True Blood

Bon Temps reaches a fever pitch as Maryann prepares for her ultimate bestial sacrifice, conscripting Sookie to be Maid of Honor at the bloody nuptials. Meanwhile, Sophie-Anne warns Eric to keep the lid on Bill's inquisitiveness; Jason leads Andy into the heroic abyss; and Hoyt struggles with Maxine's endless stream of insults. Deliberating on what may be his final move to save Sookie and the town, Sam places his trust, and his life, in a most unlikely ally MORE -LESS

But I promise you that from now on,

Now today, she's gone, and everybody's okay.

It's probably best you don't.

'Cause Maryann made a lot of people do a lot of things

You're in the woods. There's a woman there

Are you off to see Hoyt Fortenberry?

The sight of you is not something I wish to share with others tonight.

Holy shit.

With the crisis in Bon Temps careening out of control, Bill seeks out the advice of Sophie-Anne, the Vampire Queen of Louisiana, but must exercise patience before she gives him critical information. Meanwhile, Sookie and Lafayette find that protecting Tara from herself is more difficult than they anticipated; a desperate Sam turns to an unlikely source for assistance; and Jessica tests Hoyt’s allegiance to Maxine.

Sookie, Bill and Jason return to a Bon Temps turned upside down by Maryann. Lured to Merlotte’s by Arlene, Sam and Andy find cold comfort in their refuge from a group of bloodthirsty revelers. Bill discovers that traditional vampire techniques don’t work on Maryann; Hoyt and Jessica try to keep a lid on Maxine’s madness; and Sookie tries to push through the darkness consuming Tara. With all hell breaking loose, Jason takes the bull by the horns to rescue Sam, at least for the moment. MORE -LESS

[RETCHING] SOOKIE: I'm calling Eric.

You can come on out.

And God ain't gonna be happy with you, Jason.

Excuse me.

Get me the fuck out, you cunt,

Yay!

Really? JASON: Oh, yes.

Smite me, motherfucker.

JASON: You are welcome.

Mm.

Eggs. I gotta go get Eggs.

Keep your friends safe,

A wounded Eric plays Sookie for a sucker, to Bill’s dismay, and ends up getting inside her head. Later, Sookie and Jason bond over their recent adventures. Blaming Eggs for Tara’s bruises and bizarre behavior, Lafayette and Lettie Mae try to figure out a way to pry their kin from Maryann’s clutches. Hoyt defends his relationship with Jessica to Maxine, to no avail. Jailed by Bud along with a group of Bon Temps revelers, Sam looks for a way to escape and avoid capture by an increasingly obsessed Maryann. In Dallas, Eric and the vampires defend their recent actions to Nan Flanagan and are shocked when Godric decides to take the fall for their PR disaster. MORE -LESS

I mean, not for sure.

You might take those eyelashes out first. TARA: Stop.

I have no idea, because the only time you ever mention him

I simply object to a girlfriend who will kill you and eat you.

But that was for self-defense, not for lunch.

[ALL LAUGHING] That she is.

Seems every person in Bon Temps

Well, I'm not prepared to let him go, he's a suspect

Well, now you did it.

I don't know.

I told a lie, as it turns out.

Sookie's captivity takes an unexpected turn; Sam makes a gruesome discovery at Merlotte's; Tara and Eggs eat a mysterious meal prepared by Maryann; Jason pays off his debt to Eric.

I let you into my house, into my bed

And 10 minutes later,

Who is this?

Mm.

I offer myself in exchange for Godric's freedom.

Let her go, fuckwad!

We'll kill you first.

We are frightening.

Oh, my God.

Fuck, I want you so bad.

Hello, there.

Did you know your boyfriend hit me over the head

You're no more than a blood bag.

Retract your fangs.

No wonder they hate us.

Drunken Andy helps Sam escape from Maryann's clasp. Sookie uncovers the traitor. Sam confront Daphne to discover Maryann is a Maenad. Jason gets caught fleeing the L.O.D. church by Sarah. Eric overhears Barry's message to Bill and goes to Sookie's aid.

Sookie. So sick

And you don't seem happy about that because?

I will never again be what you want me to be.

Scared little boys with bibles and crossbows.

Yes, they certainly don't keep well.

So you're cryin' 'cause...?

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Ho-- Hold on a sec.

Mmm.

So what's your excuse?

But if you're okay with that,

That's why you'll never be sheriff, Stan. You don't think.

In the meantime,

Last thing I remember was

Just because you got a little too stoned,

Refreshments?

All I want is a couple of answers,

The-the road crew?

I shared parts of myself I never shared with anyone.

Well, she's as close to God as we'll ever get.

She's immortal, Sam.

The same way that Bill's been using you.

You too.

I need to borrow her a minute.

Fuckin'. No.

kinda against his will, maybe?

You must be Lafayette.

I'll stop ya.

Oh, hey.

You know I don't love you.

Sookie embarks on a dangerous mission to locate Godric. Bill is shocked when a vampire from his past resurfaces in Dallas and keeps him hostage. Jason makes some difficult decisions. Andy interrogates Lafayette about his disappearance, Terry intervenes.

And who is this?

People of the church, they have a way of not

Hey, where'd you say you two were all from again, Miss--?

I just never got a look at who, or what, it was that jumped me.

Because not taking the risk is riskier.

Can you hold on?

She's the reverend's wife.

and we'll see if Steve is available.

We are thrilled that you've chosen us.

You think this is funny?

Particularly in the late afternoon.

Pleased to meet you.

How amazingly exhilarating was that?

Oh, shit. Oh--

What the fuck is vampires doing selling V anyway?

Well, at-at least take a quick little look-see,

Stop fighting me, goddamn it.

Reese's Pieces, we following clothes.

Oh, that's okay. Really.

But now I see it clear as day.

While in Dallas, Sookie connects with one of her own; Jason is rewarded for his hard work at the Light of Day boot camp; Eric shares a secret about his past with Bill. Lafayette is given his job back.

Good party.

He's glamoured, can't you tell?

Every single part of me.

It's light-tight.

Hoyt?

You want to watch TV together long-distance?

Well, God needs your obedience, God needs your will

I pray Jesus isn't watching this crap today.

I just thought it would be more... continental.

Somebody bite me.

You did?

I might as well be slinging beers at Merlotte's.

Don't you worry about Eric.

Then you'll never learn.

I looked everywhere for you.

Couldn't pick up a damn phone?

Look, I-- I hate to tell you this,

No, not cool.

Luke.

Are you certain Godric was abducted

We invited you as a courtesy.

Thank you, Reverend Newlin.

Well, you look like you're pregnant.

Get on outta here. Bathtub's occupied.

She admired Jesus,

Explain.

I broke a lotta things today, it's the least I can do.

And you feel all lit up like a broke power cable.

Bill and Sookie travel to Dallas to carry out Eric's mission; Jason falls victim to a practical joke; Maryann throws a birthday party for Tara.

Sookie, do not make the mistake of thinking you two can be girlfriends.

but to live completely outside the human world

What about the aggressively ignorant people that live here?

and I feel like pancakes.

Love you more.

So Jesus made the first vampire?

- He didn't tell you? - Tell me what?

Andy, what are you doing looking through those files?

Sam, were you gonna tell me you were leaving?

- What other way is there? - I don't know,

No matter what I do I end up crying,

Here, cheers!

As far as I can tell.

I've always loved these. They're like booze for dolls.

And I will not stand by if you try to hurt any of them.

No one is going to hurt you.

It's gonna be just fine.

So you think you

Why do you want to give me your blood?

I'm on the phone.

Of course. What could you do?

And if that displeases you, take it up with a majestor.

And you're number 15.

This is important.

Well, it's Texas.

if this is a good idea.

Bill and Eric team up to save Sookie from a mysterious creature. Jason has second thoughts about the Light of Day retreat anti-vampire agenda, but Sarah and Steve counter his doubts with flattery and promises. Sam leaves town after alienating everyone. Jessica heads over to Merlotte's, where a smitten Hoyt falls for her. Tara is attracted to Eggs but is rudely interrupted by a fog. MORE -LESS

No, but this poison is similar but way more efficient.

May his holy light shine on you.

Beginning to see that was just wishful thinking.

I'm sorry.

Their deaths won't have been for nothing.

Do they make you stay here every day?

What have they done to you?

It's probably just a waste of time,

Well, is he gonna fire you?

In order to sell his blood.

So I guess you're not coming in tonight.

¶ who's that casting devious stares in my direction ¶

"how come you don't ever meet a nice girl, hoyt?"

Because it's, uh, oh,

We need it in order to survive.

Oh, sarah's pudding is a little slice of heaven.

Of vampire Bill's house.

So, uh, may I?

I'll get my uncle stitch it up in the morning.

It's like they were judging me too.

For his own selfish reasons.

And it scares the life out of me.

I'm a licensed massage therapist.

Sookie is forced to babysits Jessica, as well as the romantic inconveniences the teen vampire's presence creates. At the Light of Day leadership conference, Jason makes an impression on its ambitious leaders, Steve and Sarah Newlin. While one of his fellow campers, Amanda Jane with her band, the God Rockets, livens the spirits at camp with their hit single, Jesus Asked Me Out Today. Maryann casts her spell on Merlotte's patrons.

A shocking murder outside Merlotte's has Bon Temps reeling. Meanwhile, Sookie's relationship with Bill is tested when she learns about Jessica, and of his involvement in her uncle's death. Sam recalls a shape-shifting encounter he had with Maryann as a 17-year-old. Jason gets a sudden windfall that allows him to pay for a leadership retreat with the Fellowship of the Sun. Two adversaries find themselves sharing a mysterious dungeon and, possibly, the same fate. MORE -LESS
