TV-Reviewed

This episode was much better than I thought. It was a big pick up from last week. Some people got what they deserved and others just got punked. Sam was able to find a common ally. Maryann has finally sucked her teeth in Tara. Jessica and Hoyt gets more than five minutes of screen time. Lafayette finally gets a mission and Dallas concludes. Why couldn’t last week’s episode be this thrilling?!

It begins with the aftermath of the in house explosions. There is blood and guts everywhere. More importantly, Sookie is lying underneath Eric. Eric claims he did this to protect Sookie for Bill. Bill rushes out of the house and starts attacking the remaining humans. Meanwhile, Eric tricks Sookie into sucking his blood. Like a true blond, she falls for it and is now linked to Eric. She is having sexually dreams about him and it looks like she can’t control her new emotions.  Bill is very displeased and takes his anger out on the right person. He punches Eric in the mouth but it seems that Eric does not care for it. Eric has other things on his mind.

Allan Hyde as Godric, Anna Paquin as Sookie Stackhouse

Godric is being blamed for everything that went down during his time away in Dallas.  He gave himself away willing to show an example of what vampires can actually do and not do. He didn’t count on the fellowship to be so misunderstanding and full of hate. The spokeswoman for vampires, Nan Flanagan played by Jessica Turk, fired Godric from his position as sheriff of Dallas. This leads to Eric wanting to rip her head off. Godric demands Eric to stand down and allow him to handle it. He does by giving in and accepting his consequence. This wasn’t the worst thing because Godric wanted to kill himself! Eric pleaded for Godric not to let the sun take him and even cried. Eric showed a different side to him and Sookie was there to see. She seems to always sticking her nose where it doesn’t belong and this scene was no exception. As Eric left, she stayed behind to watch the show as Godric went up in blue smoke. He asked her to look after him and she said that she wasn’t sure. Giving her gullible I’m sure she will find a way.

Jessica and Hoyt spend much of their time gazing at each other. They are looking for a way to get past their predicament.  Hoyt wants to introduce Jessica to his mother. We find out that his mom is full of hate. She doesn’t like a lot of people for many different reasons.  When she meets Jessica, they get into an argument over Hoyt. She reminds Jessica that she can not bear children which put a stake in her heart, This leads to Hoyt picking Jessica and no longer being a mommies boy. I’m proud of Hoyt for doing this and I hope Bill doesn’t get raw with Hoyt. The character doesn’t deserve bad treatment.

Jim Parrack as Hoyt, Deborah Ann Woll as Jessica

Tara and Eggs come to realize what happened the night prior. Neither of them like blacking out but Maryann tells them that it’s part of the game. To truly be free is to not know what your doing. Bliss comes with a price or to at least Maryann, pleasure. Lafayette sees the damage on Tara and quickly blames Eggs for it. Despite both of them trying to explain themselves,  Lafayette becomes enraged and tries to pick a fight with Eggs. Tara gets in between and gets slapped by Eggs mistakenly. Back at the house, they are with Maryann drinking and talking. Lafayette comes with Tara’s mother and tries to persuade Tara to come home. Tara is not acting like herself and attacks the mother. Eggs gets a beat down from Lafayette. He manages to grab Tara and runs away with her. Tara lets out a horrifying scream like she was being kidnapped by a rapist. Maryann reminds Eggs that she will be back in time.

Meanwhile, Maryann still wants Sam for some reason. She goes to free him from his cell but he is already gone.  He turned himself into a fly and flew away. Maryann spent some of her time trying to track him down. She tells her follows to bring Sam to her ASAP. Sam turns to the one friend who he can trust and not fall under her spell. That friend is a drunk named Officer Andy. I wonder what kind of pairing these two will make.

This episode I thought was better than last week. Eric finally gets what he wants and then what he deserves. Godric dies making a change in vampires rather he thinks so or not. With Jason, Bill, Eric, and Sookie all returning home, one has to wonder what they all will think about Maryann. It looks like Jason will finally get his war time after all!
