Fridge / What We Do In The Shadows S2 E6 "On The Run"

Go To

  • Fridge Brilliance: Laszlo's Paper-Thin Disguise includes his vampire fangs being clearly visible throughout the episode— but it is true that having a toothpick permanently in his mouth draws attention away from them (and naturally keeps him from ever baring his teeth fully to show them off).
    • A wooden toothpick is also, in theory, a very small version of a wooden stake, which Laszlo has previously noted is one of the most offensive things to show to a vampire— surely someone with one in his mouth all the time couldn't be a vampire himself. (It's logic that only vampires themselves would really understand, but then it's mostly another vampire that he's trying to stay hidden from.)
    • It seems Lazlo slickly gets one over on Jim by claiming a singing novelty fish is one-of-a-kind and gifts him with it to fool him into forgiving his debt...but, given that he is often shown to be very out of touch with the modern world and its technology, Lazlo likely believes it is actually a rarity worth a great deal of money, and to part with it is no small sacrifice.
    • Why Jackie Daytona as an alias? It seems out of place until you remember Laszlo is Jack the Ripper and the Daytona part is to ward away suspicion that he's a vampire.
  • Fridge Horror: The vampires have buried (well, made Guillermo bury) so many dead bodies on the grounds of the house — and buried them shallowly and sloppily enough — that the bodies rotting and liquefying over time has created soft patches and sinkholes all over the yard.
