SPOILER ALERT: This is a recap of the episode, so if you haven’t watched it and don’t want to know what happens, exit now…
QUICK LOOK:
Terry’s friends reminisce about special times they had, Bill and Eric
save the vamps at camp and Jason lets Sara Newlin get away again.
Sookie tries to help Warlow. Bill says he needs his blood and doesn’t care that he’s near
death. Sookie protects her new man
and tells Bill to leave, finally knocking him out of the portal with her ball
of light after telling him to use Eric’s blood to save the vamps. Once she feeds Warlow her blood, she
tells him she needs to go to Terry’s funeral (oh, so that’s why she dressed up
like that, duh!). He asks if she
will still be with him forever and she tells him she made a promise and she
will keep it. She pops into the
real cemetery in a flash of light, literally in the middle of the funeral. Luckily, no one seems to notice except
Caroline Bellefleur who asks if that is the weirdo Stackhouse girl. She sits by Maxine Fortenberry and Jane
Bodehouse. We find out Hoyt is
doing well and has an ugly girlfriend.
Alcide shows up and asks if the seat next to Sookie is taken. She thanks him, but tells him she is
saving it for Jason. Maxine and
Jane almost eat Alcide up because he “smells like a real man”.
Reverend Daniels begins the ceremony by talking about how
much Terry loved his family. Andy
and Sam speak and we flashback to when Terry came back from the war and was
living at Fort Bellefleur. Terry
couldn’t be around people, but Andy asked Sam to come meet him and give him a
job. After a few weird exchanges
and some fishing while drinking Raging Bitch, Terry’s favorite flavor of beer,
they became friends and he was the new cook at Merlottes. They catch a fish, but when Terry looks
at it he decides to throw it back.
He asks Sam what happens if he messes up anything or can’t handle the
job and Sam says everything will be okay.
Terry tells Sam he likes him.
Lafayette recounts the first day he met Terry at
Merlottes. He was worried about
working with an ex-marine, but he and Terry bonded once Lafayette saw Terry’s
eyes. He could see Terry was a
good man because he could see his soul through his eyes. Then Lafayette teaches him how to put
some style and sass into frying the French fries. A few of the family members speak. Then Reverend Daniels calls for anyone else who may want to
say something before Arlene gets up there. Sookie hears her thoughts and she is not ready to say
goodbye to Terry yet. So, Sookie
volunteers to speak. She tells the
touching story of Terry’s first day at Merlottes. One of the waitresses (she was so awful they refused to
learn her name) was hitting on him hard.
Arlene told him jokingly to watch out for her. He called her “red” and as she walked away Sookie could hear
Terry thinking she was the most beautiful woman he had ever seen and he was in
love with her from the first moment he saw her. Alcide is waiting in Jason’s seat to comfort Sookie.
Arlene gets up and tells the group the reason her and Terry
worked out so well was because they took turns freaking out. One day Terry could be freaked out and
Arlene would help him, then the next day she would freak out. She talks about the night Mikey was born
and how Terry soothed her nerves so she could breast feed Mikey (yuck, I didn’t
need to see a real baby latch onto a real nipple, it just felt like an invasion
of privacy). Once she is finished,
Reverend Daniels gets the marines ready for the 21gun salute, but Big John gets
up and sings a song for Terry.
Eric arrives at the camp during the day. He leaves a trail of body parts
including two arms he is carrying so he can access rooms. He finds Dr. Overlark and rips his
groin out, promising to come back in 10 minutes to make sure he bled out. He heads towards male gen pop and frees
the vamps inside. At first I was
wondering how this would work. I
mean, where would they go, it’s daytime and they haven’t had his blood. One young vampire isn’t leaving and
Eric tells him to go. He can’t
because his maker is in one of the body drawers and he’s sick. Eric looks and he has Hep V from
drinking the TruBlood. There is
nothing he can do for him so he leaves the sick vampire there and tells his
progeny his maker will die a slow and painful death. He can stay there and watch or he can leave and be free, but
it’s up to him.
Bill gets to camp and finds Dr. Overlark. He asks if a tall blond vampire did
this to him, he verifies it was Eric.
The doctor asks Bill to kill him.
Bill asks if he knows who Jessica is and if he ever treated her
badly. He admits he did and Bill
crushes his face in with his foot.
Vamps have gone crazy everywhere and are torturing their captors in
various ways. Eric opens female
gen pop telling them to “go forth and kill the humans”. Eric notices Jason is lying there and
has just been fed on. He asks if
he has ever healed Jason in the past and Jason says he doesn’t think so. Eric tells him he’s in for a treat, and
when he dreams about Eric, to dream about nice things. (Aww. Um, Eric you can come over here and heal me!) They leave the female gen pop running
by mounds of bodies. Sara gets out
from under one after Jason and Eric pass.
Eric passes some vamps torturing the shrink and tells them
to leave. He starts messing with
the shrink, but the shrink says he doesn’t care about dying because he will die
happy. He had sex with Pam
(actually he told Eric I fucked your progeny.) Jason says “you did not just go there, that’s gonna cost you
doc”. Eric pulls out the shrinks
lenses and glamours him to see if he’s telling he truth. The shrink tells him the deal was sex
for her release from solitary.
Eric doesn’t kill him and the shrink asks why. He tells him he is going to save him for Pam to kill
him. Eric hears a familiar
shrilling scream. Of course it’s
Ginger who is stuck in a roomful of vampires. She sees Eric and calls him her knight in shining armor. Bill continues his search for Eric and
remembers what Sookie said about using Eric’s blood to save the vamps in the
white room.
Sara is climbing up stairs to the roof of a building while
reciting the 23rd Psalm.
She cranks open the door to find all the vamps inside drinking Bill’s
blood. They won’t let Steve get in
to drink. He tries to run for
cover, but Eric catches him. He
says every time someone he loves dies, Steve is there and is responsible. Bill tells Eric to let him drink the
blood, but Eric refuses because Steve is a turncoat. Fighting one last time he tells Eric he won’t be weak in the
future, but Eric puts him in the sun.
Steve looks up as Sara and yells “I love you Jason Stackhouse!”. Sara looks torn and confused and she
runs as he burns and turns into vampire goo. Ginger goes crazy screaming to the point where Jason covers
his ears until she stops. Eric
finds Pam and tells her he saved the therapist for her. She tells him he takes such good card
of her.
The vamps are outside dancing in the sun. Pam asks if they have killed everyone
and Jason remembers that Sara is getting away. He finds her trying to get to her car. She tries to reason with Jason telling
him she is doing God’s work and if he interferes, God will punish him. He tells her Jesus told him to kill
her. He tells her Jesus said she
should go fuck herself for even daring to speak to his father. He puts a gun to her head. She asks what will become of his soul
once he’s killed her. He says, “I
don’t know, but at least I have a soul”.
He lets her drive away because he wants no more blood on his hands.
The vamps destroy the Hep V TruBlood. We get a side scene of a TruBlood truck
in Honolulu. A vamp eats the
driver before the group takes the entire load. Bill is in the white room clinging to life and Lilith’s goo
girls appear. They tell him his
time on earth is over, but he say’s he’s not going anywhere. He tells Lilith he did everything she
asked of him. He summons Jessica
to help him. She and James try and
give him their blood to heal and replenish him. After a minute he follows them outside to join the other
vampires. They are happy that Bill
is alive. Jessica decides to move
the party back to Bill’s place.
Eric goes to the room where he was held in the cage while
they injected Nora with Hep V. He
goes crazy and tears everything up.
Violet finds Jason (poor guy).
Pam hears Eric and realizes he is not with the group. She turns and sees him. He looks at her and she says, “don’t
you dare leave me”, but he flies away.
Next week is the finale. It is rumored that neither Eric nor Bill are credited in the
episode and one major character is supposed to die. The term “gut-wreching” has been used to describe it. A lot of people are guessing it’s Eric,
but I think he just needed some time alone after Nora’s death. I also think he may end up in Honolulu,
or that is set up for next season.
Does Sookie not have any self-respect? She gives herself over to any man that says hello to
her. I wish she could just be her
own person. What’s next for the
daywalker vamps? There blood will
be valuable to all vampires…
Until next week, bon chance!
