'NOS4A2' Season 2 Premiere: Fans dig Vic's new man, ask 'where can I find myself a Lou?'
Spoilers for 'NOS4A2' Season 2 Episode 1 'Bad Mother'
The Season 2 premiere of one of AMC's most loved shows shook fans with a fire burning down a home, phones in ovens and the Wraith that rolls again. The episode gave a good portion of screen time to Vic McQueen (Ashleigh Cummings) and her relationship with Lou Carmody (Jonathan Langdon). We see Vic rattled as she tries to confirm if Charlie Manx (Zachary Quinto) is really dead after a toy phone rings with a call from Millie Manx (Mattea Conforti) from Christmasland. Vic leaves all the 'ringing' phones in the oven and Wayne at home and rides to The Shorter Way to stab Manx's cold heart. Thing is, when she had returned, the house was on fire.
Lou, although extremely pissed decides to be the bigger person and have a conversation with Vic instead of yelling. With Wayne calling him dad, we see that Lou is completely invested in his little family and fans couldn't get enough of him. "Omg lou is the best where can I find myself a lou .I'm crying #NOS4A2," tweeted a fan with another one adding, "Now you never see Linda and Chris McQueen having this kind of conversation like Lou and Vic...that's love y'all #NOS4A2@NOS4A2 @NOS4A2." The fans were referring to Vic's hostile parents. Unfortunately, even after this talk, Vic decides to leave Wayne and Lou in the hotel room, seemingly deciding not to hurt them anymore. The problem is now Manx has a huge opening to pick at his target, Wayne, endangering Lou's life as well.
"Now I have to go back to my normal life and study as if Wayne and Lou are not in danger #NOS4A2" tweeted a fan with another one writing, "Gonna be really pissed if y’all kill off Lou (: #NOS4A2." Some fans weren't a fan of Vic's behavior, siding with Lou with one tweeting, "It seems as if Lou is the parent and Vic is LITERALLY her dad — drinking and working on cars. #NOS4A2 Now he’s gonna take the kid and end up dead. If y’all kill Lou, I’m OUT @NOS4A2."
"I hope Lou sees his self-worth and realize he doesn’t need to be with Vic #NOS4A2 She needs help and he can’t do it," tweeted another viewer. Another fan replied taking Vic's side, writing, "I think Vic wants to be a better mother for Wayne and a girlfriend for Lou. Remember, she doesn't want to be like her parents and Wayne living in the same environment #NOS4A2@NOS4A2 @NOS4A2Fans."
Either way, it seems as though Lou loves Vic and Wayne and it clearly shows as fans caught on to the sweetest line in the episode."'I love you so much more than I love that stupid bike' i love lou so much #NOS4A2," tweeted a fan referring to when Lou helped Vic stop freaking out in the hotel room suggesting that she get professional help.
'NOS4A2' Season 2 episodes air Sundays at 10 pm ET on AMC.
