the work I do.
00:32:28Nothing but broken souls around me,
00:32:30and the ones that ain't broke, greedy, bone tired.
00:32:35Drink up, my good man.
00:32:37The earth's a savage garden.
00:32:39The earth's a savage garden.
00:32:45You did good getting off that boat when you did.
00:32:48St. Louis is dull as dishwater.
00:32:51Yes, I feel quite at home here.
00:32:55Should we have a nightcap?
00:32:57I don't know.
00:32:59I've probably had enough for the night.
00:33:01Gotta make my rounds back on liberty.
00:33:04You must, Louis.
00:33:06I bought you a gift.
00:33:08A flower.
00:33:10A flower.
00:33:37That's a nice music box you got there.
00:33:39He's one of the few things I brought with me
00:33:41from the continent.
00:33:43What's that little song playing?
00:33:45Do you like it?
00:33:47I composed it for a young violinist I once knew.
00:33:50A boy of infinite beauty and sensitivity.
00:33:55I believe that is for the lips, Miss Lily.
00:33:57I don't like the way mine look plain.
00:34:00I must do like them mine when I do it.
00:34:04A pair of misfit beauties.
00:34:07I can see why you both run to the other.
00:34:10Does Carol know you're here, Lily?
00:34:12I can assure you the fair play has been
00:34:14handsomely compensated for the evening.
00:34:18Sent the two horse carriers to pick me up.
00:34:20Felt like the queen of the quarter.
00:34:26That's all, Mr. Lincoln.
00:34:28You and me usually just talk.
00:34:30Why is that, Louis?
00:34:32What kind of a man wastes his waste with words?
00:34:36A beautiful man.
00:34:44There's nothing to be nervous about.
00:34:46The curtains are closed.
00:34:48The servants sent home.
00:34:50Even the planets and stars are blindfolded.
00:34:53That's your thing, then? You like to watch?
00:34:58I've been watching you for some time now, Louis.
00:35:01From river to lake, lake back to river.
00:35:04Looking for my companion heart.
00:35:06How do you do that?
00:35:07Do what?
00:35:08Do what?
00:35:10Get my head like that.
00:35:12Such a pretty head.
00:35:34Come on.
00:36:00That's fine, love.
00:36:04Sleep well, Miss Lily.
00:36:34I love you.
00:37:04Evening.
00:37:35It bears repeating,
00:37:37I did not consider myself a homosexual man at the time.
00:37:41I mean, I had had experiences,
00:37:44guilt, shame,
00:37:46floating on a sea of vodka-type encounters.
00:37:50Obviously, I've come to embrace my sexuality.
00:37:53Of course, you know that.
00:37:55We met at a gay bar, didn't we, Daniel?
00:37:57It was a good place to score. I did what I had to.
00:38:00You been married?
00:38:02Twice.
00:38:04But we're not here for me, are we?
00:38:08When you were using drugs, Mr. Malloy,
00:38:12do you remember the best you ever had?
00:38:15Berkeley, 1978.
00:38:17Some Mexican black tar that Carly and Pedro were slinging.
00:38:21So, imagine that flowing inside your veins again.
00:38:27Now, multiply it
00:38:30by miles
00:38:32to the rings of Saturn and back.
00:38:39He had taken what he called un petit coup,
00:38:42the little drink.
00:38:44Not enough to kill me,
00:38:46but just enough to keep him fit.
00:38:49It takes an enormous amount of restraint for us,
00:38:53the little drink,
00:38:55and for a human experiencing it for the first time,
00:38:58it was unsettling.
00:39:01And not for the physical toll on my body,
00:39:04which was significant,
00:39:06but for the feelings of intimacy it awoke within me.
00:39:12I had never allowed myself to feel emotionally close to anyone,
00:39:17much less a man.
00:39:19I had no room for feelings like these in my life.
00:39:23You could be a lot of things in New Orleans,
00:39:26but an openly gay Negro man was not one of them.
00:39:32I vowed never to return again.
00:39:35I shut that night out of my mind
00:39:38and turned my attentions back to life as it was before.
00:39:43One, two, three, jump!
00:39:56Thank you.
00:40:02We are missing my father today.
00:40:05He's supposed to dance with me to start the night off.
00:40:08I'm trying not to cry now.
00:40:10And I thought the best way to honor Daddy
00:40:13would be to make my brothers do the work.
00:40:17Half of y'all don't know this,
00:40:19but these no-good boys used to shuffle for pennies on Sunday,
00:40:23and they called themselves the ABCDEFG.
00:40:28Oh, yeah. ABCDEFG.
00:40:30All the boys come dancing every day for God's sake.
00:40:34I remember their collection hat didn't always make it to the collection plate.
00:40:37That's right.
00:40:39Follow it.
00:40:42Oh, please.
00:40:45It's for me, my wedding day.
00:40:50All right!
00:40:53All right.
00:40:59Shoes are tight.
00:41:01Oh, the shoes is fine. It's the feet that's fat.
00:41:04Hey, what kind of rhythm you want, boss?
00:41:06We play it loud so they can't hear our feet.
00:41:12All right.
00:41:19Hey, come on.
00:41:23Hey!
00:41:30Hey!
00:41:38All right. Okay.
00:41:44You got it.
00:41:49Oh!
00:41:53I can't do it.
00:41:55Okay. We ain't gonna do it.
00:41:57We ain't gonna do it.
00:42:09That's it.
00:42:11All right.
00:42:26Thank you.
00:42:29Whoo!
00:42:42I'm gonna miss you.
00:42:44Don't talk. I have to concentrate.
00:42:46It's them three pieces of checker cake holding you back.
00:42:49Five pieces of checker cake,
00:42:51a pompano fillet,
00:42:53three boudin,
00:42:55dirty rice,
00:42:57beef, three beef,
00:42:59five, six wines.
00:43:01If you eat anything else, the buttons on your vest
00:43:03gonna pop off like catnip balls.
00:43:05Take down the neighborhood.
00:43:089,517.
00:43:12That's how many days we've been in this house.
00:43:14You do that math all by yourself?
00:43:17Remember that day I got taller than you?
00:43:19Always bringing that up.
00:43:21Shot up like a nut all up.
00:43:23Daddy said I was gonna look down on you for the rest of the days.
00:43:25Yeah, yeah. Half an inch.
00:43:27That was a good month.
00:43:29Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:43:31That was a good month.
00:43:33That was a good month.
00:43:35Half an inch.
00:43:37That was a good month, that month.
00:43:43I think you should get married next.
00:43:45Do we now?
00:43:47You should marry hazel. Hazel? Who that?
00:43:49The one you were dancing too close with.
00:43:51If you dance that close, you ought to be married.
00:43:54I didn't catch her name.
00:43:56Well, it's hazel.
00:43:59You still doing business with that man Lestat?
00:44:03Nah, didn't work out.
00:44:07That's good.
00:44:10Is he the devil?
00:44:12You think everyone's the devil.
00:44:14He's here to take souls. He told me so.
00:44:16He spoke to me without moving his lips.
00:44:18He got tricks is all.
00:44:21Mortal sins must be confessed, louie.
00:44:24Ain't never gonna stop.
00:44:27You think levy loves her enough?
00:44:29No, grace needs a lot of love.
00:44:31I do.
00:44:33You think he's giving her everything he's got inside him?
00:44:37Mm-hmm.
00:44:46Mother made a good party for grace.
00:44:48Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:44:50It was good.
00:44:52It was good.
00:44:54Mother made a good party for grace.
00:44:56Yeah, they gonna talk about this one for years.
00:44:59Yeah.
00:45:06I love you, louie.
00:45:08I love you too, baby brother.
00:45:16I ate too much chicken, kate.
00:45:19Paul.
00:45:21Paul!
00:45:25Paul!
00:45:32That was the last sunrise I ever saw.
00:45:35Perhaps the kindest thing the dark gift has given me.
00:45:43I don't miss the sun.
00:45:45I don't miss the sun.
00:45:48The reminders it carries.
00:46:08I've seen death over and over and over and over again.
00:46:16It's boring.
00:46:18That'll make a great blurb.
00:46:20The diagnosis you received, daniel, it winds your clock.
00:46:25This virus has turned the world sideways.
00:46:28I get it. I'm gonna die.
00:46:30They're gonna die.
00:46:32But not the vampire.
00:46:34The vampire is bored.
00:46:36The human was destroyed.
00:46:40Utterly destroyed.
00:46:43I was at the funeral home.
00:46:45Everything is going as it should.
00:46:47Good men there.
00:46:48Promised me that...
00:46:50You must have said something to him, louie.
00:46:52You must have said something to him to make him do that to himself.
00:46:56Paul slipped and fell, florence.
00:46:59I don't think this is something you want to pursue.
00:47:01He was a fragile boy.
00:47:03He always was.
00:47:07And you.
00:47:09You always had to have the last word, didn't you, louie?
00:47:12You always had to take him down a peg.
00:47:14Mama.
00:47:16What did you say to him?
00:47:18Why was you even up there?
00:47:20Watching his uncle, mama.
00:47:26You don't get past the gates if you kill yourself.
00:47:30Don't you know that?
00:47:32Paul gone down the other way.
00:47:35Paul's in hell because of you.
00:47:40I'm sorry.
00:47:50Storyville lowered their hats,
00:47:52Gave their propers because it was custom.
00:47:55But if you look past those lined up on the sidewalk,
00:47:58You'd see the bars hadn't stopped serving.
00:48:00The whores hadn't stopped whoring.
00:48:02What was paul's life worth to them?
00:48:04What was my life worth?
00:48:06A street trailing the satin-lined evidence of his failure.
00:48:10Easy prey for the discerning predator.
00:48:17An elegant coffee.
00:48:18Would you tell me where you purchased it?
00:48:19Move on.
00:48:20I wait on my balcony every night.
00:48:22You've been avoiding me.
00:48:23I have been.
00:48:24Miss lily proved herself a poor substitute,
00:48:26And I don't take kindly to being avoided.
00:48:28It's my brother's funeral.
00:48:29Believe me when I tell you,
00:48:30Your brother longed for that flagstone.
00:48:32What did you say to me?
00:48:33All right, got it, boss.
00:48:34Keep walking.
00:48:42Lestat's ambush had disoriented me.
00:48:46The sermon that was given I could not hear.
00:48:50And when the gathering cut loose the body,
00:48:53I could not join the transformation of those in attendance.
00:48:57He would not let me.
00:49:00Come to me.
00:49:04Come to me.
00:49:14Walk you home, mama?
00:49:16No, thank you.
00:49:18Lily, do you mind?
00:49:21Of course mama do like.
00:49:27Didn't mean nothing by it.
00:49:28But she did.
00:49:29She just needs to put it somewhere.
00:49:32Don't let it inside.
00:49:38See you back at the wake?
00:49:45Come to me.
00:49:47I did not go to the wake.
00:49:51I did not want to face my mother's blame.
00:49:56My sister's pity.
00:49:59I wanted to grieve alone.
00:50:03But he would not allow it.
00:50:09Come to me, Lily.
00:50:13Come to me.
00:50:20Hello, handsome.
00:50:21Sazara.
00:50:22My heart broke when I heard of your brother's passing.
00:50:25Miss Lily.
00:50:26Oh, my dear.
00:50:27I don't care if she's busy with someone.
00:50:29I pay more.
00:50:30I like Miss Lily.
00:50:31And I need Miss Lily.
00:50:32Miss Lily died, Mr. Dulac.
00:50:36Two weeks ago.
00:50:39Police found her under the docks.
00:50:42Said she contracted the fevers that's been going around.
00:50:45Blood went and dried up inside her.
00:50:48Yeah, I'm one.
00:50:52Father!
00:50:53Father, they're dying!
00:50:54Help me!
00:50:57Help me, please!
00:50:58He's in my head!
00:50:59Father!
00:51:02The devil is in the water.
00:51:05Calm down, son.
00:51:06Get your breath.
00:51:08Bless me, Father, for I have sinned.
00:51:11Previously sinned.
00:51:13Sign of the cross, son.
00:51:23I'm a drunk, Lord.
00:51:25I'm alive.
00:51:26I'm a thief, Lord.
00:51:27I profit off the miseries of other men, and I do it easy.
00:51:30Drugs, liquor, women.
00:51:32I lure the men and grab what they got, Lord.
00:51:35I take daughters with no homes, and I put them out on the street, Lord.
00:51:40And I lie to myself, saying I'm giving them roof and food and dollar bills in their pocket.
00:51:44But I look in the mirror.
00:51:45I know what I am.
00:51:46The big man in the big house, stuffing cotton in my ears so I can't hear them cry.
00:51:51And, Lord, I drag my family into this mess with me.
00:51:55I shame my father.
00:51:58I failed my brother.
00:51:59No, son.
00:52:00I lost my mother and sister, and rather than fix it like a man should, Lord, I run like a coward.
00:52:08I run to the bottle.
00:52:10I run to the grift.
00:52:11I run to bad beds.
00:52:13I lay down with a man.
00:52:17I lay down with the devil.
00:52:19And he has roots in me.
00:52:22All his spindly roots in me.
00:52:25And I can't think nothing anymore but his voice and his words.
00:52:31Please, help me!
00:52:33I am weak!
00:52:36I want to die!
00:52:52Stop!
00:52:58Stop!
00:53:03Do you think God heard you, Louis, in that tawdry box?
00:53:07To this pig vessel?
00:53:09This charge?
00:53:12Do you not see how unworthy he is?
00:53:15How can you humiliate yourself like this?
00:53:23You live.
00:53:25Cut short that magnificent life she was living.
00:53:28What a tragedy.
00:53:29Ain't no fever out there.
00:53:31That's you.
00:53:32You bringing death to town.
00:53:34I give death to those deserving.
00:53:38I'm not the devil.
00:53:40You were wrong about that.
00:53:43But I can't give you death.
00:53:52No!
00:54:23No!
00:54:36This primitive country has kept you clean.
00:54:39It has shackled you in permanent exile.
00:54:43Every room you enter, every hat you're forced to wear,
00:54:46the stern landlord, the deferential businessman, the loyal son,
00:54:50the trolls you conform to, and none of them your true nature.
00:54:55What rage you must feel as you choke in your sorrow.
00:55:01The first time I laid eyes on you, your beautiful face,
00:55:05I saw that sorrow.
00:55:07I did not know how it got there or why it was so voluminous.
00:55:14I can take away that sorrow, Louis.
00:55:17I can give you that death you begged your feeble, blind, degenerate,
00:55:23nonexistent god for.
00:55:26But I can do it.
00:55:29Joyfully.
00:55:32I can swap this life of shame.
00:55:36Swap it out for a dark gift and a power you can't begin to imagine.
00:55:43You just have to ask me for it.
00:55:47You just have to nod your beautiful head and say yes.
00:55:56I love you, Louis.
00:55:59You are loved.
00:56:02I send my love to you, and you send it back round to me.
00:56:08And this circle, this home we barely had a glimpse of,
00:56:15no, it frightens me as much as it does you.
00:56:19It is difficult to explain how his words disarmed me,
00:56:24how efficiently succinct and impenetrable his argument was.
00:56:29All my conceptions, even my guilt and my wish to die, seemed utterly unimportant.
00:56:36And I completely forgot myself in the barbaric scene that surrounded me.
00:56:41For the first time in my life, I was seen.
00:56:47Be my companion.
00:56:50Be all the beautiful things you are.
00:56:54And be them without apology.
00:56:58For all eternity.
00:57:11He drained me to the very threshold of death.
00:57:42Blood.
00:57:50The blood.
00:57:52It came as a dull roar at first, and then a pounding.
00:57:57Like the pounding of a drum.
00:58:00Growing louder and louder.
00:58:04As if some enormous creature were coming through a dark and alien forest.
00:58:11A huge drum.
00:58:15And then, there came a pounding of another drum.
00:58:20As if another giant were coming behind him, each giant intent on his own drum,
00:58:26giving no notice to the rhythm of the other.
00:58:29Throbbing.
00:58:31My lips.
00:58:32Fingers.
00:58:34In the flesh of my temple.
00:58:37Bubble.
00:58:39In my veins.
00:58:41Drum, and then the other drum.
00:58:53I opened my eyes.
00:58:54And it was then that I realized.
00:58:57The drum was my heart.
00:59:01And the other drum had been his.
00:59:07I saw him sitting a length away from me.
00:59:11Radiant.
00:59:13And we sat there for some time.
00:59:17In throes of increasing wonder.
00:59:20In throes of increasing wonder.
00:59:29The end.
00:59:32The beginning.
00:59:51The end.
00:59:54I'm a vampire.
00:59:57I walked my entire life as a dead man.
00:59:59And now, could finally receive the secrets of existence.
01:00:03You alone of all creatures can strike like the hand of God.
01:00:07I did not readily take to kill it.
01:00:09You're ashamed of what we are.
01:00:10And then, my Claudia, my redemption.
01:00:13We're a family.
01:00:14No, don't!
01:00:16For a killing machine, I kind of like her.
01:00:18Am I from the devil?
01:00:20In my very nature.
01:00:23That of the devil.
01:00:25This is not a life!
01:00:27That's because you took my life!
01:00:30Embrace what you are!
01:00:32You are a killer, Louis!
01:00:36Okay.
01:00:37Did you eat the baby?
01:00:49I'm Daniel Malloy.
01:00:50Across from Mr. Louis DuPont Dulac.
01:00:55So, Mr. Dulac.
01:00:58How long have you been dead?
01:01:02Hi, I'm Roland Jones, executive producer for Interview with the Vampire.
01:01:05And this is your episode, Insider.
01:01:08There are stories out there that need to be told.
01:01:11I'm Daniel Malloy.
01:01:12Daniel Malloy, he's a journalist.
01:01:14And the package arrives.
01:01:16And inside is a great deal of history that he did not want to remember.
01:01:22I gotta call you back.
01:01:24When he was a young journalist, he made a series of tapes with a vampire.
01:01:29I think I want to tell the real story.
01:01:32He's sort of given an invitation to revisit this interview.
01:01:34And do it right and proper.
01:01:36When both have lived a little bit longer.
01:01:38And both have lived a little bit longer.
01:01:40And both have lived a little bit longer.
01:01:42And do it right and proper.
01:01:43When both have lived a little life.
01:01:44And are way more comfortable in their skin.
01:01:46So.
01:01:49A do-over.
01:01:51Truth and reconciliation.
01:01:52He's a very different vampire.
01:01:54So he's got a lot on his mind.
01:01:56Lestat sees Louis DuPont Dulac for the first time.
01:01:59Pulling a knife on his brother.
01:02:02And, oh, that's intriguing.
01:02:04There's some potential there to be a companion predator.
01:02:07Then, in the middle of this poker scene.
01:02:10You can see he has been on his mind.
01:02:12There's a shot where he's sort of staring longingly at Louis.
01:02:14While Louis is shining his business acumen.
01:02:17And he goes, I'm going to show him.
01:02:19I'm going to give him a little insight about what I can do.
01:02:21These men look down on you.
01:02:23I find it appalling how men like yourself are treated in this country.
01:02:26So he does a little vampire parlor trick, as it were.
01:02:30I believe there is great opportunity in this city.
01:02:33But to seize it, I'll need protection from the wolves.
01:02:39There is a sort of predator angle to this.
01:02:41Louis fully admits it later. I was being hunted.
01:02:44Lestat would not see that.
01:02:46Lestat would say, I was courting him.
01:02:48Come to me, Louis.
01:02:49That takes Louis to a place where he finds the church is the only place he can go.
01:02:53Help me, please. He's in my head, father.
01:02:56Lestat has entered his mind, heart, and soul.
01:03:00And he wants it out. And he's feeling great regret.
01:03:02I lay down with the devil.
01:03:04Help me! I am weak!
01:03:08And I want to die!
01:03:10He just pours it out, screaming to a god he hasn't talked to in a long time.
01:03:18Lestat has a very different idea about organized religion.
01:03:23Discharge!
01:03:25Do you not see how unworthy he is?
01:03:28How can you humiliate yourself like this?
01:03:30We are catching Lestat at a very vulnerable and emotionally out of control moment.
01:03:34And he takes it out on these two priests in front of Louis.
01:03:39And then has to make a very, very quick and aggressive 360 and try to really give the big pitch.
01:03:46I can swap this life of shame.
01:03:49Swap it out for a dark gift and a power you can't begin to imagine.
01:03:54He manages to pull it off.
01:03:56The idea of being seen, the idea of him being loved.
01:04:00Be my companion.
01:04:04You are the beautiful things you are.
01:04:06And despite the barbaric scene, as he says, he got him at the right moment.
01:04:15And we sat there for some time in throes of increasing wonder.
01:04:21The end.
01:04:25The beginning.
01:04:36The end.
01:05:06The beginning.
