How likely are these two things to happen in Season 4?
Hey!
I'm excited to see what they're planning for us in Season 4, but there are two things I really need to see addressed, and I'd love to hear your thoughts.
Basically, my two questions are:
- How likely do you think it is that we'll get answers to these two questions in Season 4?
- And what do you think they'll reveal about these two things? Do you think they'll stay relatively faithful to the books, or do you expect them to go in a completely different direction?
1) More information about the trial.
Not necessarily a full revisit, but at least a few lines that reveal what actually happened for Lestat. Was he threatened by the coven / Armand? Did he come to Paris in the first place because he needed Armand's help after Louis and Claudia tried to kill him?
There are so many hints in Seasons 2 and 3, yet we still don't have any clear answers, and the fandom is incredibly divided. A lot of people still believe Lestat willingly participated in the trial, while others think the exact opposite. We really need some answers.
2) Lestat and Armand's actual relationship.
What really happened between them? In Season 3, other characters refer to Armand as Lestat's ex, and every time, Lestat neither confirms nor denies it. But there are also plenty of hints suggesting it was never really a relationship.
Did Lestat force himself to have sex with Armand to protect himself and Nicky? I honestly have no idea. But again, a lot of people in the fandom believe Lestat simply cheated on Nicky and had a consensual relationship with Armand, nothing more. That would be so different from the book and, in my opinion, would contradict many of the hints we've been given. Even the song "Big Boss" feels like a major clue, as does what Lestat says to Armand in Episode 4 during the shower scene on the bus.
Thanks! 🥰
