The sword he has is probably super sharp so he doesn't have to really put strength into it, he probably just as to swing it the right way.
Looks like Abe gets some energy from the heart of his dead wife...

Did anyone watch the head of the CDC (Tom Frieden) at the news conference on the Ebola issue in Texas? The guy looks a lot like Eph, I almost fell off my chair. Don't go by his 2009 photos when he first got the job. Play the video on this page to see him facing forward:

I've read volume one of The Strain graphic novel adaptation of the book. I have a hypothesis about the vampire death squad. It could be a possible spoiler so it's hidden below.

Spoiler
There are seven master vampires in the world called "The Ancients" and they include The Master, whose name is Sardu. He is considered a rogue because he wants to come out in the open, the other six want to stay hidden from humans. Three of the Ancients stayed in Europe but the other three came to the New World. I can't recall if there were three in the vampire squad.

Thanks for sharing, that would give a cool spin on the show, although I doubt the show would turn in that direction seeing as it would space it out, and frankly, I don't see this one going for more than 2 seasons tops.

Its interesting how the master looks so much different then the other ancients, makes me wonder what the old man also got wrong about the master (besides the daywalking)....

There's a reason the master is so much taller than the other ancients. I'll hide it under a spoiler cover if anyone wants to know.

Spoiler
The master used to be a 19th century Armenian nobleman when he was human and his name was Sardu. He was beloved by the children of his village because he gave them presents, but he had a medical condition (gigantism) that made him nine feet tall and this caused his father to be ashamed of him. He was changed into a vampire one night while out hunting with other men, who were all slaughtered.

Maybe he uses sunblock.

Obviously he doesn't like sunlight - he's in agony while in it. It just doesn't kill him, so "daywalker" is being a bit generous.

Anyway, Abe talks too much before he's going to lop off a head. That gave The Master an opportunity to escape. I'd suggest Abe follow Tuco's advice from the The Good, The Bad and The Ugly... "When you're going to shoot, shoot. Don't talk."
