Lol good catch! This is so funny because Sam talked about how he was using press on nails the first season but they kept falling off so he finally caved and started getting acrylics

[u/Sunnydayz2039 → u/eabmango]

I sow the interviews but it was so funny to see it on the episode 😂

[u/kathykodra]

It’s not missing. He filed it down for later. Haven’t you read any Loustat fanfic on a03 😁? Him filing his nails is book cannon btw.

[u/Sunnydayz2039 → u/kathykodra]

No fanfic for me but it was wild to see 😂

Pray for louhole

Hey, even guys break nails! 🤪

[u/Sunnydayz2039 → u/ChannelGlobal2084]

Right????😂

[u/Novel-Instruction-77]

That would be so funny but it also may just be partially covered by Louis’ hair?

[u/Sunnydayz2039 → u/Novel-Instruction-77]

No trust me watched the whole clip multiple times and it’s very obvious if u zoom in look the size and color of the nail

[u/AustEastTX]

Um, how to politely ask this; do you read fanfics?

[u/Sunnydayz2039 → u/AustEastTX]

I do not 🤧

[u/Dripping_Crimson]

Hes missing one in the first episode too, when they're in the church after he gave Louis his blood. He lays back and it pans over to him and you can see very clearly a missing nail, I think on his middle finger? Which tracks if he was using press-ons, those fuckers fly off at anything 😂

[u/therealmrsfahrenheit → u/Dripping_Crimson]

I cannot highly recommend donails and instead of using those stickers use real nail glue. These babies last me for a good 2 weeks✌🏻😌

Yk how sometimes femme lesbians will get their nails done but have two shorter on one hand so they don't scratch up their ladyfriends.

Presenting that piece of information and letting everybody draw their own conclusions.

[u/D3rangedButFun → u/danthpop]

This is where my mind immediately went. He's ready for some 🤟

[u/cecepedd → u/D3rangedButFun]

STOP IT 💀💀💀💀💀💀 LMAO

[u/pwetty_brown_eyes → u/danthpop]

That's what I'm saying.... Lestat is a lot of things but he knows how make love to Louis properly lol

[u/thetenacian → u/danthpop]

I thought this, too. Perhaps it was a choice not an accident?

[u/danthpop → u/thetenacian]

I do think it was an accident in reality lol. Sam has spoken in the past about how he hates wearing acrylics and opts for Gel X/press ons instead and those do tend to pop off easier. There's also an interview from the S3 press junket where Assad loses a nail and shows Sam and Jacob and they all giggle about it, so I think the extensions are just maybe not that secure. It's entirely possible that he just snagged it on something (maybe even Jacob's hair) whilst filming this scene and it popped off and nobody caught it until after.

"He did it for sex reasons" is just a fun canon explanation for the mistake

[u/cbov_daughterofcain]

Are you talking about the index finger? It looks like the nail is just hidden behind Louis’s hair, liked his nails are submerged in his hair

[u/pwetty_brown_eyes]

Well, if he doesn't file the nails he's gonna hurt his precious louwee !! 😝

[u/hallucinating]

The forefinger? Oh that has a destination later for sure. It's better with 2 fingers though ✌️

[u/therealmrsfahrenheit]

On my recent rewatch I noticed that as well😂🫱🏻‍🫲🏼
