True Blood

Bill discovers the price of salvation; Jason senses a vampire attraction; Sookie examines her future with Warlow; a new crisis threatens the humans and vampires of Bon Temps.

Hey, have at it, y'all.

♪ And every shadow filled up with doubt ♪

All right...

We made it, Sook.

I'm asking if you'll date me.

do you think you're talking to?

♪ I'm the last splash... ♪

- You said you were Bill again. - I am.

I may very well kill you,

I'm 800 years old

- Jesus. - I'm sorry.

I need to get back to the start.

because it turns out

- Yeah. - Shit. Come on.

in dispelling the many fallacies

Aren't you worried that you're gonna

We've been very secretive about who we are,

'Cause I don't think even Baton Rouge knows who's in charge.

They're taking our blood samples

we will find our way through these strange

from small town to small town, yeah, they're dangerous.

Yes, there is a catch.

♪ Through the days ♪

♪ Hold me one last time ♪

To apologize for the way I handled things.

Come here.

Bill tries to get Warlow away from the faerie plain; Eric arrives at vamp camp; friends and family remember a fallen neighbor in Bon Temps; Bill feels the pull of Lilith's sirens.

Thank you for agreeing to do this on such short notice.

I believe you.

I guess it takes a funeral to tame the beast within.

because I knew he meant it.

Then I will be happy to kill you, you fucking cockroach.

But when he came back--

Jason Stackhouse.

a chance in the kitchen, I wasn't so sure.

I'll fish.

- Finn: Fuck off and die. - I'm already dead. Try again.

who had some shit going on that I--

I want to be good at this job.

Well, I likes to put my whole body up in it, you know.

Anyhow, when Cousin Terry came out of the house,

I'm not ready.

I'm a telepath,

( trills )

since the second you walked into his life.

"Thou annointest my head with oil."

Please, y'all.

I love you...

One day, it was his turn to be strong,

They filter out the bad 'cause they know they're loved

try to get him to feed again.

( singing echoing )

- than I thought there would be. - Shh!

Please, this is God's work I am doing,

He says to go fuck yourself

Don't make me change my mind!

I'm not going anywhere.

( together ) Come.

Help him, please.

( playing )

Not nearly as empty and meaningless as I feared.

Sookie must make a decision about brokering a deal between Warlow and Bill; Jason gets to know Violet; Sarah goes to extremes to keep Tru Blood flowing; Alcide makes a decision that impacts Sam and Nicole.

Halleluj--

♪ But before the night is through ♪

That girl doesn't look dead to me.

so I'm gonna remove you.

Thanks for getting my back before.

I got a daytime visit from Bill while I was there.

I'm asking you to trust me.

It's like all men are incapable of just wanting to date me.

and being with you's the first time that I've felt alive--

The girl and her mother are in your trailer.

I'm not a reverend. I'm a vampire, just like you.

Then where are you gonna sleep?

I love you and I'll see you soon.

- Fuck off, I'm eating. - Okey-dokey.

And not only that.

'Sides, I don't even think Coby and Lisa even noticed.

I gotta go and open up Merlotte's,

What was that all about?

because I need him alive.

to gather your thoughts?

for you to be this fucking slow!

we'd stop by, take you out, cheer you up.

Yes, that's correct.

What'd I drink last night?

- Arlene! - Guns?

And if you decide you want me to chase this guy down, then I will,

I'm gonna become the very thing

Someone find me Governor Burrell!

in the wake of an unprecedented attack on the governor's mansion,

Hopefully I'll see you at the funeral in the morning.

- What if he wakes up? - He won't.

Eric tries to save an ailing Nora; Sam ignores Alcide's warning and returns to Bon Temps; Jessica shows her gratitude to James; Sarah exacts a measure of revenge on Jason.

♪ I'm the kind to sit up in his room ♪

is if they don't suspect us.

All I know is I saw Sookie stake you and you survived.

What did they do to you?

I don't see that happening now,

We will wipe this place down,

Arlene?

I think they just want their mama.

Maybe this time it'll be your ass that gets kicked.

Yeah, I do.

bad things from happening to me.

And pretty well. This is a lot of money.

One day you're gonna realize it.

Um, Mom, can I... just have a second?

James, um...

I always knew I'd go at some point,

and you have this humanity just coursing through you.

- Yeah. - How?

I can see the future, Eric.

I'll go back with you. You have my word.

but it cannot heal me.

Oh, hey.

Andy's daughter.

Y'all, I'm wasted.

As fathers, there is no duty more sacred

is that there will be blood on both our hands.

it's been the focus of most of my scholarship.

to my astute understanding of human desire--

which should make you happy.

just give her one more chance like you--

I have heard her name

Your Majesty.

On your own head be it.

Bill seeks advice from Lillith about the human-vampire crisis; Eric and others look into Vamp Camp; Sam makes a decision about Emma; Andy names his faerie daughter; Arlene has a solution.

♪ But I know this much is true ♪

Here we go.

( stake clatters )

how close to killing you did I come?

How about I just go through the questionnaire?

Right on.

She's in there crying to me, asking about her grandmother,

The sun's right over our heads.

Seal that knot with your light.

( Herveaux pounds on door ) Dad?

Well, I had Jenny and the meter was running...

No, I wanna remember them every time someone says my name.

- ( knock on door ) - Mm.

Oh, well, I don't have a key for you.

and then Lafayette just called

No, no, no. Not Jessica.

Arranged marriages, they were done as a matter of course back then.

Just you and me.

- ( Burrell laughing ) - Eric.

No! No! No!

The tyrant took your progeny,

- Of course it's okay-- - No, no Funyuns.

I was serious about the Funyuns.

Um, tell him there was no Marines.

Hey. Whatcha watchin'?

Caesar's Palace-style lair.

I'll catch up with y'all in a minute.

Are you gonna cure them all, Daddy?

- Where's Emma? - She's gone.

( groans )

like, "What have I gotten myself into?"

My, my. She is a looker.

I'm a vampire, not a rapist.

Fuck you and your lights.

( laughs )

What the fuck was that?

your family, us,

And I'll rip that fucking head off, too!

You gotta go, baby girl.

We're getting out of here together

Why do you think I spent the last 5,000 years alone?

Sookie asks Lafayette to summon her parents; Eric and Tara take drastic measures when Pam finds herself in dangerous territory; Sarah Newlin reconnects with Jason; Jessica seeks atonement.

I'm a fucking monster.

I didn't come here for you. I came here for him.

♪ I'm the kind to sit up in his room ♪

Bill Compton!

Freeze. No vampires out after curfew.

- Then do not walk out that door. - But I have to go.

All that was from another life.

God put a challenge in my path

Oh, God.

No disrespect, Jenny, but that ain't why I'm here.

Did I forget to mention that backwoods wolves

I have done an unspeakable thing.

What did you love about me?

I know you. You're that awful lady from TV.

- Stop that. You can't take her. - Hey, that's far enough.

Now, can you please lie down for me?

But you can't be buying what this motherfucker is selling.

How's my shooting?

Marine Corps basic training.

After that, it's up to you.

Me, too.

- But that's-- - No, don't say that it was in my nature

you feel no remorse when you kill another vampire?

You humans love your pain, don't you?

He's nobody to me.

Don't mix with you gen pop vampers.

So I'm gonna make it right.

I said I'm looking for Corbett

I will protect her forever.

Oh, shit.

What do you want?

Sookie confronts her attraction to Ben; Eric battles Burrell's anti-vampire initiatives; Andy's daughters keep dangerous company; Sam and Nicole make a connection; Bill tasks Takahashi with synthesizing a new kind of blood.

- Did you get her? - I would have if you hadn't left.

- Who took Emma? - Merlotte.

What the hell is going on?

All right, good night, darlings.

He did.

You don't need to see my ID, now, do you?

I mean, I have tons of faerie friends.

- Yeah. - Yeah.

What the hell is going on?

why didn't you let me taste your blood?

- Excited. - Hmm?

his cowardice,

Weres are the best trackers around.

When you wake up, I need a favor.

who goes all twitchy whenever one of my kids comes near?

a vampire was able to turn a fae

- That was easy. - Yeah.

And you will not stop until you synthesize it.

to get back at him?

But we have captured several vampires.

of my own mother and father...

In my arms, yeah.

in watching other people eating her food than eating it herself.

I need to ask you a question.

Look, if it were up to me,

Eric is irate about Burrell's aggression towards vampires; Bill enlists an innovator to synthesize a new type of blood; Sookie begins to learn why Warlow is after her; Sam receives unexpected help from Nicole; Steve Newlin struggles with his past.

♪ And every shadow filled up with doubt ♪

♪ Ow, ooh ♪

Danger, it's a fact of life for me,

Do you even know who I am?

None of this is ours anymore.

Can they, like, turn into wolves whenever they want,

Mm-mm, she gonna be trouble for you.

Come on in,

But I'm not wrong.

Oh, God.

( gasps )

( sighs )

Yeah.

Fuck.

It's called "glamoring."

Take a ride?

so that kind of piqued our interest.

Are you sure now?

and she is part of this pack whether you like it or not.

- Let's do it again. - Andy...

but this place I brought you to,

Mister?

That you're open-minded like Mommy?

Yeah, I was also attacked by a vampire.

Warlow believes he is entitled to my granddaughter Sookie.

Now that we know that it's about my survival,

You embarrassed me,

( snickering )

Oh. Hello, Miss...

May I visit with you?

Back the fuck away from my sister.

will you please get the fuck out of my house?

Jesus fuck, stay away from us.

- Fuck. - Big surprise.

and let the people decide.

Take the phone. Good night, Ginger.

Sook, I just realized.

I-- I get it.

Why can I feel you listening when I can't feel the others?

Jason and Sookie meet a long-lost relative; Tara is victimized by a new government weapon; Eric attempts to thwart the governor's anti-vampire initiatives; Sookie is drawn to a stranger; Alcide and Martha confront Sam about Emma's future.

against the Shreveport Bulldogs.

And he's fast and he's clever.

I'm getting it out, Pam.

General Cavanaugh said the government

with the small matter of killing a vampire god.

They're whipping her with chains and she can't get away.

you serve people food and they give you money.

only to find that you didn't know him at all.

I was wondering if I could talk to you for a moment.

Follow me.

what if you all came out?

But there is no god but God.

You're for him.

Ah!

The road didn't really cooperate last time.

I can't do this on my own.

he just came through the air

- I just heard the name Bill-- - Bill is--

Apparently not.

I'll be back.

I'm sorry.

Sit, sit.

well, they murdered their mama and daddy.

Mm, I'm just saying it's a tough fucking bird.

Hoo!

Okay, so not actual intergalactic travel,

Yes.

you can only use it once.

all your secrets, hopes, dreams.

Those were the ingredients you had to combine

I'm so sorry, Sam.

but Emma belongs with us.

out there it's just chaos and in here...

I've killed people.

that she may find whatever it is she's looking for.

A group flees the Authority compound in the wake of Bill's reincarnation; Sam, Luna and Emma evade guards; Alcide learns about the packmaster job; Andy parents newborn human-faerie hybrids; Governor Truman Burrell vows open season on vampires.

As for who I am, Pamela, that's something you should ask Eric.

( cheering, scattered booing )

then we have to take our streets back.

Calm down. It's all right, y'all.

Nora and I need to talk privately.

I read the book a thousand times.

between you and everybody else.

and we'll go from there?

because I've never laid eyes on him.

Jason!

Bill, stop!

Thank you, sister.

and just become a father one minute to the next.

which is how

'Cause if it pinches her, she's gonna be up hollering all night long.

Any chance you're drunk enough

You want something deep-fried, dipped in sugar, and fried all over again?

And my sister...

( growling )

I am no monster.

if you really mean us no harm,

( rumbling )

is to call it what it is--

18 months later, nature boys go belly-up,

Louisiana needs revenue.

But I didn't sign up for that shit!

- ( explosion ) - Man: Go in! Go, go!

I'll take a pen and paper, if you have one.

We'll find his weakness.

- Ah! - Hi, Daddy.

when you think about what short supply it's in.

I don't know why I am.

and uglier than any of his contemporaries.

Come on.

- No. - Well, that's okay.
