Berly and LA dive into the mid-season finale where Benny's back, living his best vampire life in Louisiana working at a Cajun restaurant! Plot twist: his co-worker Elizabeth is actually his great-granddaughter (but she doesn't know).
Sam's been having "crazy Martin" tail Benny because he just knew that vampire would slip up. When Martin delivers his dramatic "You said to look for an eruption? How's Mount Vesuvius?" line, the hosts die laughing and rewind it multiple times.
Dean goes into protective bestie mode, leading to brother drama and Martin literally knocking Dean unconscious. The real villain is rogue vampire Desmond, but that doesn't stop Martin from going fully unhinged and taking Elizabeth hostage. Benny proves he's the good guy by offering his neck to save her.
Meanwhile, Amelia's back with more confusing timeline flashbacks, and Dean pulls a sneaky burner phone move that earns grudging host approval.
The episode ends with vampire hunter lore featuring real-life "vampire hunters" that make the hosts want to yell "LEAVE THOSE VAMPIRES ALONE!"
RIP Martin and the Albuquerque mystery we'll never solve.
