We see Eric walking around in some sort of Villa. Jason has found him. Eric says he needed space to
think. This is obviously a dream. Eric asks why Jason came. They talk about whatever it is between
them. Eric asks about Violet and
Jason says he’s crazy about her, but he can’t get Eric out of his head. Jason basically jumps Eric and somehow
throws him on the bed and they kiss, etc... Jason wakes up in the church with a boner. Luckily, most people have already
exited the church.
The town tries to think of a plan to find the HV vamps. Sookie tells them she found a dead girl
the night before that she didn’t recognize. Maybe they can find out where she came from and talk to the
survivors in that town and track the vamps. Alcide wants to know where the feds are, but Sam says he
hasn’t been able to get a hold of anyone and they will have to fend for
themselves. The reverend asks Sam
if there is anything the townspeople could do to keep their minds off of the
situation until nightfall. He
tells them to keep busy and be of service. He suggests they clean up the mess at Bellefleurs so it’s
ready when Arlene gets back, but they need to be in their houses by sundown. Lettie Mae wants to go check on
Lafayette since she hasn’t seen him this morning. Adelyn wants to stay with Holly’s Wade and Rocky, Holly’s
sons. Sam, Alcide, Jason, Andy and
Sookie find the dead girl. Her
name is Mary Beth Grant and she is from Saint Alice, which is about three towns
over.
The HV vamps at Fangtasia aren’t happy with Ronnie for
eating Kevin. They are rationing
their humans so they don’t starve and now they will have to go back out and
hunt again. They fight amongst
themselves. They choose a new
reaper, Betty, who used to be a schoolteacher. She heads down to the basement to pick their next meal. She and Arlene share a glance and
Arlene thinks she knows the woman, but she can’t remember how. They all panic until some blonde woman
is dragged away. Nicole starts
having cramps and Holly tries to calm her down. Poor Jane Bodehouse is having withdrawals from no alcohol
and throwing up all over the place.
Arlene realizes the female vampire taught her and Holly’s kids. She thinks Betty recognized her and
that’s why she picked the other woman to eat. So Betty may be their way out. Arlene says she hasn’t survived four husbands, a serial
killer boyfriend and a husband with a sordid suicide mission just to die in the
basement of a vampire bar. She
will get them out of there, gosh darnit!
Lettie Mae gets to Lafayette’s. She asks how he is and he says he’s okay. He asks how she is doing and she says
the Lord has shitty timing. She
tells him she and Tara had made peace the night before right before the attack
and she also says Tara’s spirit came to visit her in the night. She needs Lettie Mae’s help so she can
get into heaven and she wants Lafayette to use his medium skills to help
her. He tells her it wasn’t Tara, that
it was the V she got from Willa, but Lettie Mae insists it was in fact her
little girl. Lafayette says Tara’s
gone and she needs to forget her.
Lettie Mae says he is a selfish sinner and he tells her she’s a
“trifling drug addict bitch, through and through”. She tells him he will go to hell and he says her that’s what
this is.
Adelyn tries to reassure Wade that Andy will bring his mom
home while they are cleaning at Bellefleurs. Vince trots in and tells the townspeople that Sam left
town. Then he tells them that he
saw Sam change from a dog and Maxine chimes in saying she saw a bear rifling
through her trash one time so she went to get Hoyt’s BB gun, but when she got
back she saw Sam outside her house naked.
Vince’s idiot posse convinces the people that Andy and Sam are vampire sympathizers
who will not help them so they need to take matters into their own hands. They know all of the gun stores are
empty, but Adelyn uses her telepathic powers and hears Rosie’s thoughts about
where there are a lot of guns. I’m
thinking it’s most likely the police station. Adelyn grabs Wade and tells him they need to go, while the
others are creating makeshift weapons from the wooden handles of brooms, mops
and bar stools.
Betty is back for her second reaping. Arlene and Holly reach out to her, but
she says she can’t help them. If
she shows an ounce of mercy the other vamps will kill her. Arlene brings up the point that she
will die anyway. She concedes that
she will indeed die, but she doesn’t even know how she could save them. Arlene tells Betty she is
important. She helped Lisa after
they found out René was crazy and she taught Holly’s boy Wade how to read when
other teachers just gave up on him.
She tells them she is scared and doesn’t want to die like this and ends
up crying in Arlene’s lap. She has
a relapse and tells them she can’t help them. Arlene tells her she is going to die a shitty death, but at
least she knows when and can do something good beforehand. She tells Arlene she will figure out
some way to get them out and then pulls some man off to be eaten.
Andy, Jason, Sam, Alcide and Sookie get to Saint Alice. It is a ghost town and the town we saw
in all of the teasers for season 7 with the spray paint and chalk written cries
for help. They get out of the car
to investigate and each go off by themselves. Sookie calls them over because she found a mass grave. The vampires took and killed everyone.
Adelyn tries to convince Kenya that the townsfolk are coming
to get the guns from the station.
Kenya finally believes her and they go to hide the guns, but it’s too
late, they are already there. They
turn Kenya and she goes to put cuffs on Adelyn. Adelyn shoots her with her fairy ball and everyone freaks
out and starts to attack her.
Jessica feels Adelyn in trouble, but it’s the middle of the day so she
calls the police station. Of
course no one answers so she tries calling Sookie. Her cell phone is lying out in the woods though. The town posse has gun practice.
Sookie and her group arrive at Mary Beth’s house. They figure out that the house was
occupied less than 2 ½ days ago thanks to Jason’s pizza tasting forensic
skills. The family left a half
eaten frozen pizza they had cooked, which Jason tastes and instinctively knows
(as only Jason could) that it’s 2 ½ days old. They decide that the HV vamps must be staying in one town
until they drain it dry and then they move on. They investigate the house further. Andy tells Jason if he gets Holly back
he’s going to make an honest woman of her. He says, “a man ain’t nothing without a family”. Sookie finds Mary Beth’s diary and
realizes she and Mary Beth had very similar first love vampire
experiences. This makes her think
of when she fell in love with Bill.
Mary Beth’s vampire’s name was Henry. She reads some more and starts to find out what happened in
the town and how people started disappearing. Apparently Henry was infected as well and Mary Beth stayed
with her sister’s baby until they were attacked. They decide they should head back to Bon Temps.
Lettie Mae decides to fry her hand in order to get more
blood from Willa. She goes to the
storage basement and wakes Willa up from a dead sleep. Willa almost kills her, but then
realizes who it is. Lettie Mae
shows her hand to Willa. Willa
tells her to go to a doctor, but she says she needs Willa’s blood. Willa tells her the reverend warned her
about giving Lettie Mae blood, but she finally concedes and gives her some. Lettie Mae goes into a V trance and
finds Tara in the woods strapped to a cross with a snake around her. She speaks a language we can’t
understand. Lettie Mae tells her
she needs the answer.
On the way home, Alcide tells Sookie that she is nothing
like Mary Beth. He tells her she
had nothing to do with the vamps coming to Bon Temps. She tells him she knows the vamps are coming back and she’s
scared. He says they can keep
going. They have a full tank of
gas and they could save themselves.
She tells him she can’t do that.
Betty offers to be the sleep monitor for the HV vamps at
Fangtasia. They are sleeping in 15-minute
intervals. She runs to the
basement and tells Arlene and the rest they have 12 minutes, so they’ll have to
be quick and she needs to feed on one of them. Arlene offers and Betty tells her it has to be the femoral
artery, which is the one on the inner thigh, so that no one will see it. She takes some blood, but it’s too
late. She is to0 far gone and
turns into goo.
Jess finds bite marks on her arm. Andy gets home and searches for Adelyn and Jess hears him in
the attic. She decides to call out
to him. He wants to know where
Adelyn is and Jessica says she doesn’t know, but she knows she is in
trouble. Jess says she is going to
find her once the sun goes down and wants Andy to come with her.
Sookie and Alcide get home. He wants to take a shower and get some sleep and in the mean
time she walks over to Bills (without Alcide knowing). She wants to know if he can still sense
her fear if she is in real trouble.
Pam is in Rhone, France at a villa that looks a lot like the
one in Jason’s dream. She walks in
the gate and says “unfucking-believable”.
She walks in and sees half dressed women leaving, one of whom says, “he
won’t take my blood”. Then we hear
Eric’s voice, “you found me”. We see him slouched in a chair with
dark veins running up his chest.
He has the Hep V virus.
End credits…
WTF, so Eric cheats death by burning in the sun only to get
Hep V? Did he contract in on
purpose because of the loss of Nora?
Honestly, I’m an Eric fanatic so any way in which he dies is not going
to be good enough for me. Maybe if
he went out in a blaze of glory, which neither of these two situations are, I
might be able to live with it. And
what’s with the bite on Jessica’s arm?
Did one of the infected vamps bite her and now she’s on the short list
as well?
Lettie Mae, Lettie Mae, Lettie Mae. I guess I can’t blame her. The woman’s been through a lot, but
damn. She had finally turned her
life around and I can’t believe Willa is so naïve as to fall for the trick.
Will Sookie, Bill, Sam, et al survive the stupidity posse
that now has them outnumbered? I can’t
say I wouldn’t do the same thing, but really Kenya? You’re going to fall for the whole “They are just holding
you down because you’re a woman of color” shtick?
What do you think of this episode?
Until next week!
