What We Do in the Shadows Season 6: Recap of Episode 4
In Episode 4, titled The Railroad, things take a turn when the vampires attempt to integrate into the human world. Nandor and Nadja find themselves at Canon Capital Strategies, trying out their new lives as office workers.
Nandor, humorously adopting the alias “Andy,” doesn’t quite fit in. His overly social behavior annoys his boss, Jordan. Things escalate when Guillermo is asked to fire Nandor. This leads to a mix of humor and heartbreak as Nandor comes to terms with this rejection.
Meanwhile, Laszlo and Colin, ever the mad scientists, get their hands into their latest experiment, which is, to bring inanimate objects to life. Their escapade involves their neighbor Sean, who has been pestering them for a job.
In response, Laszlo goes to extreme lengths. He sets up an elaborate fake office and hires actors to create a workplace environment for Sean. Their “monster” hires Sean during the job interview, even though he was not supposed to.
This adds yet another layer of comic mishap to the story. Thankfully, Nadja intervenes to restore some order.
