Why Laszlo's Episode 3 Discovery Is A Game Changer

On the one hand, this could create a ton of new narrative possibilities for Laszlo, Nandor, Nadja (Natasia Demetriou), and even Guillermo, even though he can't admit he's a vampire yet. Out of the whole gang, the only one who can walk in the daylight is Colin Robinson (Mark Proksch), an "energy vampire" who basically gains his strength by bumming people out really badly — so giving the vampires an entirely new playground to explore could be extremely fun.

In the episode, Laszlo apparently spends the entirety of his day outside with no ill effects other than his beet-red sunburn, and since this was only his test run in the sun, he could try and improve his efforts next time. This gives the vampires so many more possible plotlines; they could spend the day at the zoo or the beach, and they might not need to lock themselves away in their dark house until the sun sets each day. There are a few issues, though. Not only will Laszlo eventually have to explain where he's getting this magical cure — because, as you probably recall, Guillermo's status as a vampire is still a total secret because both he and Nandor face death otherwise — but there's an important thing we all need to remember about how vampires "work" on "What We Do in the Shadows."
