Absolutely living for the fact that Laszlo stole the flannel shirt from the corpse of one of his idols to impress his other idol, but it wasn't slutty enough so he added a little gay cravat to top it off. never change king
something i never considered until this episode is…. Marwa knows.
like, the djinn wish made her like everything nandor likes, but as we all know about djinn wishes, you have to be super specific about your wording or it’s gonna come back to bite you on the ass somehow. Marwa now likes everything nandor likes, but there were no caveats in the wish about her awareness of it. he can change her mind but he can’t stop her from wondering why her mind was changed.
i think the man cave scene in this episode is a perfect and chilling reminder (as well as moment of foreshadowing) that she still has her intellect and her agency, and KNOWS that nandor has taken her free will when it comes to the things she likes. Marwa possesses deep practical and emotional intelligence, so the fact that she is slowly kenning to how and why her feelings changed so rapidly the night before the wedding makes sense. the look she gives nandor right before closing and locking the door is one of recognition as well as condemnation.
she knows what he did and will make him suffer for it until it is undone.
man the simon the devious reveal retroactively makes this episode SO much funnier. nandor acting out how he wants to be fucked against his bar in front of this poor random human guy who absolutely didn't sign up for this? awful, gives me secondhand embarrassment for everyone involved. but on the other hand, SIMON THE DEVIOUS having to sit through nandor's pantomime of his sexual fantasies while having to act like this is a perfectly normal conversation to have, all so he can get his hands on a cursed hat made out of a witch's skin? 10/10 peak comedy. this man went through the most awkward however many days of his life and he signed up for that WILLINGLY. the dedication.
simon doing so much just to get the witch hat and being so into the little script he's made is so funny when you think about how nadja did the exact same when trying to convince the principal to let colin attend school. the vampires are apparently super into roleplay and they take it very seriously
laszlo’s witch hat is the Chekhov’s Gun of wwdits except instead of going off and killing someone it’s a foolproof indicator that simon the devious WILL be in the episode

I am no longer a nandermo shipper. Nandor the Relentless is Public Enemy #1 and I hope someone kills him for what he's done.
In the end, I don’t think that Nandor and Guillermo are endgame. I’m talking like season 6 shit. This episode I feel like really put in perspective all their fucked upness and they will return to the status quo because that’s what they always do but they’re never going to be together together. I think that at some point (season 5?) Nandor will realize his feelings for Guillermo (I’m in the camp of Guillermo already did last season) and then maybe in season 6 we’ll see the confession.
But they won’t be in an actual relationship. They never could, it was never the right time, never the right dynamic. And that adds to Nandor’s tragedy. He wants, he needs, someone to spend the rest of his life with. Maybe that person could have been Guillermo, but not under these circumstances, and he’s gonna figure it out.
While everyone is re-discovering that Nandor is in fact still a moron of an undead warlord who takes what he wants and leaves devastation in his path (shocking), I'm gonna go against the grain and keep playing in my own little sandbox like the lil meta goblin I am.
Let's look back at Guillermo this season so far.
Guillermo is probably my favorite character and he's my blorbo and I would die for him but this episode really highlighted what his main moral failing is: he's the enabler who stands by when others get harmed.
He stood by as Nandor fucked with his resurrected ex-spouses and helped him plan his wedding to a brainwashed Marwa. When he did properly address how Nandor had been treating her, he only did it because it was now affecting him and his relationship. He never cared about Marwa, just like he doesn't care about any other human victims.
He didn't step in and end it when Laszlo & Nadja were pushing Colin as a child performer, even after saying he would be a good parental figure and keep him safe.
The money he stole and use to buy himself nice things was technically mostly earned by Colin. As soon as he stopped performing, the club started failing and the money stopped coming in. Sure, Guillermo probably used some of it to buy stuff for Colin too, but did he put anything aside? Maybe he did, we don't know. We sure know he bought himself nice designer clothes and an expensive-ass Rolex.
Don't get me wrong, what Nandor and Freddie did to him this episode was horrible and humiliating, I'm not excusing that. They're still fully at fault for how they betrayed him. But it did kind of come back to bite Guillermo in the ass - the way he never intervened when Nandor was using Marwa like a prop. If he'd stopped that in its tracks at the beginning, which I think he might've if he'd gotten involved any other time than just with the penis wish, a lot of bad shit could've been prevented.
He's always been like this, he looks the other way when the vampires do horrible shit, which does make him responsible just like how he's assisting with all the murders
My biggest pet peeve is when people say "Guillermo should've saved Marwa!" like yeah he should've and could've, but he didn't, because that's not who he is as a character. He just spent a whole season enabling Nandor's abuse of her. He isn't someone who cares about other humans and that didn't change just because Marwa was likeable.
We have no idea how many people the vampires have tortured over the years but I'm sure it was a lot, and Guillermo didn't care. He just cleaned up the bodies later.
Again, his main motivation is that he wants to become someone who has that kind of power over others! His main concern is that he isn't the one doing the brainwashing and torturing yet!
You think Guillermo as a vampire wouldn't brainwash people? You think he wouldn't play with his prey? You think he'd be some kind of Twilight vampire who eats rats or whatever? You think he'd treat his familiars well? You think he would only eat "bad" people? Hell no, that'd never be him.
He's an immoral, abhorrent little freak and we can't pick and choose when we choose to acknowledge that about him. It's the main reason why he is who he is and why he does the things he does
The amount of people calling for Nandor's death, solely because of the Guillermo end of things, is fucking disturbing. Like people not even mentioning Marwa but calling for Guillermo to "put him down" (holy shit), zero jokes. The real life equivalent of the Guillermo part of this is a cheating plot, but actually less bad than that would be because of clones and good intentions. What the fuck is wrong with some of y'all.

Nandor is a clown and that's a fact.
Sorry for the bad quality, I don't usually make memes.
Okay, I'm going to drop it all or nothing and either I'm right or I'm wrong. I think I can roughly predict which path the nandermo arc will take. It seems to me that all the released episodes slowly led to the scattering of Nandor's feelings (whether openly in front of Guillermo or just as feelings visible only to the audience). I heard that episode 9 is called "Freddie" and something tells me that something big is going to happen in this episode. This episode already seems important to me, given that this is the penultimate episode of the season and they are very fond of cliffhangers. I think they're going to end the season with a lot of awkwardness and/or drama between Nandor and Guillermo. No matter if it's because Nandor and Guillermo will break loose and do something they won't acknowledge, as many say, the last episode is called "Memories" (in one of the first episodes, we were hinted that the connection of a vampire with a vampire hunter seals the memories of a vampire and I don't think it's just that), but who knows, maybe it's just because Nandor will yearn for Guillermo and reminisce about their times together, but they're going to be left with a metaphorical elephant in the room. And in season 5 they already (after the drama, of course) finally, tired of running from each other, will talk and get together. Maybe that's why we were told that there will be no canon nandermo in the series yet (well, or we were just gaslighted), but I very much doubt that the nandermo will become a couple this season, there are too few episodes left, and they love drama, despite the fact that this is a comedy. I said everything.
Nandor really breaks all the boundaries of stupidity now, doesn't he?
Spoilers alert:
He just couldn't come up with anything better than: "Why should I admit that I'm jealous of Guillermo, let me just steal his boyfriend and remake my poor wife completely."
I just don't have the nerve for this man. We should start donating brain cells.

Guillermo “I've never, in my whole life, ever, had a long-term boyfriend. And you find a way to make it about yourself” de la cruz :(
So I just finished episode 1 of season 4 of wwdits and the whole guillermo being nandors best man but needs to find a wife felt like a beginning of a fanfiction and I know it's not gonna go in the way that I hope it will (at least not yet). In need that fic. Does it exist? Without spoilers that is.
Also I think guillermos entire parental instincts kicked in when he saw laszlo with the child.
