This episode of True Blood was…OK! It could have been better with more action and less talk. I think Bill spent too much time with a lonely queen. Jessica didn’t get near enough airtime. Tara is still crazy in love with Eggs.  Sookie and Lafayette have a lot in common.  Jason and Andy become closer than we ever thought and Sam does some babysitting.

Evan Rachel Wood

It begins with the queen, played by Evan Rachel Wood, getting her fun on with a filled blond. Bill asks her how to defeat Maryann but she seems more interested in Bill’s company. She tells him that Maryann can’t be killed or even harmed. It turns out that Maryann’s belief was so strong that it made her immortal. She has Bill stay longer drinking people’s blood and playing board games before she gives him any more news. Before he goes she gives him some information regarding killing Maryann. She is vulnerable when she believes that her god is coming. This would allow her to be eaten by her master. Bill thinks up a plan quickly in his head and leaves. The queen wishes to see Sookie but Bill was hesitant to say anything. Eric also pays her a visit at the end of the episode and it looks like her and Eric are going to get along fine.

Sookie and Lafayette had a hard time with Tara. Tara was cursing them to the high hell because they wouldn’t let her get to Eggs. It got so overbearing that Sookie and Lafayette returned outside to watch over the house. It was there that they got to know one another better. They both are having sexual dreams about Eric and they now know that they are under his employment. They were also a victim of Tara’s momma! Tara’s mom couldn’t take her daughter’s words and decided to earn her love and trust back by helping her escape. This turned out to be a bad Idea because Tara once again finds her way back in Maryann’s gasp.

LaFayette is still traumatized by the events that Eric put him through. Sookie and him both find their way back to her grandma’s house. There we learned that drugs is a great way to learn their friends away from the house. Sookie gets too close to the wrong person and has to knock them out before he knocks her up. Lafayette didn’t fear the same with Maryann and has become one of her victims. He does manage to kill her right hand man, Karl. Sookie finds her way to Grand’s room where she sees Tara and Eggs tearing it up. She also finds herself surrounded by her two best friends under the Maryann spell. She also sees an egg in her Grand’s bed. What does the egg mean? And what will happen to Sookie?

Sam cut his ties with Jason and Andy when they were talking about killing everyone. Once they left Sam found Arlene’s children. They were hungry and dirty. He took them to Eric in hopes of finding an ally. He did intrigue Eric enough to go see the Queen. It looks like Sam is resting on borrowed time and his fate will be ended soon. It’s like Sam is about to give up. Jason and Andy aren’t though.  They wrapped themselves up with guns and ammo. They are ready to do what needs to be done to take care of Maryann.

This episode was decent at best. I felt like something was missing. I thought that this episode could have been better than what was shown. People did their parts well it just the show felt empty this time around. I can’t wait till the season finale. I hear that a regular is going to meet his end. The way Sam was acting in this episode and looks like that will happen or maybe Jessica kills Hoyt for leaving her when she bit his mom. Whoever it is I’m sure it will be a shock!
